DarkHeart Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 A 5er that I can actually get along with Ive had several 5 strings over the last couple of years and non have stayed in my sweaty mitts more than a couple of months thanks mainly to chunky neck syndrome (the basses not me!) BUT I tried a Jackson JS3V on friday and it felt sooo good, a wide but shallow neck, shallow being my holy grail! now Id done a bit of homework on the model before I went to see it and was really pleasantly suprised that it isnt infact a solid black paint job but a see thru black over quilted maple....very nice indeed and its got the very metal pointy headstock perfect for the 2 rock bands iI currently reside in. Just waiting for some Roto Nexus to come through the post then I can start really giving it some beans (hope im not the only one that isnt too keen on playing someone elses well worn strings). Anyway here it is.

Cameronj279 Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 My drummer has one of these. Very shallow necks from what I remember! Couldnt get along with it myself but he loves it! Quote

Rich Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Lovely, right up as far as the nut Sorry, I'm allergic to pointy headstocks but apart from that it's a gorgeous looker. That quilt is lovely. Quote
