Upgraded My Jackson PC-1

[Rich7620]

Finally got rid of all that gold hardware which is probably the only thing i didn't like about it, Thanks to Tonelover for the Floyd and bhuard75 for the Stainless hardware ordered a Brass Big Block and Titanium saddles from FU. I already had the heavy Noiseless springs and Trem Stopper from when i 1st bought it.
Do i think the Block made a difference eh its slight to my ears seems like a little more top and overall fatness and definition , id like to get a Titanium block and try that as well but that will come later. Also took out the Tone Knob and plugged it i don't use them and its in the way for me getting to the 5way




Crappy Pictures thanks to iPhone and it being dark

Why yes yes i am, Gave up on that place went downhill after the change. Too many internet morons over there for my taste

Nice I thought so. You bought it from Nick 1point8 right?

I traded a Les Paul Standard for the PC1 in person then later traded nick for his Suhr S6. Then you got it.

My old red PC1 just sold on here again too.

Yea i got it from Nick his S6 was killer, I saw the Red one inhere for sale, don't like the look of the red that much though it might look better in person. Id like to get another one perf the Chameleon, or the Splatter don't see the splatter happening though, Im broke and there all sold out i believe. Hell I even like the Supreme LOL.

That looks great! I wish Jackson would do a few more hardware swaps on their production guitars - black looks great on the right PC1 as you've proved!!

looks sick =0 much prefer the black hardware

the tone knob placement would annoy me as well, seems like a strange place to put one

 

[dpeterson]

glad you got rid of that stupid knob BLOCKING the 5 way... I had a few older pc1's (no dumb 3rd knob), the superIII was the first thing to go.

Yea i never understood why they put the tone knob on there anyway most of his older guitars don't have them and its just a bad spot. Ive never honestly heard the Super3 aside from live clips w Phil is it that bad?
