Xmas is coming- Old School Jackson Content

So the one on the left is a 1990 Custom shop RR1 that a purchased new and was my #1 for about 20 years. The Kelly was purchased 2nd hand and is a reissue from the Custom shop (1of25) and the Concorde I purchased new in 1992 and is the only one of 200 that they made with Chrome hardware stock (Paperwork verification incl) . That only has about an hr. of playtime in all these years. Had to wait an additional 4 months while they made a Chrome truss rod cover. Still has the hang tag on it.
Love me some old Jacksons! LOL

OK Ok... Re: the Concorde not getting played.... When I got that I was gigging super heavily and did not want to take that on the road as the RR1 sounded and played fantastic. Plus the Concorde has a vintage trem, which I ordered that way cause it was more rare (1 vintage for 5 floyds) I was so psyched when I got it and never planned on NOT playing it though. That to me back then was like a 59 Les Paul. My RR1 was just the workhorse for recording and gigging.
Not long after I got an offer for some stupid money for it. Like what I thought was ridiculous but I worked with the Jackson production manager to get that done.. etc. and since I didnt need the money I wouldnt sell it. Then it kinda became like well, if I ever need to make a mortgage payment... LOL . I actually play the Kelly in rotation today, but yea.. fuck that beauty contest shit.. I do need to play it I guess.
