I got my Mahogany Jackson copy. I am putting in my JB from the ash guitar tonight or tomorrow. This one is a little heavier and mohogany. Even with the floyd it should be a little warmer with the jb I am fired up!

There is a tradition here that anyone who has got a new guitar must post pictures of their said acquisition or risk the wrath of fellow forum members -

Anyway let see how is looks with the Duncans in and you will be forgiven!!

Re: Got my Jay Turser!

I will do that soon once I get the jb in so I can escape the wrath! I am now trying to figure out what is what inside there. I have never messed with a 5 way switch. It really looks nice the floyd will also take a little time.

Re: Got my Jay Turser!

How did the stock pickups sound? Was the setup good or bad?

Re: Got my Jay Turser!

The stock pups sounds weaker than the JB and more high end, almost single coil-like. Now this is comparing to my JB in an Ash strat type guitar with trad. trem. I am hoping the JB will be a bit warmer and fuller than the stocks.
The set up was pretty good. I do have some fine tuning to do but that is expected. There are a few problems though. The tone pots has something wrong with it, it is scratchy and does not work the best. But the volume pot is great, and the switch is smooth. I wish the nut locks were not so tight. Other than that I am happy.

Re: Got my Jay Turser!

It does sound a bit fuller with the JB but I did not get to crank my amp yet. I will in a few hours. I have no complaints about this guitar yet.
