Sorry man, been looking for the right guitar for a few months now. Needed something that was the same caliber as my old ESP Custom and this seems to be it. Hope I did not pay too much for it??????

Haha np. Let me know if you need to get rid of it.

Will do! I may find something I like better any day.

Jackson didn't start using the two-letter + number naming scheme until the late 90s IIRC, so a 1990 SL1 never existed.

Fucking nice. Those Pro's own half the USA guitars I've ever played.. Anyone with a Pro knows they're spectacular, and I've never heard a bad thing about them.. Ever.

Fckn A, cannot wait to open the Mesa up with this thing!
Thanks guys!

That's a fair price. A couple of years ago you couldn't get $500 for them. Now people hit the BIN at $800 (shipping).

The neck will be a thinner shedder type than the ESP. At least my 2 ESP Customs (1980s) have a fatter neck than my Jacksons.

As long as it has that feel, like it almost plays itself, I will be stoked!

And I am still not clear what the difference is between a MIJ Soloist Pro and an American made SL1 from 1990. It appears that the country of origin is the only difference??????

Didn't someone say there was no such thing as a SL1 back in the 1990s?

Yep, So was it just a USA Soloist in 90??????

I dunno but be sure to take heaps of pics when you get the Soloist! Can't wait to see some better pics of it.

Will do! The Harmony website has reviews on it and it seems to be the same guitar as the US version.
