Nice collection! On the top of the couch, is that an LTD EX body with a Jackson neck?

[walshula]

Thanks bro... No it isn't. It is an 1 off of a 86/87 Gibson called an XPL Explorer that a fella traced at a Guitar Center in Mesa Arizona and sent the drawing w/ an OFR to Jackson in 1986. Is called an XPL Kelly on the hang tag and is of neck-through design. It has a few finish issues so i am about to ship it to Mike Learn to have her freshened up in the same platinum white. Hence the group shot, wanna to get one before I ship her out to him this week I should take a moment and name each of them too. All are USA made except the black one on the floor, it is a Japan body with an USA fusion neck. http://i1326.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0cf1cadf.jpg

Awesome group of guitars! So which one is your favorite?

[walshula]

Thanks man.... The XPL Kelly by far is my favorite, it has a balance and feel that is unmatched. Second favorite is the half white/black mutt.

Yeah, you have some very cool stuff there!

Love the diagonal b/w 1 hum!

Great collection! Rock on!

[Frfurter]

Cool group for sure!

Any chance of getting a couple more pics and info of the diagonal b/w, the checkerboard and the more colorful soloist at the right end of the couch on the floor?

[walshula]

Thanks to all, the diagonal strat and checkered one are both mutts I put blank ebony USA JAckson necks on. The colorful one is a Bikini graphic fusion which I plan on selling/trading or possibly refinishing.

Hey bro! How's that Broderick model on the left in the back of the second pic play?

[walshula]

It plays great actually. It doesn't feel like any Jackson I have played but it is well balanced and has a nice feel. Tone is great and neck feels good. There are a few things I dislike but they are only cosmetic only.

Cool, thanks for putting up the extra pics.

They're great!!!! They look so 80's.
