Hi all, newbie here, questions about my WRXT

[stfudonny]

Sam here from Montreal, the disneyland for alcoholics and potheads.
I got me a WRXT and I have a coupla questions:

-Is the body made of basswood or alder? I've seen conflicting information on different sites. Is it different than the WRMG, aside from the pickups and inlays? (And what does MOTO stand for?) Serial number is 980575A, if that helps.

-For my first upgrade should I swap the shite Duncan Designeds? or should I go for a OFR (or Schaller, perhaps)? I'm not that big on the stock pups, then again I don't like going out of tune every time I use the whammy.

I know the WRXT's entry level but dammit I love it. I tried some higher priced Ibanez guitars, but the WRXT felt so playable and balanced, and I can upgrade it to get something decent down the line. I will probably get a sexier Jackson in the distant future.

(And what does MOTO stand for?) = "Mother of Toilet Seat"

no idea on the other info you are looking for.

Welcome to the forum by the way!

Wouldn't that be MOTS?

I think it's Alder just like the MG. As far as upgrades go - the JT580LP trems I've used have been pretty decent so I would swap pickups first.

For the X series Jackson is using BASS WOOD and for the MG series they using ALDER WOOD. I have WRXT to. Floyd rose bridge i like it, i like duncan designs in there to, but i chenged bridge pickup for a DIMEBUCKER, now it's sounds even better.
