  • RR24 vs. Stars??

    Hi. I'm new here, I'm also a member of the Seymour Duncan Forum, and just wanted to say hi before going into my first question. For some while I've been having a hard time deciding between a RR24 and a Jackson Stars RR-J2...my question is, is it worth going through all that trouble to get a Stars?? and through which dealer would it be better, Ishibashi or Ibekke Gakki?? and not to mention the huge taxes and customs problems and delays...I live in Costa Rica you see...and also about Jackson Stars, I've seen there's kinda like a "semi-custom" order thing. What aspects of an axe are "customizable" by that type of order??

    Hi, it's worth going through it all!
    You can customize pretty much everything on a Stars, like MOP inlays, white binding, crazy control layout bla bla bla.
    Just ask any dealer and get a quote.

              Just curious, where did you get your info? I always thought that they were built in the same factory. I know the older Pro series neckthrus and Stars were from the same factory.

                same factory guys. One is just the brand sold out of Japan directly because of copyright laws on the Jackson name.

                        Me too. Atleast at the same place where they make today's Jackson neck-thru imports (RR24, SL3, KBRR,..), because they share the same serials.
