Adrian Smith has new toys.......& I want them too

[Force]

Now that 2 artists have Destroyer copies, maybe we will see a production model?




Got these pics from the Maiden Fanclub forum. Hoping he'll be slinging these in 3 weeks when I go to see them in Sydney.

The guy managed a close up of the strat.........lovely isn't it.........

Sweet!

So it's a Jackson version of his old Ibby Destroyer? Like Phil's?
I'd love an X-series version of Phil's black Destroyer, not so bothered about the red one Adrian used. His black/white strat with the midi-pickup is the guitar I associate with H.

Screw the Extroyer, I'll take the green strat!

Nice

That one is on the bucket list for a guitar build for me too.

Wonky as shit but I love it

sweet. I'm sitting with the family this time so won't be close enough to really check out his gear. Have always loved anything Adrian plays. He even made me think that mini-buckers in a goldtop were cool

I'd heard there were a couple of new things coming out for Adrian, but wasn't expecting those. Bit of a let-down to be honest..

Jackson has been a disappointment for a while now. Charvel is much more exciting as a brand. lol



Kiesel is still knocking them out the ballpark

Not so sure about the black burst edge, but the rest of that strat looks pretty sweet.

Love the Xstoyer, too, but not worth bothering with, since Jackson won't make any for actual customers.

Only has a mini-bucker in the neck. Routed the bridge for a full-sized hum. https://www.google.ca/search?q=adria...3uswyKDkRkM%3A

interesting, for the LA Forum show on 4/15 he only played the two white Jackson strats and I think one red LP? Didn't see any of these new ones.

H's solos that night were KILLER and just soared above Davey and Janice - but then that has always been that way. so nice to hear his tone and feeling again.

I thought it was just me, I feel the same way about Jackson VS Charvel. Especially this years offerings in the Pro Mod series, best damn guitars under a $1000.00 IMO for metal on the planet.
