  • Jackson "Concept" Series

    Hey,
    I am new to this forum, but I have owned my Jackson for about four years now. I bought it used, and did not get much information on it at the time of purchase. The only things I knew were that it was a "Concept" series guitar from 1994.
    More recently I have done some research on it, but there is not much to be found on the internet. I was hoping that there would be someone reading this that is probably much more informed than I.
    Basically, what I think I know is that the "Concept" guitars were manufactured from 1993 to 1994, and there were only six-hundred made. This may not be correct. Any other facts about it would be welcome.
    Also, if I were to switch out the hardware, what pickups and bridge would be good replacements?
    Thanks, in advance, for any answers.

    welcome first off!
    Do you by chance have a picture of the guitar? As for p/u's, my two cents - go Seymours!
    And as for the bridge, not sure - need a pic.
    Good luck though.

            Here's the scan for the Concepts. They were all 1994 models. Precurser to the Performer series. I have a JDR-94 and it's the thinnest neck I've ever played. A Schaller floyd or a jackson branded schaller (both badged with "made in germany") are a direct swap.

                I have three of them, and had two others that I sold/traded over the years. All of mine were the JDX-94 (fixed bridge, S/S/H pickups) model. All of mine currently have Duncan humbuckers - two with JBs, one with an Invader - but I liked the tone with a DiMarzio Steve's Special also.

                  I've been thinking about selling/trading my JDR-94 for a while now but can't bring myself to do it because of the neck. It is so thin and comfortable. I'm not really fond of the body though. Basswood always seems too light for me (personal preference). I may need a mutt project in the works..
