Product Review This guitar is great, like all jackson guitars it has an incredibly comfortable neck and plays great. Because of the design you either need to play this guitar standing up with a strap or kind of put your leg in the middle of the two spikes to hold it up, thats the only downside. It actually looks better in person than in the pictures. Ive had it for about a week and it surpassed my expectations.

Product Review This thing shreds! Right out of the box it was damn near perfect. Aside from a little spring adjustment since I tune to C#, the action is killer! Even after dropping to C# the intone was still great! I play some heavy stuff and this beast is totally up to the task! Mine of course is the white with black pinstripes after the God himself, Randy Rhoads! Couldn't be more happy! Just gotta get another stand now! And get used to a 6 string again being as my other two are Ibanez 7 strings!!!

Product Review Very well made instrument for it's price range. Excellent fret work. Stays in tune and sustain is great. Funny thing about this guitar even though it's made for metal, the clean tones are exceptionally good. Very happy with it.

A Sweet Guitar with a Killer Look!

Product Review Upon realizing that I did not have a guitar with a whammy bar among my collection, I set out to find one that fit my personality... and landed on this one. The Cons: When my guitar arrived, BRAND NEW from AMS, it was broken. Even with the packaging fully intact, a tuning peg had been snapped clean off. A sticker on the outer box informed me that it had been placed on the bottom corner of a pallet. Having had many perfect deliveries from AMS in the past, I let it slide. I took it to my local guitar repair guy, who fixed the issue within ten minutes. However, upon further inspection, he informed me that there was also a short in the electronics due to something having pushed a knob in hard enough that it moved a wire up against the shielded coating in the electronics cavity. This too was quickly fixed, due to the repair guy's experience and knowledge. Had I not had to bring it in for the damaged tuning peg, I still would have had issues! Not cool, especially since this was my first forray into Jackson guitars (until now, I have been exclusively ESP, Schecter, and Ibanez). I had already been on the fence about trying a new company, especially with a $700 price tag. The only other "complaint" I have is that with such bold, crazy angles... I had to go out and buy a special guitar stand, as well as a special case (a large bass case worked). The Pros: With my guitar now fixed, it plays AWESOME! The neck is perfect for executing some serious riffage. I got mine in the glossy black, and combined with the reverse headstock, the Randy Rhodes body, and the all black hardware, this thing looks evil! I love it! It also sounds great too. Definitely happy with it!

My Jackson X Series Rhoads RRX24 Electric Guitar is amazing!

Product Review I actually bought the red with black bevels and when it arrived the packaging was excellent! Very well protected and that’s exactly what I was expecting from AMS! My Jackson is beautiful! After I unwrapped it kinda felt like it was Christmas or my birthday! Perfectly in tune but probably because of the weather my neck needed some adjustments. I play in the key of C so I have it set up for me by my local guitar tech anyway he adjusted the neck and presto! Amazing guitar! Especially for the price! She plays beautifully! I rock hard and my Floyd Rose is just what I expected. It’s not the Floyd Rose Pro that I’m accustomed to but it can definitely handle my dive bombs and pull ups! Stays in tune like it should. The color is awesome too. Not a scratch on it! The reverse headstock is super cool. I really appreciate AMS for making it possible for us hard working individuals to afford this work of art with their no interest payment plan. Play as we pay. Love it! Thanks AMS! You and this sweet instrument have my seal of approval! My band Vision Red says thank you as well! Really adds to my presence on stage! I’ll definitely be ordering my musical needs from AMS from now on!

Product Review As soon as I picked it up I knew it was a quality instrument. From the finish to the build quality and playability and graphite reinforced neck. Seymour Duncan blackouts for power serious dynamic metal tone. It comes in many different finishes but I chose black and I mean black. Black finish black inlays black Jackson logo. For under a grand there's no better guitar if you're into hard rock or metal

Product Review Great tone and great feel I've been a Jackson player since way back in the day and always played dinkys. The Randy Roads plays like a dream and more, just a little setup for my feel and I was good to go.

Product Review This thing is great i own a RR3 bolt on neck with a mirror pickguard and detonator pickups and absolutly love it. Then this came i the mail and i feel like im cheating on it. The xseries is f#### awesome. The reverse headstock is sweet but not a big deal the fretboard though is slightly curved like the fenders so ot makes soloing sweeps hammers and pull etc etc much easier you dont have to do much work to find the notes...as if you just think it and your hand does it with little effort. Thats a big plus on my end, did i mention the active pickups scream bloody murder...yes, bloody murder, and best of all its carved outta one piece of wood. Need i say more, arrived flawlessly and the action was already set for speed picking i mean no biggy just lower the action right but with this fret board curved like i mention active pickups i mean its a dream come true. The only bad is that it didnt come with a pickguard like my RR3 but this is a guutar of guitars if you ask me. With the right amp to run it thru im sure all wpuld be happy with it as well. Hope this helps, shred on

Product Review I am completely satisfied with this nail biting, bone crushing, axe. The sound and tone are brilliant and I couldn't be happier with how well it plays. Clean - Check, Tone - Check, Looks - Check! I can play any type of music with this but where it really shines is on cranking riff that makes your knees buckle with extreme pleasure. I got the neon green and I have had so many compliments on the aesthetics and how well it comes through live. If you haven't ever purchased a "Randy Rhoads" guitar this is the one to get. Not cheap and not overly expensive. It falls in that "just right" category. I love my RRX24 and it will be one that I share stories with my kids about as I hand it off proudly to my son so that he may carry on the tradition of riding on a "Crazy Train" ! Thank you American Musical and Jackson for one of the finest guitars I now call mine.

Product Review I love this guitar, absolutely awesome. The black outs sound amazing, the neck shreds, the floyd stays in tune, neck was straight, all frets smooth, I lay and finish work looked phenomenal. This guitars quality is almost on par with my $1600 MIj Ibanez. Absolutely no complaints, and will definitely make my next purchase from AMS phenomenal customer service.

Product Review AMS is the best company to go to for any equipment, I’ve always eyeballed the Jackson V guitars and I was finally able to get one on a payment plan. This guitar plays and sounds amazing. And looks even cooler!! I haven’t had a single problem with this guitar at all. Thanks AMS

Product Review I rate this 5 stars because you can’t give it a 4.5 . A pure 5 should honestly be reserved for the premium . That being said if it I were only grading based upon guitars in the sub 1000$ range then I would give this a 5 . The looks are great , it “plays itself “ I tell people. The Floyd Rose works great and it stays in tune . I also really enjoy the Seymour Duncan blackout pick ups . Alas my truckster is to my riff , as the rrx24 is to my shred , happy journeys my friends , may the force be with you , you won’t be disappointed!

Product Review I was a little skeptical to purchase my husband a guitar and have it shipped because of the way I have received less expensive items damaged. I can assure you your guitar will arrive is perfect condition. I was super impressed with their customer service as the first one I ordered was on back ordered, they quickly and promptly helped me cancel that order to get this one. The whole process was so easy and painless and my husband is in love! The guitar is stunning and it plays amazing. My husband doesn’t want to put it down! I definitely would recommend this guitar and kudos to American musical supply for being awesome at what they do.

Product Review This guitar sounds and plays as good as all my USA made guitars that cost double or triple this price, the blackout picks ups may even be better then my EMG’s , I read that the neck is fat in a review , well he is correct the neck is fat compared to the King V and soloist guitars but still playable I would rather the smaller neck but oh well , great guitar and great price.

Product Review This is my 4th Jackson "V" and I have to say that I am impressed with this guitar, neck through, feel and tremolo stays in tune and I play hard. What I would like to see from Jackson is more of floyd system, otherwise like I had mentioned great value. Thank you AMS!

Product Review Plain and simple...it's a great guitar. Only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars is the need for a setup out of the box. What guitar usually doesn't? Despite that, it played really well. That certainly speaks to the quality. The sound was killer through my Line 6. This is the first V/Sharkfin style guitar iv'e ever played/owned. Surprisingly comfortable to play, especially when sitting. For me, the angle works. AMS doesn't sell the case for it currently, so i have to look elsewhere. The Jackson V case they sell will not fit this model. Always loved Randy's, so i finally got one after all these years. Worth the wait!

Product Review Over impressions is the 2017 RRX24 black/yellow is a great guitar for the money. Neck through design, active pick ups, reverse head stock this guitar has nice features for the price. My only real complaint is I'm not to high on the yellow bevels and wish jackson would make this same guitar but in gloss black. Easy fix as I have already had mine professionally repainted and is nolonger a issue. The active Duncan's it comes with are real nice, however I still give emg's 81/85 a better rating for my taste and style and since have installed in place of the duncans from a parts guitar I had extra. After some simple string height and pick up adjustments it sounds great having nice sustain and a fast neck. For the money and features you can't beat it, the changes I made were simply preference to my ears and eyes and by no means reflect on quality/sound and attention to detail. I've had several people already ask did I have to replace pot, wiring to install the emg's, for those who might wonder this and think they might want to do this both the emg's and blackouts both have a 3 pronged connector. Simple remove the trim rings and blackouts and reconnect existing wiring to you're emg's and that's it. Hope this helps

Product Review I ordered it as soon as I saw the Jackson Winter Naam Video. I Like everything about this guitar other than I wished they would have used the Original Floyd Rose over the Floyd Rose Special. My one complaint is that I ordered the Jackson V Series Case for RR to protect my guitar only to find out the guitar is to big to fit into the case.
