206207Anybody know the exact model of this Soloist? I just scored it on ebay for $560! Pretty sure its American made (not Japanese) and they usually sell for at least 1800. I've looked at a lot of models and can't seem to find an exact equivalent. The pickup system seems modified. Maybe this is from the custom shop or perhaps just end-user modded. Been setting it up tonight. Whoever owned it drop tuned and the Floyd was out of whack when brought up to standard tuning. Plays and sounds great. Awesome. i was about to drop the cash for a USA Select Soloist. Can't beat this price though.

Death be to Floyd roses!

A word from your friendly local ex-guitar setup guy :)

Yeah it had been 20 years since I messed with one. Wasn't too long before I was back in the saddle. Once they are setup they are pretty cool and stay in tune.

Here is what you do. Get the series number off the back (hopefully there is one), if not it might be stolen.

Take a picture of it and email Jackson telling them you are trying to identify the year and make of this model.
