| _________________________________ [Dec 2,2004 11:27am - korpse ""] when i think of sg's, i think of getting off. |
| _________________________________________________ [Dec 2,2004 11:28am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] Jacksons are great for wanking and shredding, but atrocious for blues and non-twangy sounding stuff. SGs are a great overall guitar. It seems like so many guitar companies make such genre-specific instruments, but I think Gibson did really well with making a few guitars that can handle a lot of changes. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 2,2004 11:29am - paganmegan ""] I very rarerly indulge myself in a blues based style of playing so jacksons work for me, they're definitely great for metal... serves my purpose |
| _________________________________ [Dec 2,2004 11:29am - korpse ""] pagan. what kind of jackson do you have. I was thinking of getting one for my next guitar but i don't want to spend a fortune but all the american stuff is pricey. am i shit out of luck or what? i want to spend up to 900 when i do get one. |

I have a jackson randy rhoadsmodel, 22 frets, floyd rose... Its a good guitar but I like the two other frets.. then I have a 24 fret jackson soloist... free of floyd rose... so I can use the whammy on one, and the other I have two more frets to use... I love both guitars.. the randy rhoads one was about five hundred.. I think the list price is a little more, so its one of the cheaper versions, made in japan... the soloist list is like eleven hundred or more but I got it for five hundred... I saw a sick king v at guitar center for about 6 hundred once |

| ____________________________________ [Dec 2,2004 11:35am - paganmegan ""] I think you could get a damn good jackson for nine hundred |

| _________________________________ [Dec 2,2004 11:41am - korpse ""] yeah, the king v's are nice, so are the rr models but all the american ones are rediculous for price. i played the soloist the other day and really liked it. where'd you find one of those for 500? it's too bad it's jap. but i think the quality is very good. |
| __________________________________ [Dec 2,2004 11:42am - litacore ""] hahaha, "too bad it's jap" |
| __________________________________ [Dec 2,2004 11:43am - litacore ""] I wonder if japanese people make fun of the US, and in which way |

Guitar Center Boston.... during one of their special sales... I became enamored with that guitar.. I went in to get strings and picks and left with a guitar, because it was such an amazing deal... It plays like a dream, the smaller set up is good for my friggin fuckin small hands so I can reach and shred nasty |

Well, you still have to watch out for shit like that there, but they do sometimes have good deals, and definitely the best selection... I agree that daddy's junky music is just what it sounds like... junky |
