Adrian Smith Signature?

[roodyrocker]

I've never heard of about 98% of that list. I can't believe someone thought "Jack Frost" was a cool name.

I have one of Jack Frost's custom shop Kellys, in purple of course It plays and sounds great! I also think his clip on Bogner's website is the best Uberschall clip on there.

Well, hopefully if he does have a signature model coming out the production model will actually be the same as the guitar he's playing.

Jim Root still plays his WR1. Adrian Smith never stopped playing Jackson. Dave Murray has a few nice Jackson's too, but he hasn't played them in years.

tasty, tho i never got the wierd angle between the 2 necks on jackson double necks. i much prefer the look of the gibbo 'straight' double neck

I know a few of those guys!

Me too ... and they may be endorsed but they sure aren't playing Jacksons. As a matter of fact we just played with Year of Desolation a little bit a go and John was running around with their other guitar player showing off the new guitars Peavey sent them.

Out of curiosity, what is the standard artist endorsement for Jackson? Anyone know?

The siamese headstocks like that are usually not that stable and can have tuning problems. I liked when they did the headstocks going in either the same direction as each other or facing away from each other.

Lets wait for Maidens tour to start to see if he plays a new/custom/sig Jackson.

It looks like he is. Scroll down to the middle of the page. The pic is a bit fuzzy, but that's a Jackson for sure. There's also a cool shot of his copy of the setlist!

Yeah, you're right. And damnit it's got a non-maple board and a single coil in the neck.... crap.

there's 2 by the looks of it. one without a scratch plate, and one with. difficult to see, but it looks like a non fender control knob layout on the scratchplate. and pure white with a black scratchplate is very J/C. also the neck shape and width, along wth the fact the fretboard looks as tho it doesn't have the trademark fender rounded corners by the last fret indicate J/C





both stratheads too by the looks of it

which means if 1 or both become an artist model, the'll come w/ a standard Jackson pointy headstock, & someone on the board will bitch it nots the exact same & pitch a fit.
