Feature:
I'll give the features a 9 because of couple minor things.. first the 23rd and 24th frets are hard to get to because of the body shape, also you might find it weird on where to put you hand when playing it sitting down.. also the guitar never goes out of tune thanx to the double locking tremolo, but it is really difficult to get it in tune.. it ain't a biggie but, all the rest is perfect...

Quality:
The quality is superb even if it is made in japan.. the guitar is very sturdy.. the transparent finishes are really good.. the tremolo is very good and resistant it's very easy on the strings yet does it's job well.. the 3 way switch is very good too, there are no cutoffs while switching.. and finally the pickups are good..

Value:
I'll give that a 9 cuz 500 $ is quite a bit but in the end no regrets because you will be satisfied, trust me ;)

Desirability:
This guitar is a real chick magnet has a great image while being played.. attracts both guys and girls.. (mostly girls) but if you like what you see in the picture buy it cuz its really great quality.. the body design is what attracts most people.. the finish looks great too, I have eerie dess swirl, (if ya wanna see a picture of this colo just go on google and type it in) just notice that if you but this color the finish on the edges will be purple.. not blue..

Sound:
Ok in this I'll be really honest with everyone... the stock pickups are pretty good on this guitar.. the neck pickup is good for clean crisp sound and the bridge pickup is a pretty good pickup too.. it sounds good on a good amp, it has a metal distorted sound, just don't get put down by reviews saying that the pickups suck..

Support:
I haven't used the support but i have seen it be used.. my friend called jackson to fix his roswell rhodes.. they were right on and very polite, had very good service.

Overall:
I think this guitar is really well made. It sounds great, feels great, and looks great what more could you want? IF YOU LIKE IT BUY IT! IT'S WORTH IT!

Feature:
it has a floyd rose, which is awesome

Quality:
this is an exelent quality guitar

Value:
i think people should sell it for more, it has a very good value

Desirability:
this guitar is the sexiest machine out there transparent blue makes me horny

Sound:
i love how there is only one knob (volume), cause thats less for me to think about, and the sound is awesome for metal, and really good clean with the neck pickup

Overall:
i will be satisfied for the rest of my life, i dont think i will replace it, but i will eventually get another guitar with a hard tail or string-thru-body so i can downtune.

Feature:
Tremelo = great 1 knob = extrememly easy and convienient

Quality:
Finish is beatutiful, everthing was in perfect shape right out of the box. I've bashed this thing around quite a bit and it only has one ding that isn't noticeable.

Value:
GREAT DEAL BUY IT

Desirability:
Extremely sexy...everyone falls in love with it as soon as they see it.

Sound:
Mind boggling heavy...rips everything from Pantera to Megadeath and Metallica. The clean is also amazing, comming in crisp from the bridge pickup and thick and warm from the neck.

Support:
N/A

Overall:
Keep it forever! If it was stolen I'd go out and buy a new one, after I beat the hell outa the guy who stole it

Feature:
Simple knob its all I need

Quality:
Poor finishes like on all jacksons lower priced guitars. All jacksons me or my frioend own easily get chips, dings and cracks from accidemts with screwdrivers, straps, and other guitars. Only minor frusturation with the tremolo but you will get over it quickly if you have never used a floyd double locking before. no problems with hardware or electronics

Value:
Overpriced but worth it

Desirability:
Sexiest guitar on earth especially in trans red or blue. black is nice too

Sound:
Detonater HB10' suck. They come on most new Jacksons. The bridge Humbucker is the only thing that needs replacing and is easy to do. The neck Pu is fine for solos.
