I've seen a few of the RC JP104 fairways appearing used around the place. I understand that these are 'old' RC JDM models sold through RC USA, but was interested to know if anybody had thoughts on their performance vrs the current models? Are they a cheap way to get a decent JDM club or just an afterthought from RC USA?

if they are anything like the rc 304p they released here for pro players

then my god yes, and they arnt cheap!

i think they also dod a 304t which was the watered down version

but he 304 p is absolutely fantasic

They do perform decently just not nearly as well as the newer product RC has to offer. If you look at the "History of RC Japan" nothing is exactly the same as the JP104 but it's using the same material and cut away portion on the sole introduced over 15 years ago. There was some internal strife over the quality of the JP Driver & FW which resulted in a couple of people leaving prior to RC coming to the states.
