Seriously, there is certainly enough demand for reverse headstock soloists as standard production USA models. they have been missing that mark for years now. not everyone can afford or is willing to pay custom shop prices for one.
I'd love to see a run of a new version of the JJ. Call it the JJ2011 or something like that, Mahogany Body/Neck. Neck thru body. Neck dimensions the same as the SLSMG. Tune-o-matic bridge w/ string thru body. Duncan pups like the USA models. Ebony board w/ shark fin inlays. Bone or graphite nut. Not sure which hardware color would be best. Volume/tone control with push/pull coil tapping for both the neck and bridge pups. 3 way toggle switch instead of a blade switch. Maybe make the middle selection kill output so the middle becomes a killswitch (mostly preference because I never select both pickups). Or add a separate killswitch so everyone can still select the middle setting and I think you have a pretty versatile instrument that can cover a lot of areas.
How about an MIJ Star, FR and T models.. Bolt on, neck through, whatever, just a more affordable option than ordering through the CS and the apparent nightmares that soon follow... Oh, and put jack the same place it is on the Rhoads, please...
- Bring back the Warrior Pro with a reversed headstock as a production model. (Or at least like others have suggested, WR5FR with Binding)
- A 24 frets/Floyd Rose Les Paul body with a pointy headstock would totally rock.
- Ditch the JS series all together.
