Re: what do you think about this one ?
There's the Demmelition with the cutouts too...
--------o--------
My take on it is, everybody will tell you something ranging from "that guitar is GC poser material" to "whatever works for you" to "hell yeah that's br00tal man!". The second one is the better advice IMO.
Considering there's no similarly spec'ed Jackson at that price range your only choice is a KV5FR like that one or look around for a Japanese market only Jackson (They're not called Stars anymore). Problem is, if you go shopping on Ishibashi or Ikebe with shipping and what not you might end up paying too much. Have you looked around and see if you can get a used USA Select King V?

Re: what do you think about this one ?
I have the Rhoads in that series and once again I hear ****ing stupidity coming (once again) from one poster's high horse when it comes to pointy guitars.
I would suggest waiting a little longer and picking up a used KV1. If you go through MF you might find some good deals and their Used pieces usually have pictures so you can see the condition of that model. Plus it would hold it's value better.
For me, I didn't like the Jazz/JB combo on mine, but other than that they are damned good guitars. As I play similar music I prefer the Maple/Alder combination as it is brighter and has more mid presence. Even with the JB in the bridge I'm still nailing tones of bands like Exodus. My only beef with Jackson's nowadays is the 10-16 compound radius fretboards ... I wish they when back to 16" for the whole thing.

ESP isn't bad, I just like Jackson necks and designs a tad better. Alexi Laiho from Children of Bodom uses ESP guitars, and he... to put it lightly... is a metal GOD.
What model of Livewires come in that Dave Mustaine guitar?

Eh.. I guess I've never really sat down to figure out what albums he used Jackson guitars on.
Too bad I'll never be able to get that tone on my Line 6 POD XT
LOL

Blackout or Blackout Metal?
I have a Blackout Metal in the bridge of my Jackson SLSMG, and a Livewire Classic II in the neck. Talk about br00tal as TC put it above. Absolutely whips the stock EMG 81/85 set and sends them to bed without dinner.

Re: what do you think about this one ?
Nah...he started using ESP back in '03-ish...so if anything when they were touring for HCD until now. EMGs all around until the time he started working on Bloodrunk, around then he switched to standard Blackouts, then went back to EMG shortly afterwards.
Wait a second...I'm reading what you posted and I'm not quite getting what you're saying. Are You Dead Yet came before Bloodrunk, not after.
Whatever :lol:. If you're still into the idea of a used Jackson, the KV2T doesn't have a vibrato unit equipped, and it's a USA Select model.
