How Many Jacksons are too many? old question

since I met Jackson guitars in 2004 I have been buying and selling many guitars, I've had almost all models and all series and as if that were not enough I modify every guitar I buy

I say until you can't store them safely anymore. As long as you can give them a good home, own as many as you will.

There's always room for one more.

There's no such thing as too many Jacksons, there's only "not enough"

I went through a "phase" some years ago where I had at least one version of every model at the same time:
-King V
-Rhoads
-Kelly
-Warrior
-Soloist
-SLS
-Dinky
-Fusion

I have to say it was fun having similar models side-by-side (i.e. Dinky, Soloist, and Fusion) for direct comparison.

But I had to break up the set;
Didn't get along with the Kelly shape, or the Rhoads' long wing, or the King V neck profile.
The '97 USA SLS coulda been waaay better IMO.
Strat shapes never did agree with me, and I can't get along with the Dinky/Fusion/SL for too long, either.

I gotta say the Warrior body shape is perfect for me.
And the JacksonStars NASL ("New" Archtop Soloist, as it was known at the time). I could play those for hours easily.

Loved the 22 fret Kelly still love the old Soloists.Newer SL 2H meh don't care for the recessed trems.
Had a few 80's USA RR's but the body shape makes it un playable for me.
One USA KV and hated everything about it.
Love all the USA SD plated super strats I have had and still have.
Love the MIJ fusion H-H I still have.
Love the USA JJ's double and single cuts.
Yep I say you can never have too many.

Love the DK's! Someone's signature says "One away from too many".

[tomanyjacksons]

Well, it's something I should really think about.

[Newc]

The only KVs I ever got along with were an older KV3 (bolt-on) and the short-scale KV2T.

Like others have said, no such thing as too many and there is always room for one more. That's why Jackson keeps cranking them out, we can't get enough of them

2 more than you have now. Thats what i tell the woman when she asks,"how many more guitars do you need?" "just a couple more hun...just a couple", & its worked so far.
