Jackson finally get it right!!
« on: January 19, 2007, 08:44:15 PM »
With their new guitar in the pro series the RR24 Rhoads. I have heard many a metalhead complain of no RR with 24 frets without paying loads, but also it is neck thru with an ebony board and one emg81 pickup!

Sounds nice, can't wait for the pics of it.

I think Randy (whom it was made for, orig. of course) may not be so impressed. Maybe Fender/Jackson had a conflict of taste.

I find it amusing that it's simply a copy of ESP's Alexi Lahio sig, which was a copy of a Jackson in the first place.

The black with red bevels RR24 is the one I want. I've always wanted one, but i'd change the EMG to bareknuckle.

It's about time Jackson done this. There has been so much demand for a 24 fret Rhoads over the years i'm surprised they didn't release one much sooner. I guess they would be silly not to now what with the ESP Laiho

That's a pretty sweeping statement.   :?   I guess Leo Fender had it all wrong.

Slight deviation of topic regarding the RR models,

Iv'e always wondered what the access like to the top most frets as the body is angling away from the neck ?

I don't normally like very pointy or Sig models, but even I found this one attractive in a strange way http://www.fullersguitar.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=16&products_id=191 theres some jacksons on the site that even I appreciate.

Further off topic:

Joe: The low end peavey Wolfgang is an excellent little guitar, but I have never come across one where the frets where properly finished (have played 8 or 9 of them). The necks are excellent (especially for the money) and asymetrical. Theyre way better than the OLP range, just spend a little money on getting the fretwork tidied and the edges of the fingerboard rounded a little.

anyway End of diversion.

It was a joke, people. Lighten up!
Or should I just write "LOL" "J/K" or PDT_008 so people will know when I'm being sarcastic?!
