Just bought the Phil Collen Archtop MIJ Professional, I love the gay-ish Sliver Pearl finish ( the pics show more like Gold color because the sunlight)!!

Very nice!
Not too many out there with reverse head stocks.

Cool! I always liked how they rounded off the headstock tip on those, too.

Thanks everyone.

I'm from Taiwan, but I scored this Jackson PC Archtop from Japan. The list price of this guitar was $230,000 Japanese Yen at 10 years ago, and I heard this model is kinda rare?

I remember at least one of Marty Friedman's guitars had Grover Jackson on the headstock like that. Come to think of it, it might have been a Rhoads or a Firebird.

It's not rare (atleast not in Japan). It's just what Jackson Stars were called before . They had lots of different awesome models...that pic from DanoWang is just one page out of the 1993 catalog...you can see it in full on Henrik's website.

And remember Megadeth's CW-Booklet, you can see Dave playing a Grover Jackson USA KV.

Yes, the Grover Jackson Japan-market only, precursor to the Jackson Stars as mentioned. Note they have the brass trus rod cover with the word Professional embossed in it. Interesting that these PC's have the reverse headstock, while the sold-in-usa Japan made Professional versions have normal headstock.
I have one, shows the real silver color better in my pic (bridge pickup swapped to a Tom Anderson):
