Hey guys. Today I had the joy of playing my friends Gibson Explorer Pro (VERY NICE) and his brothers Jackson V Pro Series. Anyway, I realized that the guitar was amazingly built. Jackson are all made in Japan which to me means a lot. Also they are amazingly low priced. This was a higher end Jackson that was great minus the pickups which he changed for some EMG 81' and 85's. With that small change of about $230 bucks, it was perfect. It rivaled and perhaps beat the $1350 US made Explorer Pro. And as all of us who passed 2nd Grade know, $690 is a lot better that $1350. Plus, the jackson had awesome inlays that were not dots, better pickups (once changed) than the 498 and 500's of the Gibson and a real floyd rose tremelo ohmy.gif Anyway It's cool
