Whats the story on these US made LTDs in Japan?

[AK47]

Here is a link to what I am talking about. The dealers just got a shipment of these all USA made.

Another back track on the 'definitely no more Ltds' statement?

[AK47]

Looks like a RR1 body with LTD specs?

[Stinkbug]

Well, I guess technically it's not a "Jackson", it's a "Jackson Stars".

[RobRR]

Yeah, that looks like an RR1 body, not a Concorde body.

Jackson Stars U.S.A. CTB RR-1 Limited Snow White w/Pin Black

Wow, big letters right there on the top of the page.

As for "not a Jackson, it's a JacksonStars", we need to get something straight: These are Jacksons. Period. The USA Custom Shop models like this are made in the USA Custom Shop and shipped to Japan,

Is there anyone left who is not clear on that?

Wow, FMIC further destroying the Jackson legacy and the "no more Randy Rhoads LTD copies". Pretty crappy thing to do. They think they can ship them over there and nobody will know. Nice find by the way.

Thanks,
I have been able to find pretty much any guitar I have ever wanted or at least locate one that is owned by someone else. My friends always suggested I should do guitar brokerage on the side where I locate hard to find guitars for people then pay a middle man fee. Sometimes it does take years but I always find whatever guitar I am looking for.

In the process of hunting elusive guitars I come across random weird guitars like this RR LTD.

Its NOT an LTD copy! The LTD is the Concorde body, this is an RR1 body. Very different!

[shadowcat]

Indeed, these are no LTD copies, I think anyone could order a custom like this.

[eakinj]

If Jackson Stars ever re-opens it's custom shop, this may be very close to what i order from there.

Any word on that?

Oh and about the LTD, there was a jackson LTD run, I'm pretty sure someone from here got one, there were slight differences but they did exist. I don't know if they were done in 1992 as well or some other run.

I think the RR1 looks sweet with that graphic and the rear route.

I wish they would release them that way as well. I'm kind of sick of the top route.

They have them at the other Online store in Japan too. They've been there for a while.

They even had a J2 Dave Mustaine run. Too bad they didn't have a J1 run of those..
