  • Roswell in da house

    Luckily none of Bea Arthur's vaginal discharge was on it:





    [img]graemlins/rant.gif[/img] Even though it arrived safely and appeared to be packed well (in a huge Taylor box with tons of packing but no up/fragile markings at all), there was no packing at all inside the case and one good drop would have shattered the neck. From now on I'm going to send a link to Neal Moser's guitar packing thread to everyone I buy from.

    Wow.....Niiiiiice!
    Keep it up, and you're gonna have the nicest collection of rare & 1 of a kind Jacksons on the forum. Hey, I sure would like to see a pic of the back of the neck, headstock, & body (hint hint).

      If you don't mind me asking, what serial number did you score? I also have a Roswell that I bought two years ago, RSW012.

        I saw the old thread where someone was able to give you a bit of history on your guitar, that was *very* cool. Hopefully I'll be as forutnate: mine's RSW 016. The letter that came with it says that it was purchased in late '98 for use in the video for the remix of Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love" (if I had video capture I'd post some pics from the tape that was included) and that prior to 13 Jan 04 it was only used in the shoot.

          Doug - Here's a few shots of the back (with one big scratch caused by a model's metal robot costume). [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]





          But I've got a loooong way to go to catch up to some of even the moderate collectors here, much less the avid ones.

              Thanks Don! The housecleaning was prompted by the Warthog and the fact that I'd been looking for a new Soloist, JJ & 7-string for a while.

              This one was kind of an accident. I pushed the guy a little and he really backed off on his asking price. Since I'd just missed on a few of these over the last couple of years I thought I'd go ahead and grab this one while it was available.

                    certainly a nice collectors piece. Id make a nice lil glass booth for it with some "futuristic" lighting.
