A while back, in the "Prettiest guitar in the World" thread, I made some blatantly...mean.....remarks about the look of Akira's guitar, which I believe is a Jackson Soloist. I would like to take this opportunity to publicly apologize to Akira's guitar.But only because he's making me.

You have a fine shape, and a lovely paint job. If all guitars were like you, the world would be a far better place.I still don't like your guitar, Akira. Sorry.

Just look at the sheer beauty of it!

Barf!

Well, I hope this was an adequate apology. I love you, Akira's guitar.I really don't.

I think I'll have to concur. I've never really been much for those kinds of paint jobs, but that one does it for me.

yeah, I'm not much for the paintjob, but I must admit it seems like a fine axe aside from that. Well, I don't care for the Jackson headstock either. But it looks expensive :D

exactly, its all about preferance. I personally love ibanez and jackson guitars..

bad ass guitar man.

mine is a 90 :D
