#2 or #3.

Probably #2 because I like the color better. Would definitely have to get one with Ebony board.

On a personal preference note, I would be looking at used Horizons as well. IDK why but if I have a Jackson I want a Floyd.


HUGE edit: I said #1 but I meant #2, natural quilt. I really dislike the newer headstocks. Have to be old school.
 
I'd buy none of them. A Jackson without a Floyd is not a Jackson.
 
#3. Proper headstock, ebony board, unique color, and volume pot not crammed against pickup like some similar guitars.
 
I kinda lean towards EMGs but open to Duncan's I guess, and this would be a Scott Ian type guitar, so no Floyd. I have no use for a trem.
I didn't realize the newer soloist headstock shape was not well liked. The original Jackson style one is hard to beat though.
 
Misha model.

No pointy / hockey stick headstocks or Floyd. It's 2017 man.

Great pickups.

I think the 3x3 headstocks look cool, especially after having one in hand. Grew on me real quick. Can't do floyds anymore.

Says the guy with 4 Fenders in his picture. :lol: :LOL:

jkjk..People like what they like. I just think those headstocks are horrendous. Those along with the ESP cock stock are an absolute no for me.
 
I like the copper one. 3x3 headstock is always a winner for me. I like symmetry, even if the headstock is not completely symmetrical. Copper finish looks really cool to me. Just like the EBMM Majesty guitars, for some reason, that copper finish speaks to me.
 
#4...YES, pointy headstock and all, too bad it's not in reverse too :thumbsup: ...the other 3x3 one always looked like shit to me.

Being PC is overrated. Pointys rule. :lol: :LOL:

I've never cared what headstock it has, a killer guitar is a killer guitar. 2 pointys and 2 fender headstock Charvels/Jacksons here. All Floyds.
 
Great looking axes for sure. But made in Indonesia going for such prices? :confused:
