    Hello people!

    It's been a tiny year since I got my RR24M, but recently I found this very cute surprise in the local musicstore...

    The (most likely) by many desired RR24 LTD with white binding and reversed sharkies.
    Everybody in Europe thought the last model had been sold by musicstore last year, but somehow this rather small local musicstore had this treasure still hanging there since 06' I believe (since the serial number starts with 06'?).

    I'm a very happy camper indeed



    And below a picture of my first purchased RR24M:



    Both are real honey's and play excellent, though I do notice a significant difference in neck-width and sound, the M is way thinner, the LTD more of a les-paul neck (but plays excellent!! I even prefer it to the M) and the LTD has an extremely heavy sound compared to the clear notes the M produces. They're both used to play different things, but I love both

    It's my first time on this forum btw, so I'm very happy to be able to say hello to all you guys'n madam's, I'm 28, living in the very disliked location of Belgium, the Flanders region to be more precise.

    I'm happy to be able to show off both those RR's I love playing so much, and I hope you people will enjoy the pictures

    Kind regards,

    MestV

        Thanks VitaminG ^^ very kind. I love the look as well.

        KingVee, Those sharkies are indeed very nice. I'm not sure if they're MOP or MOTO though, all I can say is that they look very great on this guitar. She plays extremely heavy as well, it's very weird how ebony makes such a difference with maple, I thought the difference would be minimal and just somewhat in tone, but this guitar really sounds way heavier despite the same EMG-81 in them.

              I believe all imports have MOTO, looks great nonetheless.

              I love reversed sharkfins on pretty much everything Jackson. haha :P

                I actually can't see if mine are mop or moto... Fact is that these limitid editions (only made 75 of them I believe, well, one says 75, another says 300) don't really have any clear specs anywhere. Any way to find out?

                  I'd say get a close-up shot of 'em, I still call for MOTO though. MOP is shinier and have more color to it.

                    Ok, here it goes!

                    I took those with a simple phonecamera, I can take better with a digital if you would like that (batty's loading right now). But perhaps these will do?

                    Took one without flash and the others with:

                      Yup, looks like MOTO to me.

                      Here are pictures to compare from my KV2.
