SL2Q Rootbeer quilt finish

[wilkinsi]

Found one in my local music store. Beautiful looks, plays nice. Neck feels thin compared to those on the Warriors I play (though they cost a lot more!), but still good. Since I didn't see Rootbeer as one of the available finishes on the Jackson website for that model, is that a limited edition finish, or is it just missing from the list? This guitar will cost me just over £900 (too bad you don't get a hardshell case with it). I'd like others' opinions of this guitar please.

Sorry, can't help you on any review of the guitar but I have seen them listed for sale on Sweetwater and Guitar Center websites. Also, here's a used one on Guitar Center's site.

Sorry, forgot to mention I'm in the UK. I'm putting this on hold until I have paid off my Helix and DBR10.

Are you sure it isn't an import SLX? That sounds like a good price for you if it is a real USA.

They are Mahogany and listed.

That is a Pro-Series SL2Q MAH import from Indo. I have one (traded my RB for a Trans Blue though) great guitar for the money.........

The picture on Jackson's site doesn't do the root beer finish any justice. Makes it look trans black. In reality, it looks really good. What I couldn't find was a real life photo of the trans magenta burst. Anyone here got one?
