“I’m back in love with the Floyd Rose, it’s incredible. I’m back in whammy-bar nerd heaven with this thing. It’s awesome. This thing stays in tune so well. I can seriously throw it into the fucking wall and it will be in tune. It is honestly the most effective guitar I’ve ever had. It is just incredible.” – Jake Kiley on his custom Jackson Soloist.
