Re: Latest Musician\'s Friend wallpaper - Jackson SL1
Yeah, I saw that. You know that's the guitar they use in the catalog for the DK2 Pile O' Skulls. They just lighten up the Floyd to make it appear chrome. I guess they do it to make the graphic and inlays appear to be better than what they are. That import graphic is hideous on the DK2.
Too bad about the MF logo, but they do have quite a few Jackson wallpapers though.

They use an SL1 as the picture for their DK2? [img]/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] Crap. Stupid deception. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Haha, I remember when this one was posted, we made a big fuss about how the headstock doesn't belong to that particular guitar... it'd need a locknut to go with the Floyd on the body! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Here:
Re: Latest Musician\'s Friend wallpaper - Jackson SL1
I hope that headstock doesn't go with that body. That would be painful to see it in that position! [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Seriously though I see that headstock doesn't have a locknut for the Floyd on that guitar, so no doubt it's from another guitar.
Here's a pic of MF's "DK2" You can see that it is an SL1. The only changes that were made is the color of the Floyd and the tone knob to look like chrome, the Seymour Duncan Logos have been blacked out as well as the "Made In USA" on the headstock.

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Oh lord! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] The black volume knob is CLASSIC. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I also noticed the black volume knob on the original link I posted. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Also, the Floyd locking screws are supposed to be BLACK, as are the string blocks. On that "DK2", everything on the Floyd is chrome. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] That's hilarious. Idiots. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Plus, it makes it look like the trem recess cavity is still in primer! But hey, let's not laugh at MF too much, they've probably sold a b'gillion guitars with those cheezy kind of ads. Just goes ta show ya! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
