Jackson for 2014

[Don Vito]

My inner 14 year old Alexi Laiho fanboy needs this.

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu ck that

any 1 got CS dosh?

aside from the stickers and EMG pickups, these are exactly like his late 90's/early 00's RRs. edit: the yellow one has an unfinished neck, so there's one major difference

I guess the Phil Collen Kelly is a one off? To bad, would be a good way to get my "photograph" groove on!

(I am showing my age here, I know. )

^^ Those 2 Rhoads models up there have my interests... I'd buy the hell out of both of them.

It is now, but guarantee that people will build a ton of them. They're Custom Select, actually, so relatively "cheap." I think it's a cool ....ing idea and would love to see Phil Collen rocking those instead of the PC-1s.

Someone on the JCF board posted a bunch of concepts that he created a while back, including that exact guitar. Looked killer with the King V!

I'm a little disappointed they didn't release more Soloists, yet. I know they mentioned more would come out as the year progressed, but I can only hold on to my tax returns for so long.

Those Alexi lookalikes need to be production models. Or at least make some production Rhoads that don't have a gillion volume and tone knobs.

You can get an RR24 through the Custom Select program. (3-4 month ETA)

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

Preferably something cheaper, I would think.

 

[Don Vito]

There's the RR24 MIJ, but those are getting harder to come by. They usually have wing chips too(....ing wing chips).

 

[sell2792]

I'm strongly of the impression that they should make an import, or Mexican version of these. They'd sell like crazy. Hell, even make a seven string model. These things are hot.

Here's a video Charvel uploaded with Jake E. Lee:

I usually don't care for graphics on a guitar, but the Medusa themed one is sick

 

[groverj3]

There's a new pro series 7 string Dinky coming this year as well. I'm sure someone's mentioned it before me. I've sort of been on hiatus for a while.

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

Yup. Those were kind of the highlight of the thread.

 

[groverj3]

Ah, I just looked through and didn't see those pics posted. Enjoy!

 

[aneurysm]

I really love the Look and Specs of it, but i wonder about the build Quality?

 

[sell2792]

These things are sexy aswell. Would've been nice to see ebony on the red one though. Hell, if anything they should resurrect the COW, but these are decently close.

i need to get a good jackson! i love my schecter, and it beats the shit out of my charvel '92 avenger and my js32t kelly in terms of sound, build quality and action, but the jackson neck profile is simply perfect! with the compound radius added it is just the nonplusultra for my hands! any reports on the new pro series quality? the MIM ones? or should i rather look out for used MIJ pro series? i sort of don't trust the new factories until i played one. same with the x series, if they're made the same as my js from the same factory, it's not worth getting one for me, but if they're on par with the korean schecters... there are some in the x series which fit me perfectly spec wise...
