Awsome guitar Kev, will Mike be making those in the future also or is it strickly 1 of 1 deal? Enjoy it, today I think your the envy of the board.

You can really tell how much hard work was put into it just from the pictures. Does sound & play as good as your other Jackal?

You play 100 watt amps with them. I mostly go to Greek Orthodox church where there only Byzantine chant but when im with my mother she goes to one with a band, but they dont play stacks. Thats sounds like one rockin christian band.

yea although my carvins are set to 50 watts i'll adjust wattage according to the size of the room we are doing. sometime after the 1st of the year i am supposed to be going down to Houston TX to jam with Isreal Houghton and the New Breed at one of their services at the Olsteens chruch and their chruch is the old Houston astrodome with a congregation of 35,000 regular in attendance so i think i'll be set to 100 that day!! i have a shot at touring with he and chris tomlin in the spring of 2009 so i am going down to audition i already know all the material except the new new stuff.

i never dreamed i could play my style (randy style) as a christain guitarist. man this is great and to get paid well to do it too is just incredible :!:

Kev I congrats on getting the new Jackal!! It's nice, I saw the pic in 'Randy's lost guitar' thread. *r*

Me and Mike have emailed back and forth a few times, but in the last few weeks he hasn't answered my last email...but I understand he's busy with school and things, so it's all good. But hopefully I can get him to start building the white pinstripe sometime.

Who is Israel Houghton? Haven't heard of him. Great you get to play with him, and also great that you get to play guitar as a christian guitarist as well. I would like to do that myself...maybe someday I can. Keep the Faith always bro!

zebrastripes · **Posted:** Sun Nov 02, 2008 3:42 am

Hey Kevin!

Nice new axe!!!!! have a great time playing her!

Cheers

Jeepman · **Posted:** Mon Nov 03, 2008 12:15 am

hey Kev...I noticed that the brass tail piece,where the strings come through,is reversed on the new guitar in comparison to the black Jackson...

any special reason for that?

I noticed that too. It does look better that way with those fret markers. *r*

DavidDenson · **Posted:** Mon Nov 03, 2008 5:19 am

And also the pickguard on the white one is smaller than the one on the black one....so maybe they reversed the tailpiece to match better with the smaller pickguard??

Curious Kev, let us know.

Jeepman · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 1:14 am

I think Kev's just sayin' that he don't know or care why those things are different on the new guitar,frank...he loves it regardless

that's what I got out of it anyway..........

frank · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 1:54 am
