Never owned a Jackson before; guess I know what my next guitar might be.

Those signature Blackouts sound beastly. Definitely a phenomenal guitar

Mick Thomson often uses on stage his Indonesia SL2

I’m excited now, . I got this guitar coming

[doedesjel]

I might be fooling my own eyes with this but i think he also developed a different angle for the headstock. It doesn't quite look like the regular jackson headstock. It's more like a Fender angle. It looks really straight

Great Video man, keep it up! so much time and effort into a nice review, I respect that.

I'm quite surprised you found the neck on that guitar thick. I've tried 2 of these, and found the neck much thinner that other guitars I've tried before. Then again, I don't think I've played a truly Wizardy neck, and I still love the feel of the Mick Thomson Soloist neck regardless. Also, I like the gloss. Nice video :).

[govenerz]

Just orderd mine yesterday! Do you have that video of mick anywhere, thanks

[darkfernando]

Now I know the next guitar I'll have, ty for the review bud!!!!

[SlaydPieces]

He released these in 2016 if I remember, I love my Darth Vader, About to throw down with a storm trooper like what you’ve showed us. Awesome video bro 👌

Funny.... I do not see the "SEVEN" on the side of my P/U's. The gloss neck at least with mine is super slick and a relatively thin style Jackson neck. I do have a few Ibanez guitars, the RGR I have has a "SuperWizard" 5-piece neck.. Not that thin but close. I got mine march 2019... I want the SEVEN on the P/U's lol.. Great Vid!

[dannydrinkwine]

My pickups don’t say seven? Wtf? I have the same exact guitar

[tylertjaden]

if i wanted to could i play it in E or is the neck to thin?

[trevorbaker]

At first I heard "Mick Thomson is usually playing his guitar around E Standard" 😂

[Inkslinger]

Does anyone know if the term allows you to go up in pitch by pulling back as well as down? Never had any experience of a locking trem without springs, is it flat to the guitar?

[mauriciosalinas]

Awesome video, you look like Per Yngve Ohlin aka "Dead"

[Alexander-uubt]

I really love the specs, Mick is not stupid guy. Is it possible to easily switch it to standard tuning for instance or the locking nut is completely modified only for .011-.056 gauges? How is the action on this guitar?Same question about the pick ups, I wonder if they are only for such extreme low tuning, almost bass guitar.

[niocitB]

The very best Metal-Guitar for low budget you can get ever (Indonesia-Version!)

[dinoaddin]

Is it advisable to play it on drop d on this guitar?

[ciaranc]

Asoon as they realease a white carbon fibre one I'm buying .
