NGD - Jackson HT6 - nice maple top!!

[mooncobra]

great guitar. played one and was surprised how well it played and sounded. so, one came up at a great price and I snagged it.

alder body, thick maple top, ebony board, stainless frets, BKP pups, hipshot tuner and bridge, hard rock maple neck, etc.

Dude that's badass. I have a mild case of GAS for these. The specs looks awesome.

Congrats!

How's it compare to your Kiesel, and do you like those pups or no? Seems like they'd be a little djenty for what you like to play.

Its playing and sounding great. I am about to change the strings. It came with huge 11s on it. I have played 11s in the past, actually quite a while ago, but damn, these are enormous. I am throwing some 10s on it and expect to enjoy it even more. I find myself fighting the 11s. But overall, its a great guitar. No flaws I can find. I dig the Juggernauts. Plus, I got a really good deal on it. There was one on the guitar center website with a blue quilt top a little while ago for a couple grand, a 6 string. I got lucky, just came across a great deal. This thing is spotless, basically brand new. I cant even find a pick swirl.

I have one in the same finish - love it other than the pickups which I changed out immediately. I fell in love with the 20" radius.

I like this guitar a lot. The pickups sound pretty good to me, but feel kind of odd. Don't know how to explain it, I guess they don't feel like they sound?? What pickups did you put in??

I think that's a pretty good explanation actually. I just heard this awful honk in the midrange that I couldn't stand. I put a set of Mules in. I'm not sure I'd say they are a perfect match, but for my tastes I like it infinitely better than the Juggernauts. I thought they were a little bright at first, but ended up keeping this in C# standard, and I really like how it balances out.

I love how it plays and feels - I'm happy I just happened upon, because I would have never given it a shot based on the signature association.

(I also think the double creams were a perfect match for this finish.)

Beautiful axe there!! Congrats!!

Man, that's beautiful.

But what I really want to know is, can it be set up as well as a Suhr or Anderson?

its set up amazing, plays effortlessly, and sounds great. easily as good as the suhr guitars I have owned, andersons also. as good for sure. no better, or worse, just another well made guitar.

I usually shy away also, but I played one of these, and loved it. then a killer deal came up, so I grabbed it.

Congrats man, its beautiful
I love ebony boards

ebony boards are my favorite. I am seriously digging this guitar. made adjustments to the action, changed strings to what I usually play, etc. loving it! really fat tones. I really like the juggernauts. at first the feel threw me off a little, but I am used to them now.

Beautiful! I loooove a nice top like that.
