Any history with that guitar (that you know of)?
AWESOME acquisition.Originally posted by neilli View PostI think that was the one that was given away by one of the UK guitar magazines back in the day..
Thanks for all the positive attention!!!
I guess Neilli is right! This is what could be found in the eBay listing;
Built in USA in 1989, a Guitarist magazine competition prize in 1992, Poplar/Alder Body, 2 x Maple Thru Necks meeting at tips, Bound Rosewood boards with Pearl Sharkfin inlays, Jackson Floyd Rose, Pearl/metallic blue.
6 string has 2 J-50 humbuckers with 3 way mini toggle
12 has has 1 J-50 plus 2 J-200 stacked singles, 5 way
J-1200 active mid boost circuit
2 way mini toggle to switch between necks.
The serial is J 5010
Well - it was quite expensive(?), and I probably won't make any profit the day I decide to sell it. But it will be a keeper (like my other Jacksons) and I will keep it as long as I still have the interest.
It's in real good shape besides a few small nicks and some wear at the bridge etc. And it plays beautiful - really smooth setup.
Here are the pics that were at eBay

Love that color! Congrats. Any tuning problems since it's got siamese headstocks?
Regarding tuning - I was afraid it would be "impossible" to get it right, but from what I can see (hear) the necks doesn't seem to affect eachother at all!S.W.E.D.E.
