  • Jeff Beck still has them...

    His Jacksons that is. Was watching the bonus footage of what will be on the upcoming Jeff Beck DVD "Rock N Roll Party: Honoring Les Paul". The bonus is called "At Home with Jeff Beck & His Guitars". Sadly, they never talk about the two Jacksons in the final cut. Here's two screen grabs:

    I dunno, if I played a pink Soloist in the 80's I'm not sure I would want to talk about it, either.

        Yeah, I noticed that too! The bonus footage segment on his guitars is pretty cool. And he tells a few stories about each instrument. From his esquire, to the L5, to a few others; but nothing on the Jacksons. If I get the chance to talk to the director and/or editor of this segment, I'll ask if footage about the Jackson exists.

            I remember he called the pink one a "fairy guitar" or something like that.

              Look close, it has a square neck...that's a slide guitar.

              Very cool that he still has (and apparently uses) those Jacksons...two of the coolest Soloists ever IMO.

                Interesting that they never talk about them on the video yet they are in different positions in the two shots.

                  You would think they would talk about them because of the way they set up for the interview. The rack of guitars between JB and the camera. Which leads me to believe (and I hope) footage of JB talking about the Jacksons exists.
