Jackson JS30 RR Help Request!

[Mazz]

Yes, this is my first jackson, wondering if I can get a pickguard and the V shaped string-thru add-on?

also getting EMG 81's on it, along with hopefully a Sharkie neck (can't find one on the uk e-bay though *sad face* )

[FastFretV]

Get the EMG Active pup's, you will love em.......

[Mazz]

Sweet, now anyone got anything about the Sharkie Neck?

cancel the pick guard.... I noticed it has a cool looking spades symbol painted on it

will post pics, just because the owner has another cool guitar and also a very cool sticker thing I think it is

For a sharkie neck, look on the American ebay. They pop up there often. May not be up for international listing, which sucks, but you may negotiate or something similar. Also, it's good to look up all the mainland European versions of the bay, like German, Belgian, etc. You may find a few there, plus you have less worries because shipping within Europe is quite easy.

If all else fails, you could get those stickers on there.

for a pickguard hit up budman68 fretsonthenet.com he'll make one for ya.
although hes in the US so i dont know if you wanna pay the shipping. he does great work check the feedback section.

Ok Thanks, anything about the V shaped string thru thing?

looking across the international sales and found this, how would I get them on?

that would take alot of work to do. if i remember correctly you're 14 right? this would require a skilled luthier to do and would probably end up costing way more than just buying a sharkie neck. as for the string thru v plate budman can do that too. check his site he may have some in stock.

You're gonna have to do a little work if you wanna upgrade the neck anyways. When I swapped a DXMG neck onto my JSRR I had to widen the neck pocket to make the new neck fit. I actually sold this one recently, but here's a pic anyways....

[Mazz]

Thanks guys! Anyone want pics of the graphic on it?

Personally I like it

and Outsider for a JS that's beautiful!

Man dude, sorry to hear that...

what was the replacement?

[outsider666]

No replacement yet, had to downsize and only my neckthru's got to stay.

Just wait for someone to post a 24 fret sharkie neck on here you will get a better deal and the people here are great to work with.

Dave (Budman) will probably need a tracing of the hole pattern to make the v-plate, so there's that to consider. Might wanna shop locally in that case.

Sharkfin necks pop up all the time on Ebay, but very few are non-Floyded. You can either live with the locking nut or replace it with a regular nut. Someone makes one that screws on as a Floyd replacement, but the ones I've seen are ugly as ass.

Would it be easier just buy rr3 and block foyd?
