  • Went fishing the other day

    ...on craigslist and this is what I caught.

    1990 Jackson Soloist, Serial J5766. It's a white guitar that has faded into a nice yellow.

    All stock except for the mini toggles which were replaced at one time.

    Overall condition is a 8.5/10.

    I just set it up and it is a nice player. The neck profile is much fatter that the current Select series.

    Nice - can't go wrong with classic black on white!
    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

        I just did a simple:

        "WTB: Vintage lefty Jackson/Charvel guitars"

        and someone responded. We talked, worked out a price and I drove to his place to pick up the guitar. In all, from ad placement to guitar in hands was two days.

          Wow, that is fuxxing awesome man. I'm a lefty myself and that rocks. Very nice guitar! I got my eye on a white Cort Performer series that looks exactly the same as that, even down to the knob/switch layout. The pawnshop is asking $80!!!

              What I did was placed an ad on Craigslist asking if anyone had a guitar that they wanted to sell me and someone said yeah....SCORE! I place my ad about twice a month and I usually get nothing but this time I did.

              Regarding the CORT...I think some of those were made of plywood--the early/mid 80's versions. I had a cort explorer (see my website for pic www.godwentpunk.com) for pics of it. It was a nice guitar, I just couldn't get into it. It was made from plywood.

                  As far as I'm concerned he can stay with Dean and play his dots+fins KV copies, and whatever that aborted fetus he "designed". More like "I saw it in my puke". -Newc

                      I know the pictues suck. My dig cam is DOA so I had to use the camera from my phone.
