Ok got one of the cheaper Jacksons made of Basswood. Certainly not bottom of the barrel though, especially considering it cost me over $1000 AUD brand new at thew time. I changed the pickups to a JB Jazz combo. Now it sounds a tiny bit better than it did with the stock pickups (which were...

Anyone know where i can get the oversized Jackson strap buttons that they use on some of the current model import Jacksons? It's hard enough finding Jackson buttons, let alone specifically black ones. They don't appear on eBay much. At the moment there's some 80s ones going & some PS-4...

Hi All, some of you may have already read my thread in the Pickup Lounge... i'm after a standard flat plastic black matte finnish Seymour Duncan pickup ring for the neck position to match the one that came with my trembucker. Unfortunately Seymour Duncan don't provide pickup rings with their...

I recently bought a Seymour Duncan JB, which the eBay seller had listed as new & which came with the pickup ring. I was pretty happy with that purchase. Around the same time thoough, bought a Jazz from another seller. Three weeks went by & no item, so i contacted the seller who only then decided...

Ok i'm aware of the whole environmental issues with black finnishes on hardware & the change to cosmo black. Now i was just about to buy a Gotoh bridge online, but thought i won't dive in with too much haste because the one pictured in the photo on the site looks pretty black to me & i've heard...

I know i post one of these threads once every couple of weeks, but i was just curious if anyone knew what pickups & amps were used for the rhythm tone on the All For One album? I love the tonal characteristics on that album... true metal sound. This is one that never comes up anywhere in any...

The Gotoh GE-1996TCK Floyd comes with a 43mm GLH-2 locking nut, but does anyone know what the stock JT580 Low Pro on the Jackson KVX10 comes with & if the string spacing between the 2 is the same? Also i hear some of the Jacksons with the JT580 Lo Pro bridges have a higher locking nut than the...

Ok i know 2 things in regards to this album. There's a huge amount of delay used & Jeff Young played Kramers. Other than that any information i can find about gear used in this record (which is next to zero) seems pretty elusive & not very concrete. Inside the vinyl sleeve all you get is a list...

Ok got a Jackson KVX10 which i recently had professionally repainted for a very good price. Now on the Jackson site in the specs for my guitar it says it comes with a "low profile" licenced Floyd Rose. The guy who painted my guitar for me said, "nah that's not a low profile Floyd" This added to...

Does anyone know whether all the stock Jacksons with with JB bridge & Jazz neck pickups already in them have 250K pots or 500K pots as standard?

Which pickup did John Sykes use for his rythm tone on the Whitesnake album 1987? That was a mighty sound & a f**kin amazing tone. Can't find any info what so ever about it on the worldwide web.

Hi All, I'm relatively new to the whole guitar tech spec game. I have a George Lynch model LTD GL200MT with a basswood body. I know i could have got a better guitar for the price tag, but admittedly i've always wanted that paint job & bought it because of the affordable price tag. Now my...
