Isn't there a saying that lightning doesn't strike twice?
Congrats on your two rosies! Being a more than proud owner of a rosewood Luke myself I can glimpse how you must feel right now...!

The JP6: Specs,pics...

Peer Pressure....

All right all right enough already....

First I had Scott, Sterling and Steve Lukather on me about the Luke and now I got you guys asking for pics.......

As you all can guess by now I am an easy pushover.....especially when it comes to guitars.....

Will blackberry pics do??? These were taken with the guitar in the back of my truck. It still has that new guitar smell.....

I will get a proper pic of this one and the Luke together with a better camera and lighting.....I sure hope they get along well........

That is just a great color combo.

One would assume things could be worse...

Thanks for the pics, that color combination sure looks great!

Hey thanks for all the comments guys!!

You are all reacting and feeling the way I would want you to......jealous..........

Just kidding.

I had never played a JP before, and one of the things that I notice right away is the neck profile is different. I had read that it is a 1 11/16" nut which is what I prefer (and the partial reason I wanted that Jackson PC1)....

And I am not sure how the piezo works yet.....anyone got any tips/tricks for it????

It's killing me that the guitar is sitting in my truck, I think I may need to leave work early today.........

Nice and great job, two rosewoods and two killer guitars, you will figure the peizo out quickly, it is awesome especially on a JP

Mike - you've got some mad skillz - nice work in a very short period of time

A lot of the people here have experimented with different outputs for the Piezo, but even on the clean channel of a regular amp you'll notice it right away. Some here are A/Bing their line to their rig and the B side to either a PA system or Acoustic Guitar amp.

As a JP6 owner myself, I have to tell you, the piezo sounds UNREAL through a PA or Acoustic Guitar amp. UNREAL!

You know full well what you were writing!!

Haha! Like others have mentioned before, that White/Rosewood is a DEFINITE keeper. What an amazing combination.

 

[bkrumme]

I love the color combo. Like I've told many before. You will fall in love with that rosewood neck over and over again. It'll definitely keep you playing.
