About Jackson:
Jackson began back in the late 1970s, when heavy music experienced a flamboyant and virtuosic resurgence in popularity and a small Southern California guitar repair shop became the epicenter of a new level of shred-approved excellence. Ever since then, Jackson guitars have been universally lauded as the metal guitars; the shred machines-highly original high-performance instruments of distinctive style and formidable substance. From metal’s chart-topping peaks to its darkest recesses, for discerning guitarists all over the globe, Jackson is the only way to go.

So I tested out one of the new SL3 guitars last night. The fret work and setup out of the box was incredible, fast as f@ck neck is an understatement. It felt quality. I dont care for the HSS setup, would prefer HH with pickup rings not exposed cavities, looks very cheap. The reverse inlays are really cool and actual pearl. Wish the headstock logo was also pearl not silk screened. 1500 series trem felt better than expected. Still think Fender/Jackson is shortchanging consumers with a fairly bare bones soloist for a pretty hefty price tag. If they knocked $500+ USD off the msrp it would seem more reasonable.

Jackson and quality don't exactly go hand in hand these days if we are really being honest. Imports have tons of QC problems, and a majority of customers are buying imports because of the prices. I have limited experience with US models but I hope they're great. I'd love to get my hands on this model to try, but it's too pricey for me. I'm in the market for a guitar that's $1000-$1500 and here's what I'm looking for in order of importance: 1. non-glossy neck (classic Jackson headstock*) 2. stainless steel frets 3. locking tuners 4. hipshot or floyd are acceptable 5. HH combo with Fishman or SD pickups 6. a fucking case 7. ebony fretboard 8. clean body paint with no topwoods (could be S, V, or X shaped) With this list, which I'd bet is common, Jackson just fall behind Ibanez, LTD, and Schecter at this point; Charvel and Jackson are sort of twins. I know my price criteria is throwing me right into Indonesian made guitars, and I'm not trying to trash Jackson but many of us who want Jacksons are looking elsewhere. If things don't change, fucking Kramer will be stealing customers in a few years. I'm only saying this because I love Jackson.

@Masterfighterx Жыл бұрын

I agree, Jackson (among others still) should up their game and join in on the current times without coming up with stupid prices. I would loooove it if they took a Vintage White RR (either their current Indonesian model, or a future one looking like the 3rd prototype, but also Indonesian, or maybe, depending on price, Korean) added SS frets to it and MoP inlays, that would be killer.

How is it childish? People who want 24 frets actually use all of them.

Okay, then how is it a “gimmick?” The guitar is mostly marketed towards players who typically use the entire fretboard. Even the guitarists who aren’t known for lead playing in this video (Scott Ian,Misha Mansoor) don’t seem to have a problem with the number of frets.
