Re: is this a jackson?

J.B. player for sure. Tone knob is in the wrong spot and the body itself doesn't even look right! [img]graemlins/brow.gif[/img]

Also check the triangular truss rod cover.
It's a JB.

Can you give us a link to the auction?

Curious,

Also look closely at the bottom of the fretboard. I've never seen a bound neck Jackson with rounded corners like that.

Re: is this a jackson?

That trem isn't even a Kahler. It's a Korean knock off, which was on quite a few of these Jackson clones from the 80's. And the pickups are EMG Select, a passive version of the USA active models. I would guess that it's a good player. Big difference between a good player and a Jackson though.

Re: is this a jackson?

Funny now that I look at the auction it actually says JB player..you smart ****as..

Hahaha - duh.

Well, shee-it, $55 is pretty good for that IMO. [img]graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

Re: is this a jackson?

Although those pickups were designed and manufactured by EMG, they are miles away from the real thing and should NOT be considered "a passive version of" the active EMG's. They're not bad pickups really, but they need an output booster IMO.
