News on Jackson for 2017

[arasys]

zebrawood top, fuchsia burst and alien burst are very pretty.

Only ones I'm feeling are the black stained ones. The rest, meh.

And, I have the worst aversion to zebra wood. I think it's hideous on anything and everything. Looks like cheap, 70s furniture.

Surprised no one has mentioned the 7 string tele .....

Damn, Jackson has some insane guitars this year.

The PRO Series Rhoads looks unbelieveable - just like i would order one from the custom shop.

It even has a reversed headstock and a oiled neck

would buy it instantly with the standard headstock (non reverse)

 

[UltimaWeapon]

Those reversed Rhoads OMG... and that hardtail RR24-7 *deep breath*

 

[ZERO1]

ugh no damn kelly's in hardtail... really makes me mad...

 

[StrmRidr]

That alien burst soloist is sick!

 

[Rich5150]

I will be getting this

Thank goodness it comes in white, too. Not sure how I feel about it. Just can't make myself like the inline Jackson headstock with 7 strings.

Was hoping that they would do a Double Rhoads signature but this is pretty cool. Love the metallic finish.

The white finish looks so much better with the black headstock. Would love to see this in a Pro Series or higher.

Probably because it just doesn't look that cool.

Something about it looks... off. As if it looks like a toy.

 

[cardinal]

^ it's because 24 frets and a giant pointed headstock look pretty strange with a Tele body.

Isn't that just a custom made for Mick and there currently are no plans for a sig model?

 

[theicon2125]

Pretty sure by the writing on the case it's going to be like Dave Davidson's warrior where you are basically placing a custom shop order with those exact specs.

Seems I should learn to read....


Looks like The Music Zoo is getting one. They posted on Instagram to contact them if your interested. I probably shouldn't since I have two masterbuilds on order.

 

[Nlelith]

The only thing that still bugs me is white binding. White binding everywhere. At least that Ash DK3 has black, and only on the headstock.

 

[Aso]

I would love a Jackson Explorer shape but I know they would refuse the order. They built some for NAMM this year though.

The Music Zoo's Facebook page is delivering all the goods.
