  • A lot of interesting new stuff was just announced

    There are a handful of new models here that have my interest, especially the reverse headstock natural PC1, and finally a USA-made Dominion

    PC1's description says there is a spoke-wheel trussrod adjustment, but the wheel doesn't appear in the photo of the guitar.

      Typical Jackson. Errors galore on product pages.

        It's a neck through guitar. How does one put a spoke wheel truss rod adjuster on a neck through?
        Let's hope their product QA is better than their product data on the web site.

          Pro series seven string soloist looks interesting. Satin black color is boring though. I hope that gloss finishes are going to be available later on.

            The Scott Ian V got a MSRP of $ 5 517. Don't now what the street price will be, but I know I can't afford it

              Maybe they're found a way!
              I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

                I like the Orange with the Bare Knucker pickups and the Hipsot bridge. Killer guitar there.

                  The Scott Ian King V has a pickguard that's made from his anger and resentment towards anyone that tries to approach him.

                    I didn't originally see the links for the other Series. For completeness' sake and convenience, I've linked ALL of them below.

                      Davidson Warrior 7 looks nice...but they have to stop using those piranha inlays.

                        As the owner of a CS guitar with them, I disagree.
                        Division - American Metal that doesn't suck. Much. Even on Facebook.

                          Fair enough .

                          I'd take mine with rev sharkfins...or plain maple...the great thing is that its all about choice.

                            My thoughts:

                            1. I dig the PC-1 neck through. But man it's way more expensive that a stock PC.

                            2. Satin finishes seem to be a thing now. I wonder if it's demand or cost cutting that really drives that.

                            3. The Scott Ian is nice. Has a vintage appearance. I hope it does well. Although the X version seems more feasible. "pickguard made from anger and resentment"? That's awesome! Maybe that's why the US costs so much.

                            4. 10 years of the Dominion? It doesn't seem like it's been that long.
