3. Tell us the story of your first Jackson
My first Jackson was my very first guitar ! I was 15 and the guy at the shop showed me several guitars… I knew strictly nothing about guitars at this time, but the one I hardly wanted to own was the Jackson ! It’s an old Pro model, I don’t know exactly which one as I’ve never seen those Jackson mics on any Jackson guitar …
The fact is it was the only guitar that made me say “whaoh” !
4. What Jacksons do you wish to own (dream guitar etc)
My wish list :
- my first custom model that is currently being built (an all black soloist with my signature and Bensoussan’s cockfighter logo )
- my second custom ? Still waiting for the custom shop spec form, but it should be based on the 25th anniversary King Kelly
- I’ll need a Randy and a Roswell Rhoads for my collection I guess…
5. Finally, Why do you play Jackson?
As my very first guitar was a Jackson, with a lovely shape, and a killer colour, it sounded great and it was easy to play, I never really tried to play something else ! Jackson makes cool shapes with very comfortable necks, and I like to feel they are wood made ! Moreover the sound is enormous !
