    Has Jackson ever made entirely flaw-free guitars? I've seen plenty of them from the "glory days" with all sorts of ad hoc manufacturing decisions, like Kahler string locks halfway screwed in and sitting on top of the trussrod cover, messy looking Floyd nut shims, "orange peel" finish imperfections, etc. etc.

    I just don't recall people being as picky about this stuff in the pre-Internet days. Hell, I wouldn't have even known what to look for. A guitar either worked right or it didn't. Not to excuse expensive guitars that are poorly built, but I would take a guitar with slight flaws that plays and sounds great every time over some flawless dud.

        So, once this thread kinda became a frenzy of hater responses and legitimate responses I wanted to see what kinda monster it would turn into without pics. Meh, but I think I've seen enough now...so I did take pics, I'll have them up in a day or so. Also, the guitar went back on Saturday. I think I'm gonna go custom shop charvel instead.

          Silly question. No one has ever made anything entirely flaw-free, ever.

              Nope, not even them, as evidenced by her singing career.

                    I'd give her some of my baby fat. Right on her jugs.

                    But we digress...

                      Haven't seen/heard that word for them in years. Takes me back to 8th grade... Which isn't a bad thing when you're an old fart. :ROTF:

                              All right man, now if you know how to work Urban Dictionary or Google...

                              Hooters, headlights. Equally vulgar, but far more colorful. Often seen with the adjective BIG (capitalized)


                              You should know that it's both.

                                Its amazing how easily guitar talk can turn into tits talk. Amazing and completely understandable.
