Make yourself a quick 20!

Hmm. No idea what the stamp means.
Which Titanium saddles are those? I know there's a couple of different makers out there...
No worries; my first USA bolt-on so just curious.
Saddles from Aliexpress; marketed as titanium 'alloy' - assuming it's some low grade metal composite. Does feel / sound pretty good.

Since you guys are the expert
Is there any chance that Jackson reissues some color scheme after a few years?
I'm looking after this one (it was in 2020 catalogue) as I was an idiot and didn't purchased it when it was available
Now online it's at twice the price it was when released

We never know what Jackson will do, but it seems unlikely, because those didn't sell very well. Be patient and you'll find a used one at a reasonable price eventually.

As much as that's a looker, the lack of bevels makes my right hand tingle just looking at it.

I don't know, I'm still an unfortunate not owner of any kind of V shape guitar

To be honest its probably fine, I had a KVX10 for years that I keep forgetting about and I don't remember that giving me any grief or having any massive Solar-esque bevels.
I can't believe I forget I had that Jackson King V. It was my main live guitar for years. I'll be sat there saying "Oh I've only ever had a 70's Flying V copy" or "Never had a guitar with a TOM I liked" and then I'll come across a pic of me playing the red Jackson and be like "Oh shit there he is!" and remember I played it for about 4 years!
Bonus pic of it in action from about 2005. Am I death growling? Or am I slurping all the electricity out of the PA system via the mic

In my journey to collect MIJ superstrats I recently got this Jackson Stars SL-J1.
I have never tried an USA made soloist but I don´t think one could tell much difference qualitywise between this and a Jackson SL2H.
There´s not much to say besides the usual Soloist specs. I mainly got it due the MOP inlays and logo, as well as bound ebony fingerboard.

I'm in Italy...chances are really dire
Not to mention that it seems very very hard to find a second hand V that is not battered and full of dings
If the Stars RR I played was an indication, those are identical to USAs except for the switch placement.In my journey to collect MIJ superstrats I recently got this Jackson Stars SL-J1.

FWIW I have the one with yellow bevels and I find the yellow logo infuriating, I think it makes it look cheaper and more obviously like an import compared to a white logo. Grass is always greener
Jackson do love to variegate stuff in mystifying ways though. The Heylmun Rhoads would be a slam dunk Alexi-style 7 (desirable for many on this board I'm sure) if not for the lack of binding and inlays.

the Kevin Bond is such an under apricated guitar, in my opinion. I kick myself for not buying it when I was a teen, thinking 'it wont age well with all the pentagrams and evil looking'.
I wish i bought it back then, as I still keep hunting for them all these years later

That was me.
In my 20's - those pentagrams are a bit much.
In my 40's - pentagrams are perfect for my current band!
