I have this guitar and love it, but... it has really cheap pots, the floyd started peal off in some point wtf... bufore buying it I test it with many others, this guy plays fair and he does a terrible job demostrating the sustained sound, it has much more sustain than that, the guy at guitar center demostrated the sustained and the thing whent for ever and ever! not like this guy... if you can buy it cheap do so if not its a pass for a better axe.

can everyone who can please explain to me how good the action is on this guitar, everything else I'm sure about but the action is the only thing I'm worried about
I bought this guitar seven years ago and i don't like it - not good for shredding (particularly sweeping), it's hard to get a good tone, this guitar is too heavy and there's too much noise with it because of the neck in the body. This guitar can be good for old school trash metal but not for playing guitar at a higher level.
@RJTheRaccoon1992 but if im unlucky, i could get the bridge with low tuning stability. that's y i want the OFR. And Jackson USA line is too expensive for me :(
@leesm0125 I have owned several USA jacksons including a custom shop... Always been a Jackson user/fan. The other day, however, my point of reference changed. I tried a PRS SE Torero. NO shark fins, but side markers; Neck through, original Floyd rose and 2 super hot EMGs.... I still will buy a Jackson PC-1 for the sustainer eventually, But that Torero is approx $1k. 1/2 price of the USA and IMO equal. Not almost, not nearly, but absolutely equal. Try one and see what I am saying.
@BeezyFilms Dude, that guitar is not so perfect as he put it out to be, and the sustain wasnt that good. Him being products manager for Jackson only shows that he is biased.
it has two semoure duncan hotrail pickups as well as the bridge humbucker, very versitile guitar. I have used it live as well as recording and it sounds amazing through my Engl invader ... Get one seriously
oh gosh. I am terribly mistaken! I thought Joe delaney was WMS's best guitarist. I just now found MUCH differently. This is the best I have seen on here.
He said the middle and neck pickups were STK1s, but aren't they hotrails? I noticed he also said the DX10D was alder, but I'm pretty sure it's basswood.
i hate this guy, he is so lucky to have this job, a great guitar, very expencive for argentina, its lije 3000 dollars for us, you americans al also lucky

The SL1 is manufactured in the USA.

@TtotheBdoubleO Made in Japan or made in the USA makes little difference.. in my humble opinion, both have excellent standards and quality.
