I slightly prefer the dark camo on the one Mark has. Trust me, I've been eyeing the Concept Rhoads since it was releasedYou can buy the Cammo Rhoads 7 already as part of the Concept Series, which *is* MIK:

The wood camo, hoping they finally go SS on the fret wire with all the new pro series getting the treatment. Can't wait to see these hit shelvesI slightly prefer the dark camo on the one Mark has. Trust me, I've been eyeing the Concept Rhoads since it was released
I’ve had my eye on those, too. And the Mark H. Black and gold one. But I have a couple 7 string Vs, so I really don’t need more. But I’ll be damned if those aren’t two of the sexiest 7 strings on the market now.I slightly prefer the dark camo on the one Mark has.

I guess they don’t dye the ebony boards anymore in this 2k price range? The old SL27 had evenly dyed black boards.
I noticed this trend with LTDs and EIIs in the same price range.

The industry needs to hurry up and adopt Richlite asap.
I'm pretty sure the reason is that it's more expensive.Yeah, I understand people not wanting it on historically accurate Gibsons and stuff, but there's no reason not to use it on everything else.

Cheap bodies, cheap hardware but really good necks which is the main contact point so I feel like that makes up for the other shortcomings.Question for the Jacksophiles or those who may have the info: How are the JS series guitars you've played?
My more recent playing experiences with the lower import Jacksons has been pretty bad, but I haven't played any of these. I want a V to experiment with, and the JS32 Rhoads looks like one of cheapest and most immediately available options.
I wouldn't be expecting greatness, but I would rather skip it if the guitar won't be more than simply functional. "Good for what it is" or slightly above average would be nice.

I'm more tempted by the Virtuoso, but either way, pickups are easily changed.I'm glad I'm not an EMG guy or I'd be severely tempted.
