  • Greek axe ace Gus G. shows off his fiery Jackson USA and Pro Series Signature San Dimas models. “It will probably come off as a surprise to most people because they’ve been used to seeing me play the Star shape for many, many years,” said Gus G. “What most people don’t know is I grew up on a Strat. This is something I have always wanted to go back to and hold another Strat-style guitar. I came up with the idea and approached the guys at Jackson about making such a guitar, and they agreed to do the San Dimas shape for me.”
    Both USA and Pro Series models are loaded with Gus G.’s all-new Blackfire Titan humbucking pickups, a new endeavor for the Firewind guitarist.
    “A little while ago I decided to start my own pickup company,” said Gus G. “I approached Jackson about it, and I said, ‘Look, I have these two prototypes.’ They were cool enough to let me do that .”

    About Jackson:
    Jackson began back in the late 1970s, when heavy music experienced a flamboyant and virtuosic resurgence in popularity and a small Southern California guitar repair shop became the epicenter of a new level of shred-approved excellence. Ever since then, Jackson guitars have been universally lauded as the metal guitars; the shred machines-highly original high-performance instruments of distinctive style and formidable substance. From metal’s chart-topping peaks to its darkest recesses, for discerning guitarists all over the globe, Jackson is the only way to go.

    I think I'm going to have to get the pro version. Love that Jackson puts graphite rods in the neck. Jacksons have the very best necks.
    Very cool color too Gus. Very cool. Love that two point NON LOCKING BRIDGE. Man, I've bought and sold so many guitars. Wish I had kept mine.
    Maple necks are the best. I can't really play a guitar with a finish on the back of the neck. Too used to unfinished necks.
    Wow. I didn't realjze it's a neck thru. That's even more killer! Thanks man. Be safe sir!!!!! Rock on and stay metal!!!!!

    San Dimas is the Saint of Redemption (Dimas was the "good" thief an cross at Christ right side) and in n old interview he told that he believes in redemption, and another thing was that he said that he doesn't use super strat bodies anymore, but here is, returning to this shape... Like a Redepmtion... So that (maybe) is why he call it San Dimas really HAHAHAHAHAHA... Sorry!

I had an idea of writing a book, I wanted to do a collection of where are they now type interviews with guitarists that I would consider semi unsung and extremely influential.

At any rate, I say all that in hope you will beare with me when I speak the truth and say that this guy, Gus G, was such a disaster, if not to say a downright travesty, of a Ozzy guitarist. However, seeing the guy here, he seems pretty cool in his own right, so perhaps I should relent.

      Pretty sure it wasn't a Soloist, if you're referring to the Vai guitar, which btw is being sold as a replica by Jackson now, as the guitar Vai played was a bolt on neck guitar. Soloists are thru- neck guitars.

      U Can Review Now yes. Maybe they haven’t always been neck-through. Also you can custom built guitars at Jackson so... the body looks exactly like a soloist body. That movie was the 80s and Jackson guitars began in 1980 so.. only a few years after was the movie. The guitar Steve Vai used in the movie Crossroads is probably a Jackson Soloist with a bolt on neck.

Fender Squier Strat (been with me since I was 9 (first electric) it’s modified. I then bought American Stratocaster. My first Jackson was a JS22. Standard trem. I swapped it to a Floyd Rose Rail tail. I modded the hell out of it making it METAL. EMGs, Grover lock tuners bridge work etc. that’s my first metal guitar.
