SL4X, dammit....

Hotrod you could take it off ( its Finished) but then you have all those hole from the screws. You need to remount the neck pickup.

Very nice! What's under the pickguard on these? Could a guy pull it off or is it pretty ugly and unfinished like a strat?

I haven't pulled this one off yet, but it was common practice to take off the pickguard on the originals. The neck pickup would then need to be mounted to the body.

OK before I replace the pickups on this guitar I adjust the neck. What size of Allen wrench do you use on these metric didn't work? I ended up using a 3/16 wrench but that wasn't a perfect fit either?

OK tried the guitar last night and the pickups aren't going to cut it I think I'll put EMG's SA on it . BenoA there are pic's allover the internet just Google Jackson SL4X.

Well I went to look at the Jackson SL4X and there were no Orange ones. They had the other 2 in stock the Bubblegum color is pepto PINK so I got the Blue one it's not as washed out light blue as the pics on the internet show it and the pickups are way better than I had thought. I was ready to put some PJ Marx pickups in it but I'm going to live with these for a while.

Can you post some pics?

The Floyd is Nice and the frets are like on Strat thin fairly tall. The profile of the neck is between my 1985 &1986 SD soloists and is straight. A really resonant body nice long sustain when not plugged in. The 2 I played today were really felt close to each other hope the rest of the run is the same. AngelDeville if the pink one was the color as your post in the begining of this thread I would have gone with that but it's Pink Not lavender.

I figured the Orange would be the most popular, but I had to have the pink. It's not a sickly pepto pink, it's actually a nice shade...

I'm super happy with everything about it.

I like the the Lavender and the Orange one but will have to check out the necks 1st. Always wanted a 3 single soloist but the price ( Custom Shop) and the fact that mid 80's ones came with a Kahler.

Is the binding stark white or ivoroid?

The binding is white.
