I'd like to see a USA SLS again, a new 7 string of some kind, or a COW with a neck pickup.
But I'm only expecting to see a bunch of airbrushed customs and other shit that nobody cares about that'll sit around at Fuller's and the Music Zoo for years to come.

The Death Angel was a Custom-Shop-Only model since about 1990 IIRC. Designed by the guitarist of the band Death Angel (hence the name) Rob Cavestany (sp?)
A USA SLS would be nice, but quite frankly I'd rather see it look more like the JacksonStars NASL (arched mahognay body, maple top, mahogany neck, model-specific inlays, Floyd, etc), since the traditional SLS has never had the staying power of other SL models.
The previous incarnations of the USA SLS looked nice but always had something about them to drive people away, whether it was the lack of a trem or the funky hardtail and baseball bat neck profile.
The NASL neck has almost a KV profile.Last edited by Newc; 12-09-2008, 07:13 PM.I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood

1) Bring back some of the discontinued finishes on USA Selects. I want a Tobbacco Sunburst WR1, damnit.
2) Bring back the Warrior Pro.Fuck ebay, fuck paypal

A neckthrough Pro Series for under a grand would be nice."Dear Dr. Bill,

I am unlucky and have a knack for getting ahold of duds and got 2 RR5's with (very) minor issues that I didn't feel like pursuing through the warranty channel to have resolved. So I bit the bullet and went USA select and have been very happy that I did. But that RR5 at almost half the price of a RR1 is certainly not half the guitar.
My wishlist for a new model would be to get something at an SL3/RR5 level of guitar with a sustainer at around that same price point. It's a big valley between a DK2S and a PC1. A neckthrough with a sustainer at an affordable price would be filling a small void in the bloodline (tm). I pretty much have everything I need for my capabilites at 2 electrics and an acoustic. I am a neckthrough guy. I dig playing music with legato vibes alot. A sustainer is something I could see myself really loving enough to jump up to being a 3 electric and one acoustic guy.GTWGITS! - RacerX

I would really, really like to see just a regular KV2 but string-through. Kinda bummed they just had to mess up the KV2T. I have been wanting a string-through KV for ages now. I'm still hoping they will release one some day.
Like this, I'm really sad there isn't one available cause its really obvious:

Yeah man, that's the one!
The Jackson to end all my Jackson GAS... or to fuel it because I'd need one in every finish known to mankind!
