Hell, while I'm here.... here's what's happening at Jackson HQ:
The 2003 (or, 2003.5) Catalog is just about done - I proofed it this afternoon, and it looked unbelievable. There's some really cool things happening in the catalog. The guitars look great, it's big, cool pics from the custom shop...
Two versions of one of the new US model was in the Scottsdale today. Sorry - no pics/details YET! I can say that this guitar is going to KILL!
Remember when I asked you guys "what do you want to see Jackson do?" Well, I took a look at my list of what I thought we should do, took a look at your list and designed a Custom for the Nashville NAMM show...
I'm trying to come up with something for the website - something for news, etc. You know, Fender has 60 Cycle Hum... what should we have for Jackson? If you have a good name/idea - let me know! If I use it, I'll send you something from out online store (shirt, pint glass, zippo, etc...)
I hand delivered Kevin Bond of Superjoint Ritual his Custom SJRKB1 (Superjoint Ritual Kevin Bond 1) and it was HARD to let that f**ker go! Check them out on tour and be prepared for PAIN! There was a near riot at the Mesa show.
Here's the best pic I could find:

Phil Collen dropped by the office to discuss the PC1's. He's a really cool guy, and he's excited about continuing to work with Jackson. We've got some cool finishes we're going to try and introduce in the near future ... got ideas?
We also recently built two 7 string SLAT's for Christian Olde Wolbers of Fear Factory - I only got to see the pictures, but I know he was floored when he picked 'em up!
We're also building Custom guitars for Eric Hoffman from Deicide, Ben Moody from Evanescence, Derrick Green from Sepultura, Chad Ginsburg from CKY, Chris Elsten from Autumn's End, Mike Halland from Crushed ... there's more, but I'm at home, it's Friday, and my mind is shot!
Anyway, best wishes to all of you guys!
