Feature:
Jackson JT500 tremelo is the BEST re-designed Floyd Rose Bridge EVER! (so far anyway)
Quality:
Obvious tight manufacturing specs but the bridge was still slapped together. I had to do all the ajustments to it when I got it. No biggy it's nothing new to me. As long as there's metal it will always look good & is still working perfect & holding form after 1yr. 9 mo. & LOTS of use.
Value:
Find out what you want in a guitar and if this has it, I don't think you'll find a better deal on any other guitar even a Custom Shop one.
Desirability:
If your a true shredder you can already see it's got the right look & believe me the sound to match.
Sound:
9 out of 10 on sound cause nothing sounds to good. Overall the Detonator pick-ups are perfect for almost anything and great for metal. With almost no feedback at high volumes without an EQ and plenty of crunch to go around. Good sustain & clarity the 6th string "E" doesn't drown out higher notes when played with it. I Highly recommend these pick-ups for any guitar but lucky for us they come on this beast new already.
Support:
10 I guess I haven't needed any cause I'm not new to these things.
Overall:
I'm sure I'll probably always keep this beast, after 1yr. 9mo. with it, it's still the most playable guitar I got. If I where to replace this guitar it would have to be with another Jackson due to obvious metal mayhem they create. Even though I'm Gibson biased, for metal I'll take a Jackson from here on out. I knew what I wanted in a guitar & this one had all the specs I desired & lived up to them when I got it. (& for $475 WOW) Other brands were considered but for metal music & overall playability this was what I picked out & I'm still happy with it. Pick-ups are very sensitive & great for recording & improving your playing. I wish I would of discovered Jackson guitars 15 yrs. ago, maybe I'd be Jackson biased now. This is my first one so maybe I will be in a few more years. The JT500 tremelo is the best Floyd Rose bridge out there period. You got to do all to bridge set up when you get it but once thats done get ready to rock. Overall 9 out of 10 in this price range cause nothing is a 10 but Damn what a deal, unbelievable. I was looking for alot more expensive one but this had what I wanted for less "so the hell with the others."
