I was going to get a customshop soloist untill I got the quote back of $7000. :no: I was one of 6 other guys that said no way to guitar asylum yesterday because of the big increase in jacksons prices and they said the same for fender costumshop as well. I could almost buy two suhr's or prs guitars for that.
 
Greg you have some really nice stuff. Don't sweat it. I'm betting yourwhite Suhr and Jacskon Warrior are as nice as anything out there. Go buy an EBMM JP6 BFR ;)
 
For $7Gs it better be old and say Fender or Gibson on the business end of the peghead.

I think it's time some CEOs pull their heads out od their ass's and take a look around at whats going on in the world.

I am with both of you thats just plain rediculous.
 
And it was not that crazy of a guitar. It would have the granite finish,reverse headstock and crosses on the fretboard. It also had 2 duncans and floyd 1 volume no tone thats it.
 
Buy a Luxxtone for $2G's and get a better handmade guitar with your exact specs. Jerry is the man!

I have him building 2 for me right now. He was Zakk Wyldes tech for awhile and has his own custom shop in Pasadena. Just a quality guy who gets it.

Yeah, the luxxtone stuff looks nice!, I am thinking bout getting one myself.
 
$7000 must have been list price, no? Still waaay too expensive, though.

Hey HH - One word, QuckSilver. The best all hand made 24-fret electric guitar in the world. Feels better, plays better, looks better than any Jackson or PRS out there. They come with massive features and extras. Takes about 4 months for the build. You can get the standard for under 2K to start with.

I've dealt with Ed Roman once - just once.

Luxxtones are bad ass. I have proto #2 and it is amazing. I want a 2nd for sure.

Thats what I thought until I asked him and he said no that was the price out of my pocket.

For real? That´s so insane that I don´t even know what to say. $7000 street for those specs boggles the mind, but I suppose they want to scale back on the amount of custom orders. Go back to 2002-2003 and that guitar would have had a list price under $4000.
 
The local shop here can't even get the Jackson rep to return a phone call when someone wants to place a custom shop order
