This Jackson is interesting for two reasons when we come across it on the marketplace: it is a Professional and therefore a good quality guitar from Japan, and it is a Stealth and you don't see that very often because they were only made between 1992 and 1995. Apparently the seller wants to get rid of it because he agrees to the offer fairly quickly as long as we pick it up quickly. It is a terrible drive (Tilburg) so it has to be on Saturday. It turns out to be a trade-in on which the man still had to invest € 50, so we did well again. At least, we think that's the story because we don't quite understand Tilburgs ...
Beautiful Jackson, anyway. The body has had a few dings and the tip of the headstock has been bumped really well once, but for a guitar of 20 years it is not too bad. The humbucker was probably replaced at some point and the Schaller tremolo is probably not original either. The tone knob turns the wrong way and must therefore be replaced by one from a lefty. In short, there has been some tinkering, but it looks nice, has a nice thin neck and soars nicely.
