"Best V under $1000 ever!!!"

Feature:
I miss having 24 frets. You get used to it after a while though. Surprisingly, the bolt-on neck has pretty good sustain.

Quality:
Jacksons are simply the best. The tuners are really good. I've only had to tune it twice in the month I've had it.

Value:
This is worth it. I'd pay $700 for the quality of this guitar. Luckily, I got mine for less.

Desirability:
Vs are just plain cool. The gold hardware looks outstanding and isn't that cheapie stuff that flakes off. The gold pinstripes add a nice little effect to the appeal too.

Sound:
The sound is phenominal. This is as close as getting a $1000 guitar as you could get for under $500 (got mine for $400). The bidge PU is amazing for distortion and the neck PU can put out some really good clean tunes...if you really want to play this like that.

Ease of Use:
The neck is super fast! The rosewood feels almost silky like ebony but for much less cost. The action came super low when I got it.

Support:
Can't really say. I haven't needed it because this guitar is so cool!

Overall:
This is one of the best guitars I've ever played. The only guitars that were better cost around $1500-$2000 and I'm not really rich. If someon ever stole this, they would be hunted down and tortured to death. This guitar is that awesome.

"Cheap Gold!"

Feature:
To me the best part of this guitar is the shape,cause ive always loved the V shaped body style but the only thing that i didnt like was that it had no floyd but hey,thats why we got or fingers.

Quality:
This guitar is very well put together i couldnt find one thing i didnt like abut it except no floyd rose,and i think with me it will survive many years to come.

Value:
As i said before this is a very great guitar for the price and if you have the money to bye it you should but dont listen to me,go check it out for yourself.

Desirability:
I just cant resist NOT PLAYIN IT ALL THE TIME !!!!!cause it is a very sexxy guitar.

Sound:
Too start of with i cant beleave how bad a$% this guitar is and at the same time can be soo afordable!I t sounds very good for the price,it is probaly the cheapest,best sounding guitar i have ever seen and or herd!!!

Ease of Use:
If you have the right amp and pedals this guitar is like heaven.It works very well with big amps like Marshals which is why i couldnt beleave the price on it,cause i would gie atleast one grand for it.It is a very playable guitar and is in my opinion great for all ages.

Support:
havent needed them

Overall:
I hope this guitar last me the rest of my life and I know everyone says this,but if it got stolen i would track them down and beat the piss out of them.I own a lot of guitars but this is by far one of the best.

About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
The Jackson RR3 has it roots in the very early days at Jackson, when the late, great Randy Rhoads approached them with a idea based on the classic "V" design. Together they created a whole new rock & roll icon. This custom version features Gold pinstripes and Gold hardware, Alder body, Seymour Duncan Designed humbuckers, 25.5 inch scale bolt-on Maple neck and a Rosewood fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets. Its also equipped with a rock solid string thru bridge.

Jackson Guitars
A Jackson guitar is meant to be played, and played hard. Each of their endorsers and players choose Jackson because they know Jackson builds their instruments just how they want them. Jackson's instruments are built to handle hard lives on the road, and are ready to take whatever players will throw at them - that's the just the way it is, and Jackson won't have it any other way.
