    Jackson Sunglasses Strat 7411

    Here's my latest acquisition, which arrived yesterday. This baby was up on another music forum where I don't have an account for a while, then was up on the bay for a day, and then I tracked down the seller on the JCF (member ParaP14) and made a side deal for it. I snapped some pics of it as-is but it could use a bit of cleaning (it's not too bad though). This guitar popped up on the JCF a while back and I sort of forgot about it. This is an Ontario plated full-size Strat with what I am calling the "Sunglasses" graphic. If anybody knows the right name (if it even has one) I'd appreciate it. I haven't weighed it, but it is very light. It has the 80% logo, a painted pickup (not sure what it is yet), a JT590 with the pull-up route, and an amazing birdseye maple fingerboard on a regular maple neck. I'm not sure if it was darkened or tinted or...? The condition is excellent as you can see. The setup is quite rough, but I'm working on it. Jackson tends to get in deep trouble when they airbrush faces on guitar, but this one is pretty neat. It's cheesy but in a good way.

    Looks like she may be just about to take a money shot. LOL

    Cool guitar, congrats. Love that board with the sharkies.

      Love the fingerboard. Not huge on the graphic but is isn't my least favorite Jackson graphic. That would be the guitar I would want to grab for Duran Duran or Billy Idol covers.

        Very nice - I almost grabbed that one myself, but it was too 80's even for me LOL
        Popular is not the same as good
        Rare is not the same as valuable
        Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

            That's funny, I was just playing Rebel Yell on it.

                  That thing is beautiful, love the neck. In the 1th pic, looks strange. Is the trussrod just seriously out of adjustment or is the neck warped ?

                      That is some museum quality birdseye maple!! Nice score HNGD!!!
                      This is what I think of Gibson since 1993. I HATE BEING LEFT HANDED! I rock out to Baby metal because Wilkinsi said I can't listen to Rick Astley anymore.

                          Thanks guys! The neck is nice and straight, not sure what that comment's all about. :think: I'm starting to think these Ontario plated strats are the ones to have. They tend to be really badass players with unique and amazing features and graphics.

                            Yeah I have no clue what he means the neck looks fanfuckingtastic on that thing! On the new GJ2's you'd pay a $500.00 dollar upgrade charge for that fret board.

                              Nice grab Axe. I saw that one when it was on the Bay. I don't do maple boards (although that one sure is purty), but I loved the graphic. Glad someone here got it.

                              Gotta agree with you on the Ontario stuff. I know everyone talks about the Dimas guitars, but I love all my early 90s Ontarios.
