The amp is a beast! Added an eq on the fx loop and its sounds more alive. I find the clean channel better than my Blues deluxe. You can have lots of gain without losing clarity
 
I also run a 10 band mxr EQ in the loop.
Amp sounds amazing. Real close to my Diezel VH4 Channel 3. But with enough difference I got them both. Haha :lol: :LOL:
Jammed it hard and heavy for 4 hours last night with my drummer. Pushed two 4x12s with ease.
 
What kind of Dominion? New pro model or DX2?

I have 3 of them. Love the guitars. Have a pro on order too.

Like the sound of the amp too.

The Pro in black, waited for almost a year for it. Its a great guitar, so easy to play.

GODDAMN you're killing me man. I have been waiting as well. I have mine on order through Sweetwater. Saw a few pop up on ebay last week, all gone.

How is the fit and finish? These were supposed to be made in Mexico, until Fender realized that their facility / workers do not have the capability for neck throughs. So they moved production to Indonesia, where they already make other Jackson Neck Thrus (DUH)
 
Here's mine. I must say, even for a nitpicker like me the fit and finish on the Indonesian Jacksons is pretty damn good

Damn, where did you get the satin finish? Thats so badass!

I was surprised with the quality even if its made in indonesia but with the price should be cheaper.

Agreed. This is a DX2. It's the cheaper model. It came predented from Samash, I fixed it all up and repainted the body with better satin paint that doesn't shine up as easy as some of the other matt finishes. Put all black hardware on it, locking tuners. I like it better than my MIJ pro model.

There's a Ivory one on Ebay, which I've been drooling over. I like it, but I think I like the black ones better.

I just love the feel of these guitars. To me, they feel and play similar to a LP, but have a cool look about them.

This one has SD Black winters in it. Locking tuners, metal pickup rings.

The older archons had noise issues. PRS offered a free fix for the older models and it comes already installed on the new ones.
 
Thats good to know. By the way how do we distinguish the older models, is it by serial #?
