Very cool review, so thanks for posting. I took a Doheny for a short test drive a couple of weeks ago, and I completely understand the positive reviews. It was Fullerton Red with maple fretboard, and the shop ran it through a small Orange tube amp. I absolutely loved it, both for feel and tone. I think the maple board led me to prefer it to my Comanche's neck, which is no surprise because I generally prefer maple. I think it also had slightly lower action than my Comanche, but that's just a setup issue. Tone-wise, I thought it was very Fender-y in its twangy, spanky goodness, but I don't think it duplicates any specific Fender model. (I'm mostly a bassist and thus not an expert on all flavors of Fender guitar tone, but that was my impression.) The clean tones were great, of course, but I liked the dirty tones through the Orange too. Very cool guitars, and I hope the model does well for G&L.

A Jazzmaster body is much more ergonomic than a Strat or Tele, imo.
