I added a oversize brass trem block which adds mids and helps counter torque “neck dive”. I also changed the Jazz to a 59 -but its really a tossup between them. Finally after almost 15yrs of playing I had the frets redone on a PLEK machine and the nut was moved to use the Buzzy Feiten tuning system.

I'm sure playing and touring in Arch Enemy is good money and publicity for Jeff, and I'm happy to see him continually successful with his music career (dude deserves it), but that band has not aged well for me. Loved them in high school, but have rarely revisited them in more than a decade. I'm not usually one to drop music I have nostalgia for either. Nevermore, however, is timeless. Still can't get enough of all those old records ('Politics' through 'Godless' in particular). I'd love to see him start writing for a band of his own design again, but it'd be tough finding a singer as perfect for his style as Warrel was.
@jamesburke34134 жыл бұрын
Great points. Nevermore was great. Too bad Warrel Dane died (although that doesn't necessarily mean that the band couldn't be resurrected with a new lead vocalist) . I thought his joining Arch Enemy was cool, but you made a good point when you said Arch Enemy hasn't aged well. I started listening to them during the Angela Gossow era, and while Wages of Sin, Anthems of Rebellion, Doomsday Machine, and Rise of the Tyrant were cool albums I found that I preferred the songs they did when Johann Liiva (sorry if I misspelled his name) was lead vocalist such as Stigmata, Burning Bridges, and Black Earth. It seems like Arch Enemy streamlined their sound (perhaps too much) during Angela Gossow's stint in the band. The last album of theirs that I got was Kaos Legions and it was a trifle underwhelming.
@finnishforestparty62934 жыл бұрын
Great point (I personally never really was a fan of Arch Enemy because they didnt bring nothing creative from my point of view), but keep in mind that huge part of Nevermore was Warrel, they both were fuel behind the music, i think it is just the way it is, Jeff just moves forward.

It is all about money and endorsement. Jeff said almost the same about Schecter...it was the greatest and best guitar and best brand.....blabla...and now it is Jackson...and then it will be... But nothing against Jeff, which is my all time favorite guitar player...this is something in general almost all are doing...because, at the end everyone needs money to live and if a company is telling you „Hey I give you money if you use my product and say nice things about it“ almost everyone will do it. It‘s just...not really honest doing paid reviews. Not many are really critical...because if you say something wrong, you obviously wont get money. However, I truly believe that this is an awesome guitar and Jeff is very happy with it.

I'm curious if they ever worked out a solution to solve the neck dive problems Kellys had/have. I know my old Kelly was a pain in my ass with neck dive. Loved the guitar, and it was something that could be worked around, but I vividly remember that being one of two complaints I had with that guitar. Only reason I traded it off was due to the case for it being so massive that it made it a pain to travel with for gigs and whatnot, so I decided to just start playing super strat/strat style body guitars to eliminate travel issues. Still play Jackson and Charvel almost exclusively to this day. Hands down my favorite guitars out on the normal market. I agree with what Jeff (also my name) said, when I think of metal guitars I think Jackson!

When I first saw this, I was blown away by the looks of it and I was sure that I was going to buy one. This is one of the best looking metal guitars ever, no doubt. But then I read the specifications and I thought it has to be a joke. No stainless steel frets, a basswood body, not even a gig bag for almost 1500 Euros. Really, Jackson?!?! I own a Schecter JL-7 made of swamp ash, with FR and stainless steel frets and I remember paying 1200 Euros for it. I love Jackson guitars, but this is just pure greed.
