So much speculation!!
You kept the ebony fretboard! But are those Juggernauts in it? Perhaps stainless steel frets? Only time will tell...

I'll just continue speculating, but my guess is that if Jackson switched in some crappy proprietary sort of pickup then they'd also have to manufacturer the rare 7-string pickup covers for them to make the advertised guitar. Which goes against the low cost. So I'm guessing BKPs, but otherwise maybe a DiMarzio replacement, because at least last I checked it was really hard to get oem 7-string pickup covers.
I'll say this much: I was shocked at how good a job they did with the import model, and that was just the first revision. I have a gun metal grey 6 that is the final revision and it rules so much I will be using it live, and we worked hard to make this as affordable as possible without sacrificing the quality of the guitar. I'm so excited for this!
Can you say what the pickups are?
Hey all, I was kind of curious of what ever became of the silverburst sparkle models? You don't really see much of them and they don't seem to be available, was it just a limited color?
the gunmetal looks pretty rad.
wonder what the price point will be?

No but I do think they were generally less common because they were a bit of a pain to make.
I'm personally really happy with and pleasantly surprised by the price point, but that's all I'll say.
Any chance any of your siggy's will be released with Floyd'ed versions?
That 7 looks like something I might be interested in. I don't generally like Jackson's aesthetics but this headstock and the traditional inlay... why not.
Wheel truss rod adjustment is a plus. How's their neck profile ?
