Jackson needs more bound bodies

[Rich#6]

flame or quilt tops look awesome with binding. I want one like this with a purple quilted top.

Mr. Napalm, every time you acquire a new guitar, it is exactly my dream guitar! We think alike. The only difference is that you obviously have the money to go Custom Shop.... and I don't

I know the feeling, his guitars definitely rock

My slsmg has a bound body too;

Shreddermon, that's hot! Any reason you didn't go all the way old school and king size it?

I just prefer the current (smaller) size body.

As to binding rubbing against your forearm, I can see how that might bug you if you're new to it. It's not like it's sharp or anything, though. It's just feeling something in a spot where you're not previously used to feeling something. Especially if you typically play strat-style bodies with the forearm contour. But it's something that your mind easily (and quickly) adjusts to, so it eventually isn't even noticed.

Bravo on the DR coated strings too! Im big on these...Blue, gold,
black...and that ruby red is killer on the EVH Striped axes

What they need to do is re-vamp their import series. Theyve had the same old models for god knows how long. They should take advantage of the surge in interest in metal oriented guitars and offer more models, more features, and more artist endorsements. I appreciate that the heart and sould of jackson is the USA custom shop, but lets face it, the kids just dont have that kind of money, and right now ESP is killing EVERYONE in the import market. Jackson is going to have to step it up if they want to compete.

Another +++++++++ for bound bodies! I LOVE them, wish I had one.
