Feature:
If it had a tremelo it would be even better

Quality:
The finish is very pretty. I did have a little problem, the pot died out, but i went to the local guitar store and jackson paid for it. Unfortunately i had to pay a service charge of 18 dollars, but it is in the best working condition ever

Value:
Worth plenty more than i paid for it. Definitely buy this over an ESP/LTD for the same price. I bought this guitar over the EC-1000 because i thought that it played better.

Desirability:
Sexiest guitar i own. One of my favorites that i have ever played. I WOULD BUY THIS OVER ANY GIBSON LP, ANY ESP, OR ANY FENDER. Not only is it really cheap and has beautiful sound and a fine finish... ITS 300 dollars.... and i would rather play this than a Gibson Black Beauty!

Sound:
This is the greatest guitar possible for 300$

Support:
When i called Jackson/Fender with my problem, they said no problem, and that i would get it fixed for free.

Overall:
This is my baby. I mean, im going to buy the next couple of versions up... perhaps the USA RR or something because i want the tremelo, but this guitar has allowed me to become a tremendous soloist because of its EASY to reach higher frets ( i mean, i can bend number 24 and i can even give it some major vibrato if i want to ). Overall, i would like to buy another one just to have it in red. Maybe the Black too. You should BUY one if you have 300$

Feature:
The only thing I would want more is independent volume controls but other than that, everything is fine.

Quality:
It's not a top of the line guitar but it is better than a lot of more expensive ones. Jackson makes nice guitars but I've played the RR5 and it wasn't as good as this one, in my opinion. The bolt on neck doesn't take away anyting, still plays great! I know this is one guitar I will never even consider selling this guitar.

Value:
You can't get a better guitar for this price. I would have paid more for it if it was more expensive.

Desirability:
It's got great looks and the blue finish is really awesome. It shines when I'm playing on stage.

Sound:
The sound is full. Just because it's an inexpensive guitar doesn't mean it's poor quality. The pickups get the sound I want which was really unexpected.

Ease of Use:
I considered changing the pickups but decided not to. It may be weird sitting down but I have 5 other guitars to play if I really want to sit which I don't. Not at all heavy which for most people is good but it would be nice a couple pounds heavier. Fast neck, great access to all the frets(I love having 24!!!)

Support:
I haven't had any problems so that's really good.

Overall:
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this guitar once you get used to it. At first the neck was too thin for me because I have large hands but now it's really great. I pick it up to play for a few minutes then the next thing I know it's been two hours. I wouldn't trade it for any guitar.

Quality:
the finish on this guitar is great. its very clean.. and its a very well built guitar... i havent dropped mine but i know it could take a hit and still look as perfect as it did before

Value:

Sound:
the sound is very clean and crisp.. i have a crate amp and a ds-1 pedal and it sounds terrific

Quality:
This "randy" is one of the best ones, I own a RR5 and I play it for my shows for the beginning sets, then i switch to the JS30RR..its a really great guitar nothing with it.

Ease of Use:
listen all you people who say its hard to play with this "randy" sitting down, if you haven't figured by now, you can prop the guitar with your leg, just put the lower half of the body between your legs....its really simple..this guitar overall is the best for a cheap price.

Feature:
the featers were simple: a volumen and tone knove and a switch

Quality:
the finish was great , it looks durable (if u are not dummie to leave it on the wall duuu), and it looks killer!

Value:
this monster gives a hell of a run for the money on other expensive guitars (i like this one better than a epiphone LP st.)

Desirability:
in one month i will have the money to buy the guitar yay!

Sound:
Its amazing!!! i dint belived that it will live up to my expectations!!! but it did,and it never buzzed, this must be the best 300dl guitar ,seriusly , i used it with a 75 watt line 6 amp (pretty cool amp by the way and cheap) and all the features that i used leave me speachless, it can get a very ligth distortion to a insane metal distortion like metallica, children of tha bodom, megadeth etc..not for the faint of hart!!! also the clean is goood but not great, but overall its sound is fantastic and for the price, its the best out there.

Ease of Use:
its very easy to play wether it is siting or standing up with a strap. And the neck is thin soo this is a must for shreders!!! i could play stratovarious very easy on this neck

Overall:
like i said, its the best 300dl guitar

I personally love the shape of it. The bad thing about it is when you try to sit down and play it, It's really hard, It's even harder when you plug it in.

Quality:
I raelly like jackson guitars how the neck is and the playability.

Value:
It's definitely worth some money but yeah tiz cool

Desirability:
It looks really hot plus the god of guitar playing has the same.

Sound:
It sound's really good, the Jackson signature pickups are also very nice.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Feature:
Pretty basic features. 1 vol 1 tone, 3 way switch. I prefer the Tune-O-Matic bridge over a tremolo bridge, hence why I bought this.

Quality:
Its a cheap guitar but its good quality. The only problem I've had is buzz from the low-E string.

Value:
Definately worth the price. I prefer this guitar over my $750 DK2

Desirability:
Its a Rhoads, need I say more?

Sound:
This guitar has great sound for its price range. The stock pickups work nicely, but I plan on switching to SD 59/JB's

Ease of Use:
Very easy to use. I love the style of this guitar. Standing up you'll need to support the neck since its a bit heavy, and for sitting you just rest the bottom wing on your thigh.

Support:
Haven't had to use it, but I know its great.

Overall:
I'll be using and upgrading this thing till its unusable. If it was stolen I would buy it again or a Schecter V
