NGD: Jackson USA B7

[jephjacques]

Yeah those pictures actually do the guitar justice, the stock photos always seem to make the body shape look really goofy even though in real life it's quite nice.

The fact that Jackson uses a maple top instead of laminate they used to on SL`s enlightens me. The guitar is just awesome.

You can have two thinner pieces put together rather than use a blank the thickness of the whole guitar, which is pretty wasteful when you chop out the back of the neck from the blank. It's being very economical.

Since the headstock is scarf jointed on, the main portion of the neck doesn't need to have the full thickness to make the headstock part of the original blank.

Jackson's been doing this for a looooong time.

They have also called it a "center blank neck thru" before I think. Its a neat concept when the back piece is a different wood than the neck. They have done that before too. That way you get a neck thru but only a very thin part of the neck actually goes through the body. BRJ has done it before too. Actually, is the back piece of the neck on the back of the body maple or alder?

That guitar looks killer.

How much are these things and where did you order from? I'm REALLY wanting one, and that top is realllly thick for a production guitar.

Looks like an amazing guitar, HNGD!

I (and I am sure many others) would really appreciate a review of the guitar after you've had some time with her if you get the chance.

Cheers.

[noise in my mind]

[MetalDaze]

That looks amazing. Hopefully, it plays just as well.

As Brian said, Jackson's been doing necks like that for a long time...at least all of mine look similar.
