My new Jackson Soloist SL2Q MAH in Transparent blue with curly Maple top..I had heard or read that some people say that Jackson really didn't do a good job on this one,but I have had about 10 Jacksons and still have my made in USA Soloist from 2009 and know that most of their stuff is good quality,so I took a chance and I am so glad I did !
This has become my favorite guitar even over my USA model.I did take out the original SD "Distortion" bridge pickup and put in a Black Winter trembucker and man it just kicks some serious ass for $1K..
I have been all over this guitar and didn't find even a small minor finish flaw or frets needing some work,and the Ebony fretboard really lets the notes fly off the fretboard,and it stays in tune even with heavy whammy bar use..the next one is the ESP LTD "Black Metal" with the Strat style body,another kickass guitar for a fair price,I will be ordering one in 6-8 weeks.
