    I've seen a lot of people say they want a neck pickup. Then why not just buy and rr1t? I for one don't like neck pickups, never have. This guitar is pretty close to what I was about to spend close to 4000 dollars on in the custom shop.
    In the future though I need to remember to not buy guitars while on Nyquil

    • For those that keep advising people to buy an RR1.......keep in mind this guitar is called the....

      RR24

      Does that not illustrate the most important feature of this guitar that is NOT on an RR1?

        I agree, I never use the neck pickup, but can deal with a Hum/Hum setup, but Hum/S/S picklups annoy me to no end Jack.

          I think a better arguement is this is a RR24, why try to make it an RR1 which is what a lot of people are doing and they would be better served going with an RR1 then this model guitar. All the talk of adding pickups, and changing it to MOP, and the neck binding, why bother with the RR24, if all that stuff is so nessessary, then buy a custom shop guitar and avoid this one.

          This guitar is what it is. It's its own model, if people don't like the features then this is the wrong model for them.

          I was (and actually still am) very excited about this guitar coming out, it's close enough to what I was about to pay Jacksons custom shop $4000+ for that the minor things that I would have liked arn't really missed. It's some what discouraging to read through many excited posts to have them slowly turn and start to nit pick everything.

          If this model is popular, I'm sure they'll do a two pick up version some day with 24 frets etc. But for now, I'm just happy this guitar is coming out and people really just need to relax

                    Tell THAT to the MOP and Binding lovers that can't seem to justify buying this guitar without them (but they still post on it). I,d rather have the extra 2 frets than MOP or binding............

                          man, you're really getting your panties in a bunch over my inlay preferences aren't you?

                          Anyway, I've decided to pass on the RR24 after all. Not because of the inlays, but because I'd rather not buy a neck-through with a recessed trem. I played a recessed Floyd the other day and suddenly remembered why I started buying old import Charvels. I recently passed on a beautiful maple-boarded Spectrum for the same reason.

                          I think I will build a Jackson mutt to quench my GAS for now.

I can't believe the love for inlay material on this board to justify buying a guitar????? I can see the arguement for a real OFR or real Duncans or neck-through BUT inlays.........
