  • About my Jackson

    Hello, [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

    I’m Lim and I’m using an old Jackson guitar.
    This have 2 single Jackson pickups and 1 humbucker Bill lawrence pickup at bridge ,
    1 volume/1 tone control, 3 on/off switches for each pickup and Floyd rose tremolo.
    And its body painted like cracked marble or something.(called "earthquake" finish)
    I have tried to find any information about my guitar on internet and jackson site, but I couldn’t.
    Have any information about this guitar?
    When was this made? Materials of neck, body, fretboard? Construction type?
    Any reply would help me to understand this guitar.

    Thank you.

          Looks to be a 1989 model as the trem appears to be the Schaller JT-590. Large humbucking pickup bezel too. Nice guitar, current market value: $600 - $700.

                You can reach Jackson through Fender, they now own the line. To answer the rest of your questions, the body sides are poplar, the neck is maple, the fingerboard is ebony, the date of production is most likely 1989 (post the serial number and we can verify that), and the construction is neck through the body. Pickups look to be a pair of Jackson J-100 single coils and a Jackson J-90 humbucker, no active electronics. The tremelo is a Schaller/Jackson JT-590 model. The finish is known as "Earthquake" and is represented in our Gallery by at least two other examples. The finish has actual cuts into the body to simulate broken crust and rock. Nice guitar.
