  • I've been reading this thread quickly... It's all very sad and annoying. Jackson always claim to be a killer custom shop (see Chris Cannella in his videos where he always says the same text holding different guitars ^^) and once they get a simple order (KV2 with string-through and an additional knob, ffs) they can't get it fucking right.

    They ask for 5000 bucks, let professionals handle everything and this is what comes out ? I've seen many people happy with their CS guitars, but come on, this is total shit. Not being able to read a custom order is definitely nothing professional. And failing several times in a row starts being ridiculous, even.

    Anyway, I'm not a hater or anything, I just hope you'll get the guitar you ACTUALLY ordered in the end. AND I'd love some pics too ^^.

      Not quite, Rich: it's Pablo & Mike Shannon doing the Jacksons, and Eldred & Red doing the Charvels. I think.

      • Eldred? I thought he was long gone from JC?...
        Popular is not the same as good
        Rare is not the same as valuable
        Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

          Don't put too much thought into this, guys. It could turn out to be like the restaraunt business, where you don't want to know the chef after all.
          I like EL34s.

          • The Masterbuilders are Mike, Pablo, Red Dave & Pat - Charvel and Jackson.

              OK, but it's Pablo & Mike doing Jacksons, and Red Dave & Pat doing the Charvels. I talked to Pablo & Mike about this during the tour last summer.

              • To my knowledge, there are no hard and fast definitive rules on this. They'll do both Jackson and Charvel.

                Mike has certainly done some of my Charvels. And I recently saw pics of him finishing someone else's Charvie. Also, I recently got pictures of Red Dave doing a Jackson order of mine.

                  Things must have changed in the past year then, probably the economy and or vacation schedules...

                      Gee whiz, could it be possible that the Charvie he was finishing was mine? I did just place an order in late May-LOL!!!

                            I just started playing in a band again so take your time but hurry up.

                            and I am glad you read the thread.

                            • This thread is starting to get a little too touchy-feely.

                              Seriously though it is good to see that Jackson responded to the issue(s) Jason has/had. Now hopefully all will be resolved soon so we can see a Kick Ass NGD thread.

                              • I had something like this thread a few weeks ago when someone here in Perth was chasing a guitar tech on our local Bands forum. Our old friend Perry's name came up with a negitave comment. Have a read and see how Perry handled it. Perhaps the Jackson CS should take notes.
