  • GC had the DK2M too cheap, had to grab

    I bought one of these in blue when they first came out, I liked it very much and sold it here on the board when I went back to work and could buy a USA. I was at GC yesterday and they had a red and a black one for 399, the red one played awesome and had some figure to the fretboard so I snagged it. My only gripe is the wrong saddles on the Floyd, the g string had an E saddle on it and it was WAY too low. I called GC and they are ordering the part, I shimmed it for now, works fine. I also added strat knobs for hand room. Pics suck, looks darker in person.

        Yeah, I remember in an old thread when I said my blue one had a beefy neck and it seemed out of the norm, that blue one had a good tone though.

                  I ordered one, hard to pass up for $399. I have been wanting a white one for a while but they usually only put the red and black ones on sale until now.

                    I saw that at GC and on MF as well. I need another guitar like I need a hole in the head but If my local GC still has the red one afetr I get my car fixed (assuming it doesn't cost me a small fortune) I may have to snag it.

                    So um... what's the diff between the 2008 and 2009 m odels anyway?:think:

                        That's what I thought. I can pick up a hardshell case at my local Sam Ash for 100 bucks..

                          So is Music123. http://www.music123.com/Jackson-DK2M...67493.Music123

                          Then again, MF, GC and Music123 are all the same company.
                          I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

                              Didn't the DK2M get upgraded hardware fairly recently? I was under the impression that the Pro series comes with OFRs, but neither MF or Jackson's site make mention of it.

                              Edit: Found the search button and my answer
