Only new Jackson guitars this year are the Kevin Bonds sig rhoads, adn chris oldes wolbes sp from fear factory I think.

Can't rmember any other production mdoels out.

Thats more than liekly another custom shop model, it wasent at namm so i doubt it will be a production model.

Also, there will be an import 24 fret rhoads by the time of the summer NAMM. As far as I have heard, this new rhoads will be exactly like the rr5, except it will have 24 frets. Other than that and the two sig models, the other stuff will be custom shop options. Oh yeah, including a 27 fret soloist.

The JS30 RR with 24 frets has been out since last year, but i'd rather get a more expensive model with less fret's, just me though.

Indian made jacksons arent that great.

I don't know about Jackson, but Ibanez updated alot of their models. They look great.

exactly.

It was at the winter NAMM, but there are no goo pics of it yet. It should make a better appearance at the summer NAMM though.

It would be nice if they made a 24fret randy but if I'm going to spend $2000 on a guitar which I am in the far far future then I might as well have me a custom guitar made save up $2500 more can you say death angel.

Yeah they really need to make the RR-1's w/ 24 frets, annoys me that they don't.

fret access on RRs with 24 frets, even with the cut in, dont seem to have great fret access at all.

Well I'd think you'd get used to it after a while, same thing w/ me on Les Pauls, even w/ just 22 it's really hard for me to reach the high frets cuz I'm not used to it.
