For 2026 it could happen that the new 50th anniversary Jackson becomes the main guitar (as Adrian switches main guitars every 10 years or so) and if he retires the drop-D prototypes, the green Jackson could become the new drop-D guitar along with the DT300 and even probably one of the Lados.
By the way, the white Jackson had a Kahler Steeler as well? Or did it have a standard Floyd?
About the pickups, I’d assume the white Jackson had at first PAF/SD or so and during FOTD tour the neck pickup was replaced with a black DiMarzio PAF Pro, my assumption about that comes from the fact...
I think that the neck humbucker on the white Jackson wasn’t replaced with a black Seymour Duncan during FOTD, it was in fact a black DiMarzio PAF Pro, in the photos it looks like it. Also, I didn’t know that the CAR Jackson had a Kahler Steeler, unless the document is wrong, I’ve always thought...
AFAIK Dave’s white Jackson had DiMarzio pickups (black PAF Pro in neck and white SD in bridge) the other guitars (CAR Jackson, 3-tone sunburst Strat and Blue Sunburst Strat) had Duncans by the time
P.S: Anyone knows what are the pickups on the red Strat from the BQOBD and From Here to Eternity...
A question, does Jackson custom shop make San Dimas models? I would like to build a Dave Murray CAR Jackson inspired guitar (HSH, maple fretboard, black pickguard, Floyd, chrome hardware, SD pickups) but I don’t know if they make San Dimas.
Other option I have is buying an Adrian Smith...
Love that new collection, finally some recognition to Janick haha, love all the guitars and the bass. Also, I would have preferred Adrian's Jackson to be HSH so that it would be a direct homage to his 1986 Jackson, but anyway, very nice homage to
Maiden!!!
My favorite solo songwriter is definitely Harris, if we talk about teams, my favorite would be Smith/Dickinson/Harris, loads of great songs, also, shout out to the Harris/Gers team, great songs also.
So the one from the left is the FR classic Strat from 1999, it had hot rails on a tortoiseshell pickguard originally, then it got the pickguard from the photo during Maiden England Tour rehearsals and then it went back again to hot rails and tortoiseshell pickguard, middle one is the ‘64...
Got the book one day after its official launch, It’s nice, but regarding guitars, I was expecting more…
From Adrian: The Goldtop is THE heavy metal guitar for me, it has appeared on almost every album Maiden did and was Adrian’s first high-end guitar, sad that we didn’t see it. The Jackson...
Yeah, I hope Dave brings something special next year!
P.S: Are any of Dave’s old guitars still on working condition? (‘57 and ‘64 strats, the ESP’s, the Jacksons, etc) I would like to see Davey bring his old axes, as Adrian did.
