Seriously cool score Brett!
First one I've ever seen with reverse fins.

I've said it before, the original Archtops are the best guitars Jackson ever made.

Sweet. Don't see them like that every day. The only other rev head arch top I recall is that amber quilt top one that fedex destroyed on Newc.

That is real close to the custom shop I am considering ordering. real nice. There is supposedly an archtop that didn't go to a dealer from NAMM. I'd like to know which one.

I don't think so, the grain pattern doesn't seem to be consistent with BR.

Re: Cool Old USA Archtop Soloist

Doesn't matter. It's still an awesome ax. Keep me in mind if you ever want to sell. I've got archtopitis lately!

I always thought it was pao ferro (sp?)

Re: Cool Old USA Archtop Soloist

I think so too.
It doesn't look like just a rosewood fretboard to me.

Re: Cool Old USA Archtop Soloist

Yeah, it wasn't "just" a rosewood board... and sorry... didn't mean to hijack the thread *blush*
