I would like to see either a one humbucker, or a one humbucker and one single coil reverse headstock import in the Professional series. Preferably with sharkfins.

I would like to see a Vic Signature Series Dinky, just like my GMW. Maybe just stick to black hardware, so as to keep the price down for everyone.
Y'know, I've seen something around here like that recently
jackson is doing everything right these days, I dont have one complaint about the import or USA lines of guitars. keep up the good work and I will keep playing them!
1.) you should make both MIJ rhoads 24 fretters (rx10d & rr3)
2.) replace all the moto sharkfins with real MOP (they look cheap, MOP will attract more buyers, you can keep the rosewood)
3.) Binding on all models (or atleast PRO series)
4.) I haven't tried the new improved trem yet, but the 2004 JT580 sucks, so you should consider a Schaller (JT590).
5.) making all PROs neck-thru and atleast Schaller if not OFR (maybe even ebony instead of rosewood, now we're getting close to the old Professional series )
6.) Pearl white finish
7.) Re-introducing Jackson JE-1000 and JE-1200 electronics
8.) Jackson DK2M with HSS or HS config -> I'm buying this!
9.) Battery compartment for models with active pickups/electronics
10.) Optional reverse sharkifns/headstock (RR3R / RR3 - remember )?
-Maple boards with black fins and black head and neck binding on Professional and MG Warrior models (and those other shapes too).
-The return of the Jackson JTX neck on some Pro models (same profile, same thickness, with maple and rosewood boards fins and binding). Maybe even a rear-loaded archtop JTX model?
-Model names on the headstock. There's plenty of room now that "Professional" and "Performer" have been removed, and there's always confusion on the part of uninformed dealers as to what model they are trying to sell. This way it's right under their nose and they can't cheat some uninformed shopper by selling an RR5 as an RR1.
-An MM1-style bolt-on with a flametop, Floyd-type trem (JT580, but routed long enough behind the fine tuners to accept an OFR), shark-eye inlays (moto/abalam on rosewood and black phenolic/abalam on maple), bound head/neck, SweeTone head. Let's try to steal as many Ibenhad and ESPee players as we can

The most human thing we can do is comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.
I don't know about the other import Rhoads models, but the JS30RR has the input jack on the lower vice upper wing, which is my only problem with this guitar. Also, possibly an actual battery compartment/cavity for the MG models.
the finishes/colour schemes have declined so dramatically over the last few years. i wanted a trans-green wrmg, but all i could get was trans-black. tobbacco sunburst was also axed off the dx10d and the entire usa catalogue.
drop the WRMG and replace it with a re-release of the warrior pro (need neckthru, need sharkies on slanted board, and definitely need BIG scalloped horns).
bound necks and headstocks on all pro series rather than just some (it's what everyone was whinging about after namm in january).
OFR to be offered as either an optional extra or a fixed standard on all pro/mg/x-series (i don't want my local muppet fitting it for me).
these three series should also have scalloped heels as standard (lose the tacky look).
Fuck ebay, fuck paypal

- Rhoads model with cutouts as a USA model and not a limited/custom shop. (example :: http://www.jacksonguitars.com/custom...?graphic_id=57.) This and the cutout kelly are two of the best new designs that I have seen out of you guys in the past couple of years.
^^^ I know... wishful thining.
- +1 on more guitars with maple boards/black binding/sharkies option. It is a nice addition to already solid/trademark design.
