[Thumas]

Hi, was wondering if anyone can help me get some specs on my new guitar, the serial is RR2471 so i guess it is from 1989
found it in very good condition, i payed 920$ and live in sweden so i hope i did'nt overpay? here are some pictures.

Unique paintjob!

That price sounds fine to me, but I'm not well-versed in the USA models.

I'd say (depending on the market) it would go between $1200 and $1500 here in the states. Might take an auction or two to hit that, market is fickle.

So yeah, I'd say you got a good price.

[Thumas]

ok, thanks.
got any tip where i can look to find som specs for my guitar, kind of wood and so on.
any suggestion on pickups i play mostly metal/thrash

That high? I'd say 900 - 1200. Not everybody would be into that graphic.
So for Europe, that was a good price.

I qualified my amount by saying you'd have to have a few auctions to find a buyer interested in that specific graphic.

Yep, it's made of wood.

Pickups? You need an amp, not pickups.

Start messing with it and I'll knock a couple of hundred bucks off of what I quoted

[StukaJU87]

I think you did well. The graphic would not have put me off at that price.

That is a very unique graphic. Any signs it might be a refin?

The fins look factory to me. :think:

I don't know how much $920 is in Sweden, but if it's like $920 in the US I'd say you got a decent deal. I'm not keen on the graphic, but, I don't really like graphics and it's not my guitar. Plus, it's not nearly as awful as japanese clown vomit or the cock dragon, so if it's in good shape and all I'd say you got yourself a pretty kick-ass guitar, my friend!

The cock dragon is a piece of JCF history!

Good one!

looks like original, can't find anything that tells me different.

[Thumas]

to be honest i would choose a guitar without graphics everyday in the weak, but when i checked here in sweden what was available at the time i could'nt find any better guitar in my price range, and the feel of the guitar comes before the looks for me. and it feels just fine, but i don't like the pickups, i guess i will try duncan jb, had in in my old rr3 and it sounded good in there.

For a USA Jackson that's an excellent price on the European market! Congrats on the new guitar.
