              Yeah, the Dave Murray Strat with V-trem is USA. The one with the Floyd is only for the Japanese market, I believe.

                    A regular SKB hardshell case. Nothing new or exciting there...

                      If I remember correctly , H had an endorsement with Jackson during the Accident of Birth/Chemical Wedding days (I think all videos but Accident of Birth were shot with H using a Jackson) and he's had that double neck since the mid-80's. I guess he felt more drawn to them lately.

                      Dave's always been a Strat-man in my eyes, though he's had ESP strats aswell as some other brands most likely, apart from Gibsons, Destroyers and all that. Janick has always had that Fender he apparently got from Gillan and a few more, he sticks to the same guitars (just wish he could get something good out of them!).

                      Or I could be talking out of my arse due to being tired.

                        Very cool Neilli! Is it a good player and sound good? Are there any fit/finish issues with it at all?
                        I'm envious of you bro!
                        Can you take a close up shot of the headstock so I can see Adrian's signature?
                        Thanks

                              I think the GMW is poplar, the Jackson is alder and no idea on the ESP. It's heavier though... They all sound good, but notably different. No doubt in part because of the different pickups (EMG, DiMarzio/Fender and Duncan respectively). So sorry, not really much help there!

                              I played a SoCal in a store and they're just not in the same league. The Jackson really is awesome - the neck carve is just perfect for me, and it feels totally 'pro' throughout. The SoCals are cool, but they're obviously 'budget' guitars...
