In fact, photos of the Budman68's SLATQM would also be appreciated!

That's a really beautiful figured quilt top on your guitar Budman68. I like the dark blue back too, it gives a great contrast. Especially with the oiled neck.
Is that Abalone you used on the tipped knobs, truss rod cover and new logo? Did you only cover "Jacks" in the logo or is it an artifact of the light in the photo?
No matter what sort of music you like, it's hard to resist the pull of arched quilted maple. Fabulous.

Incidentally, Mr Burns, the SLATQH plays beautifully. The maple top / mahogany body gives it a great tone, even unplugged. It really is a great guitar. Although, at least for me, it doesn't demand you shred.
I have to admit that for no real tangible reason I prefer how my other Jackson, a KV2, plays. Maybe it's the alder, the different neck profile, or perhaps the thinner fret wire? If only you could sit down comfortably and
play the blasted thing. How things could have been different if Mustaine played the Kelly and Friedman played the King V!
Now, I must go drool on the pictures of Chlorine RR. Wow.

Welcome Ken, great looking SLATQH! I like the model so much that I have a couple of pictures of former (?) JCF member fzrod's axe saved on my hard drive. I'll risk it and post them for your viewing pleasure (without asking for permission):

slat's are awesome guitars. no doubt about it.
I still couldn't believe they didn't sell well so j/c had to discontinue it. for their average price, they should kick the crap out of PRS CU22.
I was looking slat and sls for a long while until I bought an sls.
if there's a JB at bridge you might want to try something else. like a custom5 or a pearly gate like my sls. you should get a lot more versatiity than with a JB. imho

The green one appears to be a 24 fret. Wonder why/when they decided to move to 22?
Also, I don't know what the etiquette is for this: there are great pictures of a Natural one on ebay.co.uk. It ships from Ireland, but is nothing to do with me. Mad price too... but it sure is pretty.
Thanks for all the photos. Just when I thought I could move on to lusting after something else, now I want a tabacoo one, a green one, a blue one.
This forum should have a warning: may be bad for your (financial) health!
