I think videoballreviews did a review on this ball.  It looked pretty good but video reviews usually do look pretty good.

Yes i did do a video review of it...very strong ball for its price-point!  Doesnt like any type of carrydown, but if you have fresh backends it has a pretty strong move downlane

The three colors are the same ball...but there always is the fact that color can effect ball reaction...but in general they are identical...

Thanks Bar.

Does it clear the heads pretty good? I bowl in a house that has old beat up Guardian and i've been having a problem getting my equipment through the heads.

yes it does....very good length. I could see someone having a problem on a big wall shot with it being over/under, as it does respond to friction pretty quickly...but if your shot is more blended side to side, it seems like a GREAT ball for that type of condition, again as long as there isint too much oil downlane...

The backends are pretty strong. I think I'm going to have to try one of these and if doesn't work...oh well it isn't going to cost an arm and leg to try it out. All I need is one good game on my Sunday morning league and it'll pay for it's self! Is the orange/yellow one out yet? I might as well throw the ugliest one.

For those that remember this ball, the Jazz reminds me a little of a Solution Power Plus EX.  Clean through the front but really good backend on lighter and or shorter patterns.  Not very good on fresh THS unless you have alot of hand or pretty slow ball speed.
