I Love This New Jackson Guitar

I've been playin for 3 years now. i own a Stage Stratocaster, refitted with a Lace Sensor Gold in the bridge position. I play through a Vox V-847 wah-wah pedal, and a DOD Corrosion distortion pedal. then it goes into my Treynor GT30\TR amp, with a new 10" 50W Celestion speaker. The main competition when buying this guitar was the BC Rich NJ-Warlock, and the Ibanez JS100.

Mine is a Korean-made 24-fret sucker, I think made in 1998. It's got the standard 1 volume and 1 tone knobs, 5-way selector, SSH pickup config, all passive. I think they're stock Jackson pickups, but a friend commented that they really sound like Seymore Duncans (albeit with the jackson logo on them; sometimes they do that, or so I'm told). Finished with a goddamn beautiful translucent red. Shaped similar to a strat, but with deeper contours maybe. Has a Floyd Rose, which has worked better than most others I've played, in terms of staying in tune and string breakage and other such matters. This thing has an amazing neck--by far the thinnest and easiest to play I've seen (to my style of playing, anyway). Didn't come with a case or bag, but the store gave me a hardshell case with a *substantial* discount because it was designed for some peavey strat-clone, but fit perfectly.

This thing is loaded. It is a full metal guitar, like randy rhoads-era axe. It comes with 24 jumbo frets (i love big frets) a bridge and neck humbucker, and a single coil in the middle. It has a floyd rose system on it, and has a very comfortable strat style body. I have the standparent red color, which i love becuase it is pretty, but subtle. You can't see the wood really well under there, so it it would be a guitar i would perform at church with (as opposed to a bc-rich he he) It has a heavy les paul feel to it, which is another plus in my book. there is a 5 way selector switch, it has all the combinations except for the two humbuckers at once. I would like it if i could select that setting. there is one tone and one volume pot.
