    Just bought one with gold humbucker covers, such a beautiful guitar. It’s currently on its way through mail. I’ve watched your video a handful of times just for eager to shred with her

      The gold hardware off satin black is sick ..
      I'd darken the board & all leave the HB103s.

      As soon as you get it, get rid of the covered pickups. They look horrific on Gibsons. They ABSOLUTELY do not belong on a Jackson. Like fake boobies on a boy.

    If you get one of these, get a 5 way switch and to do coil split in the extra positions and flip the neck pickup upside down! You won't regret it with being able to get some good strat-style cleans after in the added pickup switch positions!

      That's sad because my Pro RR3 came out flawless (and even in tune), despite being made in the same Indonesian factory I believe. I guess it's either luck of the draw or difference in tolerances for Pro vs. the X-series.

      @@anarki_in5680 what's weird lately is, X Series is almost similar price as the Pro Series. I've seen prices on both, and there not far off from price. i think Jackson or whoever is in charge of these ranges needs to get there priorities together. i have an X Series Kelly, and i paid 699 for mine originally, but they quickly jumped up to 899 and 999. a few Pro series i looked at, there's only a 120 difference between them. i like the guitar, but if im being honest, these X Series aren't worth 900, there more like a 500 dollar guitar. there certainly better than the JS Series, but like the JS Series the one thing that holds the X Series back is the trem system and that nut. making it gold doesn't automatically say this is good, but i like how some companies try some slick shit like this, and they get away with it. mine doesn't have this gold, but you can tell they made this gold to say, this is why this guitar cost what it does.
      i know people give Gibson a hard time sometimes, but the one thing we do know about Gibson, that would never fly. my only issue with Gibson is, there quality control can be better, but they been killing it lately with Epiphone.
      i just picked up the Epiphone Les Paul Special in TV Yellow back in January, and it's been good. one of the best Epiphones i played in a long time, the only thing i did with it was, i bought the Gibson version pickups and popped those P90's in the Epiphone and off she went lol. i don't hate Jackson, but no matter the company it doesn't pay to kiss ass or be a brand snob, we're just customers at the end of the day.

      @@Jeymez KVXMG, RRX24(M) and a few other models are still competitive with what ESP LTD’s 400 models offer in the X-series, and I’ve seen people satisfied with what they got on Facebook groups and so forth. It’s a lot of the new crackle models that have Jackson pickups and not brand-name ones which along with the FR special make for pretty mediocre specs for $800-900.

    I'll have to change the Jackson hums with a Seymour Duncan for my death metal album.

    If they put an ebony board, that would have looked so damn much better. ( please people who will argue "uhhh ebony is expensive", no, if Harley Benton can put Ebony fingerboard on their 200€ guitar, there is litteraly no reason for Jackson to not do it too beside just being greedy and wanting to save a few buck on production cost )
