I hope someone comes in to help me defend the Seahawks' honor. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Look, I am more of a realist and yes I am a huge Steelers fan, but I think the game will be much closer than you think, Holmgren is a great coach and he will have the Seahawks ready. As for the guitar, I think it is cool, leave it as is!! Jack.

I think you should trade it in for a guitar that already has an H/H configuration. But not before taking a permanent marker and drawing King Kong climbing the Space Needle on it. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Jackson Soloist Blasphemy?

When the Seahawks win, get them to autograph it, then sell it on ebay for a lot of money! [img]/images/graemlins/idea2.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Now there's an idea!! Did you guys see the Hot Dog from the NFC championship game that sold for $1800 on ebay? Here's the link to that. http://cgi.ebay.com/Seattle-Seahawks-SUP...1QQcmdZViewItem

Re: Jackson Soloist Blasphemy?

Aside from your poor taste in graphics I would say do what you want to do. Its your guitar, don't listen to these guys. Its not like its gonna make a big Kahler sized hole if your route the two single coils into a Humbucker for the neck. Your not going to lose much of the graphic, what you will lose though is the pickup cover graphic. If that is ok by you then go ahead. My opinion is there is no humbucker that can't be equalled by a single coil pickup. So consider that before you do anything, look and see if you can get what you want from a single coil first.

Poor taste in graphics?!?!?!? [img]/images/graemlins/brow.gif[/img] The graphic on this guitar KILLS!! I guess you have to love the city of Seattle to fully appreciate it.

Re: Jackson Soloist Blasphemy?

Thanks Budman! Oh and I decided you (and nearly everyone else) is right. I'm not gonna mess with this guitar. It's not that I mind the single coils, it's just that the 5-way switch is in such a poor spot. Why couldn't Jackson have put it in the same position that Fender does?

I wouldn't pay the original $5 they wanted for that hotdog... no way in hell I'd pay $1,800 for it now that it's not edible! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I agree with you there 100%. The hot dogs at Qwest field are nothing compared to what you can get across the street at Safeco Field, which is where the Mariners play.

Re: Jackson Soloist Blasphemy?

The great thing about Safeco Field is that there are always good seats available on game day - just like the Seahawks stadium until this year [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img]

That's easy enough to fix. Just remove the 5-way and wire the humbucker straight to the output jack. [img]/images/graemlins/popcorn.gif[/img]

Its probably smart to leave as is unless it was something that really bothered you. Not to mention the whole pickup graphic issue.
