to possibly put some Bare Knuckle Irish Tours in...
anyone have any experience with Fret City strats? I know the CVs have a cultish following, but the J&D looks
pretty good for half the price.

I'm also interested in the GFS/Xaviere XV-870s. Any thoughts on how GFS pickups would sound compared to Bare Knuckles?

I have J&D P-Bass and, for the money, it's a fine amount of guitar. The fret ends are sharp, the action is high and it sounds a little flat, but for what I'm using it for (heavily effected bass lines in some home recordings) it works okay. I wouldn't buy one of their guitars based on my experience with this bass, since a guitar is something I'd want to be able to play live and with little to hinder me.
Personally: I go for the Squire. The two I've picked up and played have sounded fantastic and played great. They get that cult following for good reason.
