gotomsdos Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm curious. Found Jackson Browne plays a guitar like a Gibson J-35 blonde, but with different inlay in fretboard, as follows: What brand and model is it ? youtube: picture: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:JacksonBrowne3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danner Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 It's a McAlister. Here's a Linky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotomsdos Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 It's a McAlister. Here's a Linky Wow ! Thank you Danner ! It was baseed on Gibson Roy Smeck. What a coincidence that Roy McAlister reproduces Roy Smeck ! haha And more, I read there is also Jackson Browne's signature Gibson model based on Gibson Roy Smeck under the suggestion by him. what model is it ? Prior to this, I know there has been a Jackson Browne's signature model J-45. Right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jt Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Jackson's McAlister is a nice guitar. I played it (and another 20 of his guitars) while on the road with him while writing my Fretboard Journal profile of him. The McAlister is a baritone guitar.

jdd707 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Did y'all see the latest issue of Roling Stone Mag in which Jackson was playing what appeared to be a Roy Smeck in natural .... It looked so nice that I couldn't tell if it was a period original (I know he is a collector of such, the Gibson Jackson Brown being modeled on the Smeck) or if it was a reissue. Any idea?

That's his 1990s reissue Roy Smeck Radio Grande, which I also played and which also is a nice guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livemusic Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 That guitar doesn't sound like a baritone. He has capo on fret 2. Sounds great, whatever it is. He has such amazing tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll ask him whether he has 2 McAlisters. The one I played and that he had on tour was definitely a baritone. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
