finally got it yesterday (after almost a years of begging)
i try to give a detailed description for you guys as it seems to be all original(for me at least):
it´s a 85 student rhoads in a wonderful red metalflake finish [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
the clearcoat feels kinda "sticky" why is that?
and the finish is not very even(orangeskin) due to the flakes
in the tremcav under the kahler (pulled off tape) you can read:
"MJ" or maybe "MS" and "5080" or maybe "5282"
in a very sloopy pencil writing
it´s got a kahler pro (with a thick plastic bezel beneath)
a J50N at the neck and a J80 at the bridge
it plays very fast [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] although it has
rosewood board
really skinny frets (dunno if that´s still medium if not small)
quite a fat neck 20 to 22 mm !!
it´s got a standard 1 11/16 nutwith
a plastic bezel under the KahlerNut
a plastic plate on top of the headstock
you can see the outlines of the "Jackson TM MADE IN USA" decal if you look close
looks almost like the put 2 logos on it cause on some parts you clearly can see 2 outlines of the characters esp the TM is "shaded to double"
it´s got its correct nonlabeled 90degree tuners
and strapbuttons that are not brass under the black but show sth silvery
they have a quite fat lip (so theres only a small hole for the screwhead) as you can see in one of the pics
it has quite few wear for a 85 rhoads [img]/images/graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img]
just some minor chips on the tips
no damage to the wood and the primer
no scratches over body and neck at all
just some minor polishing swirls
