"Here's the story behind the biggest, fattest-sounding guitar I've ever played, and one that took 11(!) years to make!"

Man, I just found you and as a Jackson lover since the start of the 80s and having started playing guitar back in 77 I love this. I have always loved these guitars as well. The homy grail of Jacksons. I have a charvel Preditor crackle from 91 with a factory Schaller trem I love and with the reverse headstock which is too cool.
I dig your playing too man.
Do you have a band website where I can listen and buy your music?
What country are you from may I ask? You sound sorta German but can't quite put my finger on the accent. 😂
Regards and stay healthy brother.

thx for sharing that story! 11 years of waiting & searching...thats insane..in a positive way. I'm looking forward to the next episode.
Thanks! Hey, at least it was worth the wait! :) -Ben
Lay it down👍
What a riff ❤️
its about time jackson started up with the firebirds again! the coolest shape in my opinion they put out besided the kelly
Yeah it would be quite something to see a Jackson FB as a production model!
Seething in jealously right now. Been my dream guitar for since I was a kid, also because of Robbin Crosby. I bought a very convincing knockoff that I love, but I'd kill for a real one. Hope one day they start doing production models again, or that one that's been on Reverb forever magically drops a few thousand bucks.
Yeah, the prices of some of the used ones are just insane. A production model FB and Roundhorn V would be really cool to see one day! :)
great guitar
Thanks! Yeah I love it! -Ben
I love that firebird how is the reach to the 20nd frets ???
Hi David! It’s actually not as bad as I thought it was gonna be! Not as effortless as on a Warrior, but way better than on an Explorer! :)
The firebird looks amazing and I guess it's a fantastic guitar to play as well! Just out of curiosity, are you a fan of non recessed floyds too?
Thanks Sergio! Funny you should ask about the non-recessed Floyds: I've NEVER had a guitar with a non-recessed FR, but just two weeks ago a friend brought me one for a long loan, and after playing it for a few days I was sold! So much so, that now playing all my own guitars feels weird! :) So yes, I am a fan nowadays!
@@oceanhoarse9208 it happened to me too, I bought an old RR from a friend and it had the non recessed floyd, I was sold immediately! I love the looks, of course, but I like the angled neck, it's a big help when playing live! Love the video by the way!
