Well, just sold my Jackson (sorr UK guys but needed cashspace).
Sold it to a local Houston guy. Bout my age or bit younger would say (early 30's), bout 6'4 tall, normal "American Quarterback" type.
Anyway, I was chatting to him and he said "oh yeah, have a few jackson's, check out my site".

HOLY POOP!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think he has enough white rhoads models...

I mean, come on, you need at least 30 to be a serious guitar player...

and VERY glad he paid in cash and not Gila monsters (which it seem's he also breeds (gleanded from his site).
Kinda tough to shred on a gila monster, LOL, well maybe not but surely not legal ROFLMAO

^aren't they poisonous?



I think steve irwin was poking around them once, he'll only go close if he's in mortal danger....

Yeah, his site has a link to go "guitar" or "Gila Monster" and he states they are indeed poisonous and will not sell to minors!
Although why a minor would want one it amazes me. Thought they prefered Canaries and such? :)

Cool stuff. I'll bet most of these guitars will cost you an arm and a leg. He even has a Roswell Rhoads. The Mr Horsepower guitar is pretty cool. How can anyone beat a guitar with sidepipes!

Dunno about the lizard thing but his guitar collection rules.

One observation.... where are his amps? His wife must love him coz he never makes enough noise to wake up the neighbourhood.

JP
he is predictably single.
Also, he said to me he is not a "gifted" player? :)
He has ALOT of surplus income and likes Jacksons I guess.
