Hi,
I am new to the forum, but am yet to formally introduce myself - Apologies.
I am a 33 year old guitar player who has been playing intermittently for the past ten years and out of action for the last few as I have been doing a lot of Electronic stuff with synths and sequencers. I have played since I was 13 years old, various types of music from Anthrax through to Zeppelin through to acoustic Neil Young and am currently in the process of playing Bass for a Jazz fusion band.
I previously owned a Red 1992 'Fusion Pro' from new which I used in various Thrashy type bands back in the 90s, but as the music thing ground to a halt my playing reduced and I reluctantly parted company with it to help fund a deposit on a house.
Since finding a link to the forum my interest has increased in getting back to playing guitar in a band and my love for Jackson guitars.
I have been searching for a while to try and find another Fusion and managed to find what I believe is one on eBay a few weeks ago which is in excellent condition for $500 complete with original Charvel Hardcase. Which with the current £ to $ exchange rate worked out around £320 inclusive of the $150 shipping - I'm happy with the price, what do you guys think?.
I believe it to be a Japanese Early 90's Fusion Professional like me previous (but I am sure you guys will be able to inform me if I am correct?) The serial number is: 901204, please can anybody confirm the year of manufacture?
I purchased it from Guitarville in Seattle (great guys), only downside is the toggle switch is deactivated which looks as tough it was done when some Seymours were installed (not sure what they are, I believe the neck and middle may be 'Pearly gates' but not sure of the Bridge - I suppose I will have to remove them to have a look for some information). The original JE-1500 circuitry has been removed so I am on the look out for a replacement (I presume it will work with the Seymours?).
Hope the pictures work okay (Please excuse the dogdy reflections and shadows)
