the purple and silver Jackson VVV with the rosewood fretboard? Surely someone on here knows where it is, right? I just wander if its available.
just do a google search for " jackson vvv " and it will be right there.

He did go through periods of selling a LOT of guitars......this is it...
It is from 1989, which seems correct as it has the trem recess but the trem itself isn't recessed, it still sits above the body. This still gives the Gibson style neck angle while allowing more movement at the back.
Jackson were doing this to pretty much all their models in this time period, it's sort of a transition from non-recessed to fully recessed.

well make sure your not confusing this one with the red/black charvel as its been on the bay alot lately and its a bit questionable.
As you can tell by my collection I am very partial to ebony fretboards but for some reason - maybe it just goes well with this color combo, I dig the rosewood board on this VVV. Plus at least its bound which gives it a little more class.
I would be interested in this guitar if anyone has any contact info for the owner.

That guitar is like a questionable blow job to me-- Even the worst one I ever received was JUST WONDERFUL !!!! Jacksons (as well as Les Pauls) , to me , NEED an ebony fingerboard. Still very cool and I would be proud to own it.

Maple is my fave, but I'm not averse to rosewood. There is cheap rosewood, like on lots of guitars but the stuff Jackson use on high end guitars is a step above.
There's also cheap ebony so it's all about quality. Still, that just means more for us, and if we can manage to give any future VVV's a brown tinge to the fretboard it means you won't be interested in them!!

Ha ha ha! I posted on that site twice........AND I can't even remember doing it once!!! I'm old!!! Interesting that there is blue paint underneath the purple on the back of the headstock. Maybe it was a primer coat? Who knows. It still looks ok though!saintandsinner wrote:its real,here is the link to the original post on harmony central.I think I bought a red usa jackson strat from this guy several years ago.

Promises made, crying in vain, all empty. Never accepting the blame and not letting go of the shame. A river of tears, as months turn to years, all wasted. On someone not willing to change.Now only a shadow remains!

It is chewing at my fat ass that I cant find the info that someone dug up on the guitar.I must have been the old JC board,But im almost sure that it was not a real jackson.I bought something from this guy and I believe him to be honest.Just dont think he knows what he has and if so that is suprising seeing some of the inventory of jackson he has....
