      All the '09 models are more expensive...RR3 and the like are in the $1000 price range, and the DX10D and company have moved up to almost $700.

        $700 for a DX10? What a ripoff.

          What's going on? :think: I was browsing most online music store and the price of the Jackson imports has gone way on the high side.

                My mistake, the price of an X series guitar is more around $550-$600, but that's still pretty high.

                  Well the Yen is always getting stronger the would explain the price spike.

                  How is the tremolo on the DK2 ?
                  Does it stay in tune ?

                    I think the trems are pretty good, but many opt for replacing with an OFR down the road.

                    Both of the one's I've owned had OFR trems.

                      yeah they come with the jt580lp if im not mistaken. pretty good trems. if you're not a real crazy floyd user it'll do just fine, but like spike said most go for an ofr.

                      hey spike, does the ofr fit with no modifications?

                        It seems like it, but I can't say for sure since I bought each of them already upgraded.
                        Alvin or Joel could comfirm.
                        Seems to me there may be an issue with the trem posts themselves, not the spacing.
                        Dave probably has them at frets on the net.
