All user reviews for the Jackson JS Randy Rhoads JS30RR

Everything has been said before. We retain the essential:
- The form RR
- 24 cases
- No Floyd
- Handle very fast

UTILIZATION

Handle it like it or not. Lovers of good big metal will appreciate.
Access to acute is not a problem.
The weak point may lie in the shape of the guitar and the position of the jack (But who is it that I was fucking there!) That makes the game sitting very uncomfortable, it will therefore focus on standing .

SOUNDS

The sound is clearly typed metal, sharp or heavy distortion according greasy taste.
Clean sound is very average against and will be used only very occasionally.

I then changed the pickups and electronics to put an EMG 81 in the bridge and a 85 in the neck, sending it wood! The sound becomes much more accurate and artificial harmonics out now all alone.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 7 years now.
The guitar requires a little maintenance as they age. Electronics has been redone in favor of active. Soon he will consider changing the mechanical begin to tire.
But if regular maintenance is done, this guitar will give you satisfaction in terms of big sound.

Made of indonsie ... 24 frets
Pickups: 2 Humbucker CVR2 Jackson. (Its pretty mtal)
Fixed bridge.
3 knobs (1 volume, 2 tone) and a 3-position selector.
Bolt.

UTILIZATION

Channel enjoyable trs, trs Access in acute ais ...
good ergonomics as standing by is a bit against assi galre because you have to block one of the angles between its legs, if not eventually land. Same with respect to the stands (well for those who use) Personally, I hung on the wall (wall stand) more practical, high quality and Aesthetics.
Trs weight is correct, lgre ...
For his ... oh what a sound! Of what Jackson ... Mtallique enough, clean clean and fat distortion magically ... I would put 8 because the sound is good vriament.

SOUNDS

It's one of my 8 guitars, I plan to change the bridge pickup for an EMG, but I'm talking about the original ones.
I use two amps, a Sherwood 30 watt amp and a Peavey 5150 head and Marshall cabinets (all are 2 + 100 watts) and a Behringer multi-effects .... The sound of the scratch is divine even if his big sister, although more expensive, even better now sorts, but I always positions relative price and the prices of other guitars in its class. All sounds are interested, some other Gras Cristaline + ...
We must try to find out ... never buy a scratch on a head shot or a favorite, dress do not make the monk, must try it before ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about a year and a half ...
I love his look, his sound (even if the bridge pickups will be remplc by EMG), price, his game is ais ...
What I like least, its lack of balance owed its shape ... and I see nothing else to say.

The report qualitprix is ​​exellent.
If I chose I repeat what the referer no problem ...

J'espre you have met, if you want + I'll leave my MSN: hammer59@hotmail.fr

Made in India.
24 Fret, two microphones Jackson.
2 knob: its tone +
Channel fast, so very wide and flat!

UTILIZATION

The handle rebuttera the fan of Gibson guitars and other little sleeves and round off.
Very good access to acute, we can easily put four fingers up to the 21th box.
Look killer, but not easy to play assis.Tres fun to play as high settle down!
Yes, you put the selector on the mic acute, while the knob thoroughly, and it is a party to the metal extreme.On put the selector on the grave, and ready to make the stoner / sludge / doom.
They set clear, turn the button tone, and a Jazz sound.

SOUNDS

I play primarily metal, for the price, the sound is really huge! But the distortion is removed, er is very acute obtientdes slamming type Telecasters (note I did not say it was the sound of a tele).
I play a Fender Performer 650.
I use primarily the microphone to a well tranchant.Mais sometimes I use a well to the bold blue or doom.
But my preference is definitely the mic acute saturation that gives you the Randy Rhoads! This scratches up to its name! Although it costs 300, it was the sound characteristic of Jackson!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it now for 2 months.
She has a look that kills, it's true, but mostly it's the extreme metal of the 80s (Kreator)! A handle very suitable for a quick game!
I tried a few Ibanez, can be more versatile!
If it is for a first guitar but you're on to the metal, please! Put 100 more than for a normal guitar input end and you will not have to change any time soon! on the other hand, if you are in your broader range of style, I'd recommend an Ibanez, which also can have a big sound, but more versatile than Jackson!
I would do this choice indeed.

-Made in Indonesia.
-24 Frets, it helps for solos ... ;-P, two humbuckers Jackson.
"It's simple, no Floyd, then fixed bridge. (Check the picture!)
-A volume knob, one tone, and a microphone selector 3 positions. (Logique. ..)
-Bolt.

UTILIZATION

Channel just extra. Super fast, super end to the top of the game fast and nag!
-Access to acute is relatively simple, even if the shape of the guitar takes a little getting used to.
Ergonomics-excellent, against, again the shape of the guitar causes an imbalance. But you get used very easily. Guitar rather light compared to my old Stagg feels good on the back!
-Well then it depends on what there is to like her ... For blues and jazz sound that really happens a lot with acute micro clear sound. For my part I leave the saturated micro Acute making really good. But it all depends on the amp is used on my Fender, you get a metallic sound rather unpleasant, So I had plenty of time to find a nearly saturated hot for my taste ... But with a good pedal or an amp with good saturation cream it goes!

SOUNDS

-My style of music? Oh sure there's no better for the Metallica and Children Of Bodom, class and more!
Ben-Personal I use a Fender FM212R and there's more ... But hey it's not really compatible without pedal ... I tried it with a Digitech Death Metal and there but too good!
-Okay so here is simple, with the micro serious, one can not force the Doom, and we are able to do solos to twist the glass windows with acute micro!
"I love the crunch well, true to the micro acute Randy! Just a pure joy ... However the bass sound is really too advanced for me, unless you're playing for a funeral ...

OVERALL OPINION

-It is now four days that I utlise, and I'm madly in love ...
"I love the microphone acute form above ... The handle is ... Honestly aside from the slight imbalance due to the shape nothing wrong ...
-Oula so I tried a lot of models I tried many guitars in this price range, and I came across it by chance and had a OCCAZ gold. I had already looked for an LTD M-50, but frankly the quality is even smaller next to it.
-Excellent quality / price ratio, honestly, it's amazing to be able to acquire Jackson that price and especially of this quality at that!
-Not having much experience, of course I would do this election ... But I know some friends at the confirmed were surprised! So go ahead, enjoy!

2 humbuckers, alder body, maple neck, rosewood key

the pots are very steep, but no fry when they are not running so much attention when they rotate and the guitar sounds I do not see the pale mdrr (except that it's been chelou at first, but ca n ' has nothing to do with sound or jouablilité is a retail con)

UTILIZATION

A really nice run efficiently and to take control I confess to have loved

access to acute no problem (despite the heel of the neck)

SOUNDS

We play thrash in our group, Hellride. I find this guitar very well adapted to the style. I tried a Randall lights and the sound was huge, bold patator, finally clear the sound was really good I think especially for the price!

I like the clean sound as frankly nothing was wrong it is cool

However, the bridge pickup is too slammed, too ... for a super clear sound

and can be saturated could have more bass (if I played for the New thtrash but it takes a lot of treble like it)

Anyway a very pleasant guitar for sound I'm looking for.

OVERALL OPINION

I tried it, is that the lead guitarist in our group, not mine (I play Ibanez RG Made in Japan in 2001)

I admit I hallucinated sound is really not bad at all
aggressive, uh pretty accurate I think, nag, I like a lot in my all-tube ca randall was a fun time to chain all the plans and the most barbaric thrash riffs and metalcore in our group. I am finally broke the grip was direct, I quickly adapted to handle fast, super fast, super comfortable for jackson. frankly this guitar gives me a lot want to save money and buy myself a Randy Rhoads ... it is really flying this little V finally I have loved

uen what I wanted more hours so I was let go with lol

I am surprised by the quality of this guitar especially considering the price! and more metallic blue is super nice I think

Everything is already on the other review!

UTILIZATION

- The handle is it fun?

oh yes! super dish I can make me no other now! after is a matter of taste,
who loves big round and round rather go your way ..
- Access to acute (recent freight) is it easy?

form of RR gene requires nothing to get to the last box!
no complaints on that side
- Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?

it is rather light but slumps, m'enfin is a false problem well enough to put his arm
Right on the body of the guitar and you can let go the handle without it stings!
- Gets it easy to sound good? ...

so it all depends on the config you choose your microphone near the selector brings the volume back then to taste needle, or serious med and voila!

SOUNDS

- They are suitable to your style of music?

I am metal (necessarily with ste scratches) and it is suitable for any style I think is enough to settle personal totu I just scratched more in the thrash / death and that are ideally suited to a fast game!
- With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?

I play a jam lab (external sound card for scratching) and therefore an amp simulation software, I tested it on the mailing Microcube severe !!!!! and also a peavey and marshall in any case it sounds good
- What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?

I personally never play in the always clean pickup and I do not like her too fat nor too loud thus its own between the two.

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?

I've had a little over a year
- What is so special that you like most and least?

+ Form, sound, stick, rope traversing
- Pitched nose, congestion, special accessories (covers, feet ..)
- Have you tried many other models before buying it?

bah I played a few scratches but nothing better
- How would you rate the quality / price?

money is pretty big! the price is rather low and the quality is I know no scratches as well for that price!
- With experience, you do again this choice? ...

not hesitate yes, unless my budget was higher than the I back!

I put 9 for quality / price

T say it all already, but nothing bad, just 24 cases

UTILIZATION

The handle is qu'agrable, easy to play, very useful for solos, you reach that goal without problem to the 24th box, thanks to the shape, the guitar is lgre, and design, well veiled ago no photo, but I have to love is sublime, adoring Alexi Laiho and bullet for my valentine ...^^ and I love the humbuckers, I love these types of microphones! I use mainly the sound Ben, see that the bridge pickup, so I put her on the most acute tone and volume a background, so no adjustments to make to find a good sound ^ ^

The only problem is its balance, but it is not a default, a CA can usually we get a fix this problem by ourselves

SOUNDS

Well it's clear that I not buy this guitar for blues lol I play metalcore with bcp, but especially the trivium in Drop D but a bit of metallica, I did not like pulling 09-42 base j 'I pass in 10-52, not even need to adjust the sleeve t ca a nickel! well then yes jackson has a rather dry sound, powerful, ac little serious, so the death of a Children of Bodom, it is made for that.

if I use a Boss MD-2 distortion and Hugh and Kettner Matrix Combo 100W, the boss has a LOT of bass, it brings a warmer sound for Jackson, the solos are beautiful and the palm mutes it gnial ! in short it has good sustain, not a great sustain, but good for a guitar to price, I found just the humbuckers lacks a bit of attack, but it's a matter of taste c

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for six months, I am always so happy! I like the most ben its design, its price, its Sonnora jackson, its quality for the price! weight, race

I have two Ibanez RG and a rising ac jackson humbuckers, a 7-string, those ac montes microphones jackson has more than just attack, rage, and a better sustain, but it's not good in ^ ^ same price if I tried Gibsons, strato (I hate ...) but I always AIM jackson the sound, dry, dark and powerful forms jackson bad I like, I prefer that the esp in that same form

yes I would do this choice, but if I would have more money I'd like to test a RR5 or sth like that

- Guitar made in India
- 24 Frets, Micro CVR2 Jackson humbuckers
- Fixed bridge
- A volume knob and a tone selector 3 position
- Channel under, Good end for easy access to acute

Willingness to start ......

UTILIZATION

At first glance the handle seems to be fairly easy to use .... This can be seen immediately after a second account of game ^ ^ good for wide sweeping move well enough to not be a problem for a good rhythm Metal, Rock. It easily reaches the 24th the shoe box (rectangle) slightly embarrassed but hey let's not quibble ^ ^
In short a good handle that holds well in hand to make good big rhythmic riffs or fast enough.

With a very light guitar design crazy! Randy Rhoads style always strikes the eye
has both monstrous and beautiful (which is to be said), but has noted a big imbalance due to the length and weight of the round face has a body "too" light, but hey it's only a matter of habit (put out your arm on the guitar strap back a little and it will reduce the imbalance

The pickups are pretty average to my taste .... the output level was not up to my expectations ... if not for microphones salon they will do ^ ^ (but should not take this good scratch for the show)
The main fault are: the imbalance of the guitar, and the location of the jack (a place where you press the guitar) which requires the purchase of a bent jack
(The microphone should be secondarily change)

SOUNDS

This guitar is for metalheads that's clear, just as is already the color!
I play a Line 6 Spider III 150W and found that the output level is not up to my expectation ....
Serious distortion in the microphone delivers very good sound but a bit "heavy" for my taste too clear and precise (good for agreements that is more than enough ^ ^) The bridge pickup is the better one, can "rely" on it but it quickly reaches its limits .....
With microphones it is not even worth trying to play clean, the notes are muffled, the good crystal clear sound of a good Start is far ^ ^ (also tell me that it is not play Alice in Wonderland this grate lol)
In short we must rely on the bridge pickup which is more accurate but deliver a lower distortion than the grave ...... must chosiir

OVERALL OPINION

I use this guitar for a year

I'm a fan of the handle is for the top of this form and SHRED is monstrous !!!!!!! The problem is the imbalance and place the jack .......

I tried another model in the range and I think JS is the best .. The others are too "normal" or "extravagant" to my taste after they are the same pickups ..... For my style Metal, Hardrock, Rock, Deathmetal inspired by Metallica, Children of Bodom, Machine Head, SOAD, Killswitch Engage etc etc

The price / quality ratio is excellent, in that range I think the guitar is the most efficient and more attractive .... I would do without this choice problem!

Do not hesitate to customized to your liking (microphones, etc. .... Mechanical)

I highly recommend it! You will not find better value in this range, plus it's "just" jackson ......

Made in Indonesia
24 frets
Pickups: 2 Jackson CVR2 Humbrucker
Fixed bridge.
2 knobs (volume and tone).
Maple neck.
Rosewood fingerboard.
Form: Randy Rhoads.
Alder body.
Finish: Black.
Traversing ropes.
Gibson type three-position selector.

So it's not too bad, it avoids the low end floyd. The strings are traversing a good point. I would have preferred a maple fingerboard, but with what we have done (and then taste and color).
The only downside that I found missing is the two volume knobs, which prevents the use of the selector as Killswitch or even variations in volume that I like to use.

9 / 10 the price is not bad. And the electronics is not yucky?

UTILIZATION

The handle is it nice?
He is. Late but not too broad, flat, but not icky typed shred for agreements with a fairly low action. I walk over, it's a pleasure. However it takes a little time to adapt.

Ergonomics is it good (in terms of shape, weight ...)?
Yes and no. Ergonomics is not too bad, form is superb.
However the guitar is very light and therefore picnic nose. As for the seating position is by far my favorite (and worse is class: P) but the jack under the horn the smaller force to use Jacks bent and not necessarily pleasant. And playing up a bit tiring if you play a lot on the first boxes.

Access to acute (last string) Is it easy?
It is just excellent despite a heel a bit crude. This handle is a direct route to the 24th box, I could even play on an eventual 28th box to tell you.

Do you get a good sound easy? ...
3.Sonorités see, it depends on what one seeks.

8 / 10

SOUNDS

Are they suitable for your style of music?
I bought this guitar for the metal: thrash, heavy, melo, speed, metalcore.
In this register it suits me perfectly. The sounds are perfect for Trivium, Metallica found easily, you catch Iron and Skid Row by fiddling a bit, playing with Ozzy, one begins to Malmsteen - thanks to the handle and microphones fairly accurate - if we add the right settings.
Drop D in this guitar is a treat!

What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "fat ",....)?
It gets very distorted sound (nan swear ...) and very warm.
Wholesale Metal: distos are punchy and with a good amount of distortion. Thus one can easily take to Matt Heafy Corey Beaulieu (Trivium) or Dimebag / Heatfield. In contrast, artificial harmonics do not go alone.

In less bulk metal: crystalline sounds are enough and good enough overdrive, which allows you to play the Iron Maiden or Skid Row. Nevertheless, they remain perhaps a little too loaded disto.

In the clear: it will drip pan. One feels the lack of warmth, roundness, sounds saturate quickly. With modeling it still manages to hit a lil funk / blues, but on the lamp is much less obvious. At the same time it is not for those styles that you buy the shovel eh.

With what (s) amplifier (s) or effect (s) do you play?
My home on a Line 6 Pod 2.0, if I played on the Blackstar and a ENGL. I liked the ENGL, the sound is powerful but its slight lack of precision spring by more cons. I add the more often a delay and reverb for neoclassical plans and obtains an appropriate sound. Otherwise, I cut the middle, volume up, and go to the New!

What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
I really appreciate the saturated and distorted sounds, but sounds less clear (to play Still Loving You is not very practical).

8 / 10

OVERALL OPINION

For how long have you been using it?
About 1 year, with two hours per day on average.

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
Yes, at Ibanez, Lag, Epiphone is the one I preferred (especially since I got to 150th in occas'). And then the guitars Metal Knight to determine at what price, Has it not that much.

What thing do you like most/least about it?
I absolutely love the round, flat, thin and wide, distorted sounds and the sustain is very good for a bolt-on neck, and the form which throws: D
I like the sounds less clear and the location of the jack relatively unbearable.

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
The value for money, I know in nine, there's maybe it means something better.
However on occasion (where these guitars abound), there's way to make very good business
I think I would do this choice indeed.
