This is a natural Jackson PC1. But it’s quite a bit different from the others as it has a lace wood body with maple top and a rosewood fingerboard. It also has a wider neck and feels very similar to my Charvel San Dimas. It sounds completely different from the other PC1s. it was nicknamed ‘?’ or The Riddler by Stan Schiller as we couldn’t quite think of name for it. It resides, these days in my bathroom, so it gets played a lot. I always wash my hands.
