(see rating details)
i will play until i feel like i want a new guitar, but not atm. maybe after a few years
Sound
yea i like the sound, it gives u a crunchy tone and the other kinda like a jazzy tone, i really like it! But im planning (near future) to change them to EMG 81 (just the rear pickup, or bridge) but right now, it satisfies me, i have a temporary yamaha amp (i use it cuz i travel alot, wont get a biggie until my family settles down), i run it thru my digitech alternate effects model RP90, set some kickass tone , i love it. But the p/up kinda hums alil bit but, who cares?:D
Features
Floyd rose tremolo, easy to do divebombs, harmonics etc. i had to configure the tremolo bars springs tho, it wasnt floating. Its a pain in the ass trying to restring, i almost threw the guitar lol
Ease of Use
slender neck and slim, i have a fender and its more easier to shred on this jackson, the fender had a fat neck. even tho i dont prefer jumbo frets, its still easier to shred
Quality
quality is the best! i havent had any problems since i bought it (like the loose vol knob)
Value
it was worth it, a lil bit expensive for my currency (not livin in the US), itw as my first guitar, really worth it (fender was my bros)
Manufacturer Support
didnt need support, why need one?:P
The Wow Factor
hoaah, mine came with the sexy cobalt blue and black swirls, its so hot! not to mention its metallic! shiny*_*
