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 really appreciate when signature models are actually unique instruments and not just
stock models with a different paint job. Congratulations.
Everything about this guitar is unique. Great breakdown.
the guitar shape isn't, add some bevels to the arm contour and the body cut. they never update that
@@spectre3492 dont believe it's an update thing, it's on purpose he obviously wanted a modern guitar with classic appointments. there's a bevel on arm and that's pretty much what you need the most
If I wanted a Jackson 7 string, this would be the one I'd get. 🔥👌
This is the coolest guitar you guys have ever made... the price tho.....
it has locking tuners, a evertune and bareknuckle pickups. this is a extremely cheap price point for a guitar with those components. not even including the pickups go for over £2000
Its around 1700€ which is a pretty tight price considering the specs
I love that riff that goes flghhh flghhh flghhh.
This is pretty the much the most closest you can get to a genuine Fender Strat as 7-string these days. Hopefully these make their way to Europe.
Well, guess the wallet is about to get a bit lighter.
Always loved Josh's Jackson, and this model with the strat style head and everything else is just amazing. Gotta go and order one
Jackson is killin it man, relax!
love it! Surprised it took him so long, been drooling over the original for years! Now we need one in Fiesta Red!
beautiful.
i love the shape of the cutout for the single-sized humbucker. and the placement of knobs out of the way.
Gonna move from Ibanez due to the knob thing, I can customize it my own way but it butchers the looks of the guitar
As a southpaw, I've always dreamt about Jackson but lefties are hard to obtain and cost as much as a wing of a Boeing. I am glad to have found a custom superstrat for half the price of a Jackson but the dream never dies.
Beatiful guitar
Dude, that's fucking sick! I want one!
❤
I still cant believe there is no Jack Butler sig in the lineup as a staple of the catalogue.
I have the same volume knob settings. No tone but I am using 1 meg pot on bridge and 500k on neck with treble bleeds on both
It's expensive, but that is a lot of features. The color and headstock aren't my taste but it's well equipped.
ESP and schecter, even Ibanez offer more at a lower affordable price point. Although those aren’t signature models
The fact this is still more expensive than the new American series is ludicrous
i still love you guys though
I want one...
Awesome looking guitar but you accidentally made the price double what it should be 🤨
Jackson I love you and I love Josh and Northlane , but 3800$ CAD is smoking crack . I get it has bareknuckles and an evertune but an ESP E-II Horizon is the same price and they come with evertunes and 27" . Hard sell , would love to see a non evertune version for cheaper !
Edit : much cheaper in Europe , order there ! Significantly less due to manufacturing laws in NA .
I just wrote a similar comment about the price. Totally unjustified. I wish they moved production to Asia and reduced the price by 50% for those who does not mind having an Asian guitar. I've owned an Edwards Les Paul and it was on par with a Gibson that cost 4 times more. For those who can afford USA model, let them buy the US one.
For real, crazy price considering you can get a 1000 series LTD with similar specs (better in the case of stainless frets) for half the cost of this one. It's a shame, it's such a rad guitar but I don't think they're going to sell as many as they could because of the price
incredibly sick guitar but that price tag is kinda steep for a pro series, even with the hardware and pickups,
does anybody know if these are gonna be made in mexico like the rest of the pro series models, or in a different factory?
wait i guess theyve moved manufacturing since i got my pro series years ago and are made all over the place
wild
It’s Korean… and cheaper in almost every other country outside the US.
Bruh he makes plying Scarab look so easy
Finally a 7 string Strat
Sweet
I have three jackson two japanese and one pro mexican, Josh is a very interesting guitarist the guitar looks great, but the price is too high... this time I'll look at something different from jackson for my next 7 string.
What is this tuned to?
lord help me I’m bout to bust
I love Seafoam green!! Also I love Jackson, but on models like DK2 and most other models the volume needs to put lower near the tremolo because when your playing you hit the volume once and a while which turns it down... So its cool both volume tone (not that you use the tone very often) is out of the way! Hope Jackson will make 6 string of this model sometime down the road! Jackson makes the greatest guitar on the planet especially the USA custom shop ones! Mike Shannon is a luthier God!!
Yes its the most expensive pro series Jackson ever, as far as I know anyway. But you'd be hard pressed to find a production guitar with specs this fire in the industry, and you'd be waiting at least like a year if you order something custom. He even moved the controls out of the way! All in all good job lads. Good music, cool gear.
"But you'd be hard pressed to find a production guitar with specs this fire in the industry"
I mean...not really. LTD and Schecter offer similarly spec'd guitars for less. Made in Korea too, also by world music, so likely in the same spaces this one is made. As far as going custom, Kiesels quoting I think 10-12 weeks at the moment but even with their longer wait times I've only ever seen it get to like 18-20. Would likely be paying more though. Also worth mentioning Jackson are charging like $1000 less outside of North America for this guitar, which just goes to show they're ripping their NA customers off.
It's really a shame because this guitar is rad and Josh deserves for it to be successful. But even as someone who loves Jackson and wants them to succeed, it's hard to deny they keep screwing things that should be easy W's up.
Edit: I did a mock up of this guitar on Kiesels builder. I can't price the ET, BKP, or roasted neck as they haven't added those options to the builder yet, but they do offer the ability to get them, you'd just have to call in to order. But with everything else - body shape, scale length, number of strings, similar color (They call it tropic), ebony board, extra jumbo frets (theirs are stainless so plus there)- it comes to $1850 shipped with a soft case. Add in the ET, the BKP, the roasted maple neck, and you could also have them move the knobs, and you probably aren't going to be too far over the cost of the JS sig and you would have it in a few months, not over a year.
@@lucaburchartz516 Ltd has guitars (including strat shaped ones like the soloist) that come stock with evertunes, stainless frets, locking tuners, and fishmans (not bkpus but still in the more expensive side as far as pickups go), and ebony boards, that are also made in the same factory in South Korea that sell for significantly less.
If you want an example look up the M-1007B ET. Comes with the et, SS frets, locking tuners, ebony board, five piece walnut/maple neck (not roasted but arguable a more premium spec), a mahogany body with a flame maple top (not veneer), luminlays, flush mounted Dunlop strap locks, FF modern dual Alnico (instead of Alnico/ceramic which is a more expensive option) pickups, and a hard shell case - for $1600.
The strat headstock is not an added cost for Jackson as they are owned by fender, and the color while cool isn’t a justification for the stupid price difference. Flat out, Jackson is overcharging for this model in North America. It is not a good or even fair deal here, and it sucks because Josh deserves to have them sell well.
@@lucaburchartz516 I just realized you might be referring to the Kiesel. I believe they charge $400usd for the et, $100 for the roasted neck, which puts you at $2450 before the bkps. So, like I said, you could have Kiesel build you one for not much more and it’ll be a MIA semi-custom guitar. Sure, you don’t get the strat headstock (oh no!), but you do get stainless frets. Again, there’s no justification for the price here in NA.
@@lucaburchartz516 lol. Bud, I get you’re a super fan and all, desperate to defend it, but come on. “The headstock is so cool because it doesn’t cause neckdive! (Lolol) That justifies it being about $1000 more than it should be!”. Riiiight.
No matter how hard you try to justify or defend it, it’s overpriced here. If it was priced on par with what it is overseas, it would do much better than it will at this price which puts it in a market segment with much higher tier guitars than it actually is.
Anecdotally, if it was priced where it should be, I would be seriously considering it. But as it stands, it’s not a compelling choice because of its ridiculous markup. Flip through the comments here and elsewhere this has been discussed, and you’ll see I’m sharing the prevailing sentiment. It is not a criticism of the musician but rather the company, so don’t get so deep in your feeling about it.
@@lucaburchartz516 lol, good for you matey, doesn’t change a thing I said unfortunately, and the only confirms you’re a super fan who is unable to see the forest through the trees in this conversation
The headstock shape doesn’t effect neck dive. Plenty of brands with various headstock shapes and no dive because it’s simply down to the body weighing more than the neck as a whole not the shape of the headstock which is why you claiming “the headstock means no neck dive!” as some sort of justification for the ridiculous pricing here is fucking hilarious. As for him saying “it feels like like a CS guitar!”, great, an artist is stoked on his own signature model. More news at 11. In reality, it’s going to feel just like the guitars which this one should be in a similar price range of being made along side it at the same factory in the LTDs and Schecters and whatever else world music makes.
Again, it’s a cool guitar but it is absolutely over priced here in the US/NA. Absolutely NOTHING you have said, or will say, is going to dispute that. Jackson/Fender is fucking Josh by overcharging here. It should be the same cost as it is overseas and then it would be muuuuch more competitive. But as it stands, it’s just not worth the extra $1000 they’ve tacked on here. That’s not taking away from Josh or shitting on the guitar, it’s criticizing the decision made by Jackson/Fender to overcharge so feel free to stop saying silly shit trying to argue something you can’t.
IM ALSO JOSH SMITH!!! YAY!!! CAN I HAVE ONE?!?! PLEASE!!!!
Want Jon Deiley signature ESP E II
No way Im paying 2699 for a Korean model.
$3,730 for me 🙃
I wish, there was a six string version of this beauty :'(
And 8 string
Sadly, that won't happen. Bcoz of their guitar arrangements. But, I love the idea of seeing a 6 string version of this Soloist. That'll be cool!
Phil collen signature is similar
Dont put the 7th string.
So it's not just me!
What riff is he playing at 1:59?
2.50 in Talking Heads (instrumental version here specifically)
@@inksentia thanks bro
@@JaydenLayne_ enjoy :)
That’s not Josh Smith. You bet I’m coming up in May.
Lefty?
It's an amazing guitar, but it should have SS frets. :(
I'm curious why nobody is filming promo videos from guitar player's point of view?) You're definitely aiming at guitar player's
400 for BKP, 340 for Evertune, 27 Inch scale length which isn't in their lineup costs money cause the CC has to be reprogrammed, baked maple neckthrough adds cost, Ebony adds cost, Fender Licensed headstock adds cost also Korea is a 1st world country where labor cost isn't as low as you think. There's plenty reason for the price if you guys understand how capitalism works xD
oh shoot can't forget the unique wiring that adds cost, can't forget the nice padded gig bag, it all goes somewhere, it's not that manufacturers are doing a hidden secret of ripping you off, it's how the business works.
@@thomasmims7850 🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@Drew-vw1mn nice emojis bro
Crazy how LTD can do all that (minus the BKP but sub in Fishmans and add in stainless frets), also in korea (probably at the same world music factory, and they already make 27'' scale guitars too), for half the cost with their 1000 series. Schecter too. Also, Fender owns Jackson, so not sure why you think they would need to pay a fee like Warmoth or something.
It's also worth mentioning they're selling these things for like $1000 less outside North America. Wouldn't be able to do that if the margins/costs really added up the way you outlined. They're overcharging NA buyers, plain and simple.
Good try though.
@@Andrew_182 I asked josh about this and he said that NA retailers have MRP not MSRP (msrp is recommended price mrp is mandated price) and there is nothing he could do. Once jackson recommends a price to the rest of the world it’s mandated in NA. In Australia they are much more reasonable in terms of price.
$2700 plus tax for a Korean made Pro Series with no Stainless Steel frets. Absolutely pathetic. Absolutely greedy. This type of pricing being where this guitar is made sets a TERRIBLE precedent. Other companies will follow suit to try and pull the wool over everyone's head, and they will start trying to pull fast ones by charging people these outrageous prices for Indonesian, Chinese, Korean, etc made guitars. $2700 for a Korean made! Don't let Fender/Jackson get away with this! Don't purchase these guitars! I promise you they are trying to slip one by us by charging this much for import made!

Old Thomas gave it a valiant go, but LTD is doing all that minus the bareknuckles but add in Fishmans and SS frets, in korea likely at the same world music factory no less, so there goes the "costs money cause the CC has to be reprogrammed" line item. Add in the fact that Fender owns Jackson, so they wouldn't need to pay a licensing fee like a third party like Warmoth does, and there goes another. Not to mention that they're able to sell these guitars for $1000 less outside of North America, which wouldn't be possible if the margins where anywhere near what Tommy boy is suggesting.
But yes, those of us who us see this for what it is, a ripoff, just don't understand how capitalism works, obviously.
It's a shame Jackson/Fender are messing this up yet again. I love the brand and think this guitar is super rad, but I'm absolutely not willing to pay double the price as I would for a comparably specced guitar from a company who is actually looking to give their buyers good value like LTD.
It’s just way too pricey. You can get an Ltd 7 string with evertune much cheaper and have money to throw in tuners and pickups
Hello i am a jackson player, i have 3. Could you please do a king V and Kelly shape raindow crackle guitar! I think the design is sweet and i would definitely get one!
This dude needs two strings, not seven…
Fax
LMAO check out scarabs riff in this video and quantum flux.
Amd if gana go that far as a bone nut delete them what about the wood? That's alive alot longer then all of us andthe stupid animals so killing that tree is way worst then a synthetic bone nut, redicouluse concept in general
why is the music in mono 💀
Does he play guitar or only spam strings like a baby? LOL
The guitar is an axe for metal but man, this man is soooo tedious when talkin...
27inch scale for a 7 string low tuning guitar... Just drop c and use a 6 string.
no
What even is the attempted logic behind this statement?
@@ktsproductionstudio why extend the note range when down tuning. That is 'what is the logic ' either way its going to be a shitty metal core band
@@fabian7463 because they want to lol
Cool guitar but he sounds so bored
I miss old Northlane... Discoveries and Singularity were so much more complex, I'm a guitar player and musician too and I feel like their new stuff just must be much more boring to play.
It’s not about writing the most technical riffs you can come up with for every section of the song. It’s about writing full songs that people remember.
@@CrzyWzrd4L This 100%!!!
I'm sure it sounds and plays amazingly, no doubt. But, it looks boring and fugly! That headstock looks ridiculous.
