Jackson/Charvel 2018 Line Up/NAMM Speculation Thread

His 25 fret warrior is SO much cooler.

Let the record show that I was 100% on board with this:

I don't play enough thrash to justify having something so badass looking, but god I want one

It has the terrible looking AT headstock.

You shut your whore mouth. The AT headstock looks fantastic on Vs. And Soloists. Anything other than that ugly singlecut.

You're gonna love this Rhoads then. This is pretty much it.

He put the headstock on his own sig on backwards.

What are those inlays? A literal shark fin coming out of the water like Jaws? I guess that is kinda a funny double entendre on a Jackson.

Those are some sort of viking runes I believe

I do love that. Would never buy a V since I only play in my bedroom, but I think it looks fantastic.

 

[MicrobeSS]

Wish we could get his warrior as a sig

I’m not sure if anyone posted about it, but I just saw Dave D. hint that there will be a Pro series DD Warrior 7! That I could rationalize!

Classical footrest (either home-made or purchased) solves that. Everyone needs a V in their life

I really hope they upgrade the WRXMG model with ebony fretboard so its available for export from US, it having a rosewood board is what kept me from ordering one last year. Pity they dont pay the proper attention to the Warrior line, they really need a guitar in the $1-2K range, i feel like theres quite a huge jump from 800$ WRXMG to the 4000$ X series. Just upgrading the board to ebony and putting an OFR instead of FR Special would be a huge boost.

Is it possible to have too many V's?

 

[Mathemagician]

Sometimes guys out a V on their V, just to make sure they have enough.

yep, the rune for thor/protection/

Hahaha that's a great idea. A V with little Vs on the tip of each V.

Vinnie Vincent put a V on his V.

I'm all over the place with my tastes. I find that Warrior super attractive, yet I also want a JEM777 reissue in shocking pink. I definitely don't have a "type."

Charvel has a vid up of the 24-fret Pro Mods. No single cut. Pretty much a Jackson DK2M but with a Strat head, Charvel logo, and other finishes.

I don’t get the point (just you know, make them as DK2Ms?).

 

[KnightBrolaire]

another year without a skatecaster is another year wasted. guess I'm getting a balaguer.
