Re: Kevin Easton
Ya know, I just read this entire thread and am quite disturbed to say the least. Glad to see that everything is "eventually" working out for everyone. I always had good dealings with Kevin when he was with Jackson and he was more than helpful with advice and such if I had any questions. I believe on a personal level he is a nice guy. I did have one strange dealing with him. I called and orderred a NOS J90C pickup and what he said was a "brand new" Sustainiac system to be installed in my Warrior. When the package came, I got a J90 without the cover and a sustainiac system that looked to be removed from another guitar. (no sustainiac packaging, all the parts were wrapped in that foam paper and had clipped wires and came with wiring instructions for a "Jackson DK2S" no other paperwork, warranty, or anything else) I called him and asked about both and he apologized about the J90 not being coverred and that whoever packed it just put the wrong one in the box, as for the sustainiac, he said they removed it from the packaging to fit it all into a smaller box for easier shipping. Since the unit worked fine once I figured out how to wire it with only the Sustainiac and 1 Hum (dimebucker, because it was uncoverred I put the J90 in my DK2S) I never worried about the warranty. I think maybe he just swiped it out of a DK2S and sold the rest for parts as well. Who knows.......
Just thought I'd share this.
