  • Ebony Fretboards

    Did jackson ever make any bolt-on guitars with ebony fretboards? or does ebony only come on neck-thru?

    Re: Ebony Fretboards

    off the top of my head:

    the DK1, the US Fusion. Japanese Fusion Pro.

    DR2, SL2, RR2 (all with no inlays)

    I'm sure there are more....

        I think the only bolt-on model currently in production with ebony fretboard is the DK1.

            The AT-1/T has a bolt on ebony neck, no binding.

              No, the SL2H is neck-thru. The regular USA SL2 that was made in the mid- late '90s (with Armstrong pickups and import JT580LP trem) has no inlays on an ebony board. [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

                There are lots of '80s ones (before they called them DK-1) with ebony (some w/dots, some w/sharks). Here's one on ebay:

                  Toejam, Delt was talking about Cobhc's request for both ebony AND bolt-on, and clearly the SL2 Soloist is a neckthru. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

                    D'OH! Brain fart! My bad. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] For some reason I was thinking it was a bolt-on, but I know it's not. I was guess I was sort of thinking of the DR2. The specs on the DR2, RR2 and SL2 are basically the same, except the SL2 does have neck-thru construction. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

                      yea, brain fart on my part too. Excuse me! Phew, someone light a match. I think I got on a roll with that series, and (stupidly) included the SL2. Doh!

                        I think almost all of the USA bolt ons that came during or after the "Professional Era" have ebony fretboards [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
