It is based on a Jackson Warrior, that's what Dan use also, but his Jackson have seen hell and needed to be restored, Mauro did that job also, but then he wanted a new guitar and for about the same amount of money he could get something that was personalized, amazingly built with a unique tone, that is why he didnt want paint on it only a stain with mat lacquer, that way he gets the full sound of the wood. The interesting thing about guitar built that way is with age the guitar just gets better, like my 5 string for example, it was built in 89 and today the tone is much more pronounced than when it was built, the wood got dryer I suppose but also I played a lot with it, and playing makes a huge difference with an instrument, it sort of gives it a life. I think this was the 455th guitar he built. My bass was the 113th.

Ah, there they are...didn't pay attention to the buttons near the top of the screen. The headstock screams "Jackson", until you look closer & see "Liberatore". Floyd Rose tuning, I see... hmmm...Is there a way we can convince Liberatore to make more guitars? Blacky, et. al. could make some extra $$$ by desigining the instruments; if Liberatore doesn't have enough production capacity, they should license the designs to some bigger company - hey, Epiphone is making Les Pauls these days, right? Sigh...I can dream, can't I? -------------------- My head explodes, my ears ring, I can't remember just where I've been.
