I just ordered my first brand new Jackson!

[RacerX]

After years of playing used Gibsons, Guilds, Charvels, and Jacksons, I finally ordered my first new Jackson this week. It's a black KVX10 and it won't get here until February. I guess it's not Jackson's most popular model!

It will not stay stock either! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

I think KEvin has some in stock and on clearance right now. But, anyway, congrats on the purchase. I just sold my last Jackson and probably won't even have a single electric guitar until next spring or summer. [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]
Are you going to change the pickups?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes. List of planned mods:

Obtain DXMG neck. Paint back of neck black. Ebonize/Stain fretboard. Possibly reshape heel to all-access (see current thread in Other). Install DXMG neck on King V body. All hardware will be black. Bridge pup will be Duncan Distortion.

I think it will be pretty unique!

Congrats Ron! [img]graemlins/toast.gif[/img] Smart move bro, now you get to find out what it's like to eat all that initial depreciation instead of letting some other dumbass do it for you! [img]graemlins/poke.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: I just ordered my first brand new Jackson!

Haha, thanks Toejam... I wouldn't have known. I haven't checked out the specs on www.JacksonGuitars.com for the KVX10 before. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Ron, who are you selling the DXMG body and KVX10 neck to? If you don't want them, I might consider purchasing them from you.

Congrats Ron! [img]graemlins/toast.gif[/img] I just got my 2nd ... 18 years after the first. I don't think I'll wait as long for the third. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
