hmm, cool, I played an 06 KE3 before and it was pretty decent, that one's a performer?

 

[Shawn]

Badass. Nice score!

I want a Soloist myself.

 

[B Lopez]

Thanks

D-EJ: Its a Professional

Also serial number is J005116, but I dont think that means '05 because my bro has had it since 03-04... plus it's beat to hell

 

[Shawn]

my guess is aroud 2000, they stoped making the japanese "professional" line when fender took over and started producing garbage.

grossly incorrect on both counts sir.

Necks on those things rock the shit, grats on keeping it in the family!

Actually, the "Professional" on the headstock went away when AMIC still owned them, but the Japanese guitars are still made in the same plant in Japan. while the quality's been a little spottier on the USA guitars since the Fender buy out, if anything the Japanese ones are better.

So far, they haven't made Jackson into garbage, other than ruining the Custom Shop, IMO.

Ah.. the old "Professional" ones pre I think 1994?? Are apparently amazing I heard, I really wanna find one of those. Not a big fan of the newer ones though

Try a DK2M. That opinion will most likely change fairly quickly.

They had "Professional" on the 'stock until 1997/98 or so, IIRC.

 

[SnowfaLL]

ah well I meant kelly's lol the KE-3s arent that lovely imo

the DK2's are cool tho.

 

[eaeolian]

Yeah, the KE line seems to be the bastard stepchild of Jackson. They were rare even back in the heyday, and without Friedman pushing them anymore, well...

"Professional" went away on the headstock after 1995, but the higher-end Japanese line is still called by that name, I'm guessing that is a 1992-95, based on the specs. The Japanese guitars from that era were really good, though they had started chintzing on them a bit by then as compared to the 1986-91 era, when they were almost the exact specs as the USA guitars.
