New Jackson Pro line!
Anyone seen these yet?
http://www.guitarplanet.eu/news/296...ies-models.html They look absolutely gorgeous, as long as they're made in Korea (if they don't have another Japanese factory I'm thinking about snagging one of those King V's!) |
Silverburst, maple boarded Dinky? Nice.
|
If only that white KV didn't have an FR... grr.
A 3 tuner per side headstock on that would make it just heavenly |
:lurk:
Needs more Kellys though. I really love the KVMGQ |
So much want.
Too bad I like my KB Rhoads too much. :( |
So very much want.
I love Silverburst. |
Thing here is, would the prices for the X series stuff come down?
Or am I wishfully thinking? |
The only problem i'm seeing is how expensive these guitars could be. They could cost something like £1100 if they're anything like the old Pro Series. :(
|
I've seen a price for the KVMG at about £670 on Dolphin Music, not too sure if that's correct though.
|
That's actually not too bad. Are these guitars made in India or Japan?
|
I'm honestly not too sure, seeing as their Japanese Factory closed down...
I'm hoping for Korea myself, but I don't think there's been any Jackson's made in Korea. Could be wrong though! |
I've played some Krappy guitars from Korea myself. I really hope its Japan that they're made in.
|
Will have to wait for further info, but I'm not hoping for too much, well except a seven string Rhodes
|
Yeah, Jackson need to build more 7 string guitars. I liked the SLAT7 i played one time, although Tom didn't like it much. He says it just wasn't the guitar for him.
|
They are doing a SLAT7 in the X series, but I was hoping for a V as a seven string, but I'm torn between picking one of these Pro guitars (depending on Prices), an LTD V-307 or a BC Rich Jr V7...
Tough choice :D |
that chlorine burst dinky looks absolutely awesome. Also i'm glad they have frt-x000s instead of those jackson trems (frts aren't amazing, but they're better than the jt580LP, and also should be a direct swap for an OFR). EDI:T: also JB/59 or EMG 81/85 in everything isn't exactly exciting me. But still better than worse stock pickups.
Need to see where they're made, though. I also suspect they'll be pretty dear, at least in this part of the world (UK/Ireland/Europe). |
I see no reason at all to get those guitars over a used Ibanez Prestige. (speaking from an American's standpoint)

True, I guess some like pointy guitars? |

yeah that's why i'm very concerned to see where they're made (and also a rough price). If they're around the £500 mark (and i strongly suspect they'll be more) and they were japanese, that'd be awesome. Unfortunately I suspect they'll be £600-£700 and not MIJ. |
