I'd really love one of these, and I was wondering about it's tonal characteristics, does anyone play one who can help me out?

I have the sunburst model and it is the best Jazzmaster for the money. It's very simple. The neck pickup is very mellow like a normal JM. The bridge pickup tone is similar to a Les Paul. The middle position is just jangly bright tone. They are awesome guitars and the trem stays in tune perfectly. It is my first Fender and I'm very proud of it.

Thanks man, would you say that is has a 'warmer' sound than say a stratocaster?

Definitely warmer.
Just purchased the Sunburst one.

But,IMO, the humbucker is kinda too hot for a general Les paul pickup tone.
Nothing like Duncan SH-1/4. As the description of Fender site, it's aggressive.
