PRESS RELEASE

Flame Maple Tops Available with Jackson's MG Series

January 17, 2002

Jackson Guitars (AMIC) announced that the MG Series is now available with flamed maple tops. The MG Series has Jackson exclusive EMG HZ pickups made specifically for Jackson guitars with non-exposed pole pieces for a cleaner, cooler look than the normal EMG HZ pickups as well as a new 20db variable boost called the EMG TurboCharger.

"This series has been one of our most popular over the past few months and we wanted to give the line a little more flash. By adding the flamed maple tops to all of them except the DXMG (which is still only available in black, medium black or dark black) it's made a very cool instrument even better," Says Kevin Easton of Jackson Guitars. " We also added another color you couldn't get from us for years, Transparent Black. The color just fits with the attitude of the guitars. They're also available in trans red, trans blue, trans green and trans amber."

The list price/MSRP of the Jackson Guitars MG Series is: $649.00 to $849.00 for solid colors and $849.00 to $899.00 for transparent finishes
