It sound really good with the cleans too, sad part is customshop jackson's are stupid expensive. I think even the used ones are near a new ibanez J.custom if condition is good.

I can't recall a crackle model being expensive in the past but I'm not that old probably someone will buy that in nostalgia. And speaking of nostalgia, now that the baby boomers market is narrowing we'll see very high-end shredder guitars pop-up from various brands in the next few years.

A bit on the pricey side yeah. It's very much a nostalgia build to be sure. I think they are aiming for dentists who couldn't afford one in the 80s but who have money now

I haven't seen a finish like that since the 80's. A friend of mine who was fresh out of GIT had a guitar with a red crackle finish that he picked up while he was in Cali. I think it was an ESP though but maybe not. I took a couple lessons from him and that was my first introduction to the modes.

I know right? I was telling Mertay it was for rich Dentists who didn't get one in the 80s They look just like the original 80s crackle guitars. They were crazy pricey back in the day as well. I'm glad they are doing them as high quality instrumnets, not as pain job only nostalgia kit.
