Chris Broderick leaves Ibanez and goes to Jackson

[toejam]

I don't know what's going on as far as electronics. Looks like a pup selector switch up higher like John Petrucci, then volume and tone and some other kind of toggle switch.

If it's a coil tap, it's mine.

Also assuming a Mahogany body as that seems to be Broderick's preference.

who knows, screw dean.


Edit: Who fuckin' cares? Axewielder does. He screws Megadave and loves Dean too

Fucking fixed now

You know what, I imagined it somehow that it's going to look like that after I read the description on Jackson's blog... The guitar looks okay, but it doesn't look much like a Jackson or represents the Jackson brand well enough. To me this guitar is more like a hybrid of other brands out there, and definitely I prefer the seven-string headstock over the six-string version.

Is it me or does the body shape just look like a Schecter from a few years ago? Albeit with a strange control config..

Hey now! Cut me some slack. I only screwed Megadave one time. I was drunk, and thought he was just an angry blonde chick.

[Trem]

yeah body kinda looks like a schecter not really feeling it. i liked his ibanez better but if he likes it good for him. i don't see it becoming an iconic guitar down the road but whateva.

Id call the 7 string in post #54 a Domionolist, I like it

[dante]

still looks like a mayones XD

[salmonella]

hmm, the looks dont appeal to me- looks more function than style. Its a Horizon (ESP), caparison, schecter, sls, morton mutant and looks like i should be used for euro orchestra metal

I like the 7 string headstock. I think Chris is an awesome guitarist and I am glad he is with Jackson.

[markD]

so, now that people have seen the guitar, does that mean that the "broderick comes to jackson" boner-fest is over? all i saw on here was excitement bordering on stupidity (especially for adults), and now that the guitar has been shown, people are bitching? typical. it seems jackson can't win....

anyway, i like the guitar. it is different and gives jackson a MODERN guitar. the broderick sort of reminds me of my brian moore, which is a guitar that was designed for functionality and playing comfort. i like it, and depending on price/color options may pick one up. it would be nice to play a jackson live without some dingle-berry making an "80's comment.

good job jackson!!

I don't mind the body shape at all. The reverse-smurf headstock is the best choice for the 7, but I'd love to see a reverse pointy on the 6-string. I think it would balance really well with the asymmetrical body.

[zuppermuhle]

Yeah. I like the dominionist. It's not your typical Jackson but hey it's custom shop.

And my guess for the mystical extra toggle switch is piezo.

EDIT: The 7-string headstock looks large. It's not like in the SLAT3-7 but still it reminds me of a 12-string headstock.
