Beat to shit RR arrives

[Anders]

So, it's here, and it just oozes metal...
The only real problem is that it needs a fret level and recrown pretty badly, I don't want to refret it until it is absolutely needed.

Otherwise, it's great, I don't have a problem with its looks... I actually prefer when guitars look a bit worn! This way, I won't have to worry about dinging it up! [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Nice couple huh? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]



Linked these pics, they're really big:

Thanks! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Rune - on the "Beat to shit RR", the bridge was apparently an EMG81, that was a nice surprise! The neck is a Duncan with a cover. Also, it was made 1989. The lightning sky is a 1994, and it has an EMG 81 in the bridge, and an 85 in the neck.

Re: Beat to shit RR arrives

that's cool, may I ask how many SEK you paid for the beat one? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] I've never even seen a second-hand Jackson for sale here in Norway [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: Beat to shit RR arrives

Yeah, how much did you pay for that? From where did you get it? I love that guitar!

Re: Beat to shit RR arrives

just hop for a refret. its a couple hundred bucks, but it makes the guitar feel like a brand spanking new one. well worth it, especially since you got sucha good deal on that one

Re: Beat to shit RR arrives

What's all that stuff in the back of the cavity? Is that writing normal, and what's it about?

Thanks everyone! [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

Rune and Kristian: For the guitar alone I paid 3800 SEK, which quickly turned to roughly 5500 SEK with shipping and the damn Swedish taxes (1212 SEK in taxes).

Sparky: I wondered that myself at first too...It's a work order number, and some options like "graphic", "neck color", "body color", "logo color", "due date"... but none of those are filled in except for the w.o nr, and the "no" option to "graphic".

Btw does anyone know if it's possible to get some kind of copy of the work order or something like that?
