  • plat white soloist PICS

    hi all
    just reaceived a platinum white 1hum soloist
    the strange thing is it has no serial
    anyone familiar with this axe?
    seller states its made from 1 piece?
    indeed i cant find any lines besides the throughgoing neck, its heavy as hell and all the screws feel like screwed into maple, so who knows?
    it has 1 hum (dimarzio)
    a chrome OFR
    stamped black grover tuners
    a chrome vol pot(shaped like nothing i had seen on a jackson before)
    its ontario routed
    has a very very slim neck
    ebony board with no inlays
    but black bound over the jumbo frets! thats a sick fat binding bout 1,5mm
    white sidemarkers 24 frets
    the last fret doesn`t look like it ever had a serial
    theres nothing to find bout that guitar (under the TRC, trem cav, control cav, under the pup) no WO or anything else
    and the axe has a Gary Hoey signature dedicated to some Justin (not under the clearcoat)
    the Jackson logo is black
    it looks like painted to me (this way: blk painted hs, logo applied, painted white, logo removed, leaves a blk logo) black made in USA screened, dunno for sure
    but judge by the pics:







    cheers andy

    yeah that one was tempting..... but too weird to pull the trigger.

    really sweet looking axe and if it plays half as good as it looks you should be in heaven!

      Gongrats Andy! Great looking guitar!
      It could be an employee project... There are some things
      that look odd to me. Do you have another soloist that you can compare with this one?
      Personally I don't believe the one piece claim though.

          Looks nice. One piece is highly unlikely.

          Looks like a 1hum/1vol SL2, even down to the black binding and no inlays! Might even be some kind of prototype!
          You took too much, man. Too much. Too much.

            Nice looking guitar - stick a black floyd, locking nut and volume knob on that and it'd be perfect!
            Popular is not the same as good
            Rare is not the same as valuable
            Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

              as i also thought it`s not 1 piece
              after hours of inspection i finally found something that could be a seam near the rear strapbutton
              so we cleared that

              what else do you think is odd?

              btw it plays quite cool
              but i have to restring her and clean the board first for full pleasure

                That guitar was at Ebay some time ago (the price was very low => about 500 USD). I almost bought it but there was something what didn´t catch me... The seller claimed to me that this guitar was built by his friend who worked at Jackson. He stated that one piece so strongly that I leave from the deal because I haven´t see or heard that before. If anyone else know better, feel free to correct [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

                BUT I guess that this guitar is ok to play and sound is great? Therefore congrats! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

                        That's great! I really like it...although black OFR, nut and knob would really make it the ultimate. Also wipe that writing off the front [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] and get some custom inlays installed!

                          That's sweeeeeeeeeeet! I love white soloists.
                          Probably an employee project, I say nice score! [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

                            There's nothing as cool as a sleak, clean black fretboard! Don't go destroying this one by putting inlays in it! [img]/images/graemlins/nono.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
