| Five years ago, on this date, I took a little trip to Lebanon, Tennessee to the Jackson Steel Guitar Company to see if I could find a great new Jackson Steel. I walked into the little shop behind Harry Jackson's house and David and Harry had set up a few steels-there was a Jackson Blackjack, a Jackson Blackjack Custom, a Jackson Ultra Lite, and a Shot Jackson Commemorative model. I first sat down behind the Blackjack Custom, and played a few licks of San Antonio Rose, then they put the Blackjack in front of me, and I loved it, then they put the Commemorative model in front of me and I liked it. David and Harry asked me which guitar I liked best, and I said, "Definitely the Blackjack Custom and then they both smiled. I bought the Blackjack Custom I first sat behind and it's one amazing guitar! "Black Diamond" has now been with me for five wonderful years! |
