Finally a Jackson with Stainless Steel Frets. This guitar ticks all of the metal boxes. I would only take out the tone pot and move that volume away from near the bridge pickup. Then place a killswitch button where the volume was. Expensive? Yes! Expected? Also Yes!

anything "modern" near the 2k mark should have stainless. if it's "vintage" i guess you can argue they can be nickle, but anything that expensive not pretending to be vintage needs stainless.

@@mariek6993 I totally agree. Any pro series or above from Jackson always disappointed me about having nickel frets. I was about to buys a Pro Series at one point but hesitated until I heard back from Jackson that the fret were nickel. I took it right out of the cart.

Jackson and Charvel brands, now in the hands of Fender, are getting better and better and better. Very good axe! EMG...for those hatters...Try those in real scenario and forget names and if it is active or passive. Just try and play well. These pickups are a part of music history. Enjoy!

I've ALWAYS loved the SL2H's...not familiar with the MG -
