New jackson guitars website

[Louis Cypher]

The Phil Collen PC1's are still sick as fcuk..... I love em just no way I would pay that money for one...

 

[Sicarius]

Thought the X series was going to be better, but then again:

DO FUCKING WANT. Dat lime! I'm sure a pickup swap and an OFR would make this thing amazing.

I love that one. Even if it has a floyd. BUT THERE IS A THRU VERSION

but this

mmm dem bevels. If they're not too expensive, I could see myself buying either the SLST version, this, or one of those or the Warrior.

 

[BucketheadRules]

Fuck me with a spoon:

Holy shitting hell that's a cool guitar. Might have to pick one up... these X Series guitars look really, really good.


EDIT: No X-series string-thru Kelly. I am disappoint.

Actually, that's unfair because I'm really not disappointed, these new guitars look utterly fantastic.
I want that new King V as much, if not more than, my next breath.

 

[JPMike]

that Chris Boderick model is so adorable, I mean, I want one, like now!!!

P.S. That Lime is pure awesomeness!!

Is this new X-series still MIJ? Seems unlikely at these prices.

Seems that way to me, too, but the information I have is that they are. The (sadly discontinued) DK2Ms were MIJ and selling for about this much, weren't they?

 

[troyguitar]

Yeah they were $599 street but prices have increased a lot since then too.

For example look at the SL3MG compared to the SLSXMG, it's more than twice as much MSRP for very similar features. If they really are MIJ that would be great, but I wouldn't bet on it.

[Blood Ghost]

well, after checking the new X series i feel a bit disappointed... finally they release a fixed bridged, neck-thru King V, a model that i was waiting for... but, basswood body, emg hz pickups... meh, c'mon Jackson =(

Honestly, I might be looking forward to getting one. I've actually wanted a non-Ibanez Basswood guitar with nicer specs for a while, just to have a different voice for multi-tracking.

No, there's no production model like that. But you could get it through the Custom Shop, just be prepared to pay a large sum.

No, there's no production model like that. But you could get it through the Custom Shop, just be prepared to either have to become a crack dealer, or sell vital organs to medical science, in order to pay for it.

There, fixed that for you

Too bad the string-thru King V doesn't come in Kawasabi Green.

And are these MIJ? Not sure if I'd be interested if they aren't.

 

[That_One_Person]

Wow good thing I bought my KV5 since they discontinued it. I wish it had the binding though.

 

[Enselmis]

The day a bolt on SLSMG with a fixed bridge comes out, I will immediately convert to being a Jackson player. None of that dirty tune-o-matic nonsense.

 

[CrushingAnvil]

I actually like how the inlays get smaller toward the higher register frets.

The prices are fairly low...King V KVXMG is 866 MSRP...I'd say they're indonesian.

 

[Tranquilliser]

Just had a scroll through the site.
God damn there are some tasty guitars there.
I will say it though - Jackson needs to make a couple more 7 string models, imo. The SLAT-7 and Chris Broderick don't leave much for the middle price-point.
A 7 string Rhoads or Dinky would be fantastic.

I hate warriors with reversed head stocks... it doesnt look right to me man... just doesnt flow...

but cool guitar none the less.

So, pardon me for being a dumbass and not being able to fugure it out myself, but the feeling is that the 23 fret X series Rhoads is going to be built in Japan and is going to be selling for about the same price as that a DK2M was?

If that's teh case, pretty much every guitar I was considering buying is probably on hold until these things reach Europe and I get my mits on one.

If I had designed something like that I would have used a matching (in colour) regular headstock.
