Re: Yo Zerb!!!
Dang it! I knew I would mess up on some spec.
But about those prices Zerb, for whatever reason lately I've seen very few cheaper soloists unless they were the professional series or beat to hell. For whatever reason, it seems like the good soloists on ebay are commanding around 1100-1200. Another curious thing, most of these aren't even starting out low. It's not uncommon to see a good used one start at 1100 or more. Maybe it's christmas coming up but it seems like its more a sellers market on the soloists right now. When I bought mine two years ago it was definately a buyers.
*note none of my above comments pertain to plain black soloists :fingersx:
And I don´t know where these people are seeing used jackson soloists in the 1200$ range, because they´re not on eBay... it´s very VERY rare for a standard soloist to go for above 1k used, regardless of color. If of course you´re looking at San Dimas soloists, well these have an extra 20 years of Mojo, that always costs extra
This isn´t entirely correct. THe FR on the New SL-3 is the PING version, which is IIRC MIK (OR MIC, but definitely not by Schaller in Germany). And yes, there is a difference both in tone and in quality. The PING units are good, but will IMO never reach the quality of the Schaller-made units
