My Arbor fire crackle

[fett]

While I was wading though my guitars , I found this again. I just stung it up. It plays and feels great. Gotoh tuners. The pups are OK. The trem is cool, but it has blades. I have an EMG SA, SA, 85 set that might just work.

wow cool and the necks is crackled too!! i assume this was some knock off / japanese rip of a jackson?

dude. hoover ur floor and tidy up the can hehe

[fett]

Not sure when or where it was made. All I know is it plays real well. And, I forgot what I paid for it.:ROTF: As for the neck, it does feel a little different. You can feel the crackle.:ROTF:

[sonicsamurai]

really? thats pretty cool, i'd qiute like the idea of a crackle which u can feel. when i painted my bloodsplatter i let the paint run thick so u could feel the blood trickles. its cool

[sonicsamurai]

has it got a coil split too by the looks of it?

[fett]

Yeah, it does. But , the bottom line is it is so well balanced. Solid body. And, I think it is a true neck-through.

That's wicked!

I remember when you bought that , how scary is that. I think you paid 150 for it with a BIN.
I keep thinking about getting one of these, a vester or stagemaster neckthru. I think my wife and the $900 I just spent on my charvel SD is stopping me.
Love the crackle on these.

It's like King fett's mine.

Nice one Fett!!!
Great deal as usual

My only Jackson is a crackle SD CS Bolt-On Strat...

[fett]

What a paint job.

Arbor were ripping off Jackson big time back in the 80s (along with everyone else). A friend of mine had a sweet neckthrough Explorer with the Jackson-style head, and I had a Star bass that would resonate for days if left unattended.

Too bad no one could ever figure out how to make them play as good as they looked

[fett]

This one does. I have my share of everything. It's a very nice replica. All I know is how well it plays.

When I had one like that the pickups sucked. I think EMGs would definately make it a much better guitar...........

[fett]

That's what I was thinking. The whole guitar is great but the pups suck. So, I have another project.
