How this work with the existing USA Soloists? Will it co-exist with USA Select (if USA Select isn’t order only from now on, as has been speculated)? I’d love some transparency from Jackson when it comes to their range.
Still, fun to see new models and ranges. Hard to see myself not getting an MJ instead of these ones.

The issue of "Corona, California" being the only indication of place of manufacture is new in the Jackson world, but was first seen in Fender guitars in 2016 when series such as the "American Professional" (which had "Corona, CA" on the headstocks) replaced the Fender "American Standard" Series (which had "Made in U.S.A." on the headstocks). Looks like Fender (the corporation) has finally applied that thinking to the Jackson brand.
I am vague on the details but it has to do with the percentage of the product (the guitar) actually made in the United States. With so many components imported from other countries, even though the guitars are assembled in the United States, Fender could not legally put "Made in U.S.A." on the headstocks, and resorted to putting "Corona, CA" instead. It could very well be the same with Jackson.

These were up in the 2 grand range when they first came out, like 27-8 00Last edited by john.w.lawson; 09-06-2022, 07:54 AM.I know the old saying that the value of an opinion is generally inversely proportional to the strength with which it is held.

Or maybe they are made in wherever and assembled in USA. Who knows
Like the old Kramer American series. I think you're right! Those inlays ugh.I know the old saying that the value of an opinion is generally inversely proportional to the strength with which it is held.
