Let me know what YOUR experience has been with any Jackson Pro Series RR guitars below!

Tonewood is an acoustic guitar concept. I have 2x identical guitars in different colours made from the exact same wood, same pickups, same brand, same model, same year, yet the tones sound different. Two electric guitars will always sound different, but it's not the type of wood that is changing the tone. Type of wood only affects sustain, not the tone. Tonewood is mainly a marketing ploy to make you pay more. Doesn't mean you shouldn't buy high end guitars, of course. I can see the value in different woods for weight reasons, different smoothness of the necks or the softness of the fretboard or rosewood vs. maple necks etc. But wood is just a feel thing, nothing to do with tone.

I've got a 2018 Pro RR3 from Indonesia. It's pretty much flawless fit, finish and setup out of the box. I don't understand how so many others are getting bad QC on theirs. I have a USA Jackson to so I have something to compare built quality and finish to.

That guitar does what a Jackson does which is metal better than any guitar! You can’t get tone from Ibanez, ESP etc you have no gripe! Killer Sounding Guitar. You want a wimpy 80’s machine buy an RG 550.

I recently got the purple one and it was awesome but it had some finish issues from being banged around somewhere. I too, thought the clear finish past the paint with on the neck was strange. I am currently waiting on a replacement.

I have a RRT3 love it but I feel the wiring is goofy it has a resistor soldered in and I don’t believe I’ve seen one in there before

Fantastic video! Hate mahogany myself due to the weight! And hate thin necks! Is there a high end version of the rrx24 guitars?

My pro series warrior had a crack forming at the bottom where the neck sat in the body and Jackson didn't really care and told me to take it to guitar center and they didn't do shit for me either. Paid 1300 (price a year or so ago) and had that issue after a few months. Also kinda bummed it didn't come with a gig bag for that price but whatever. Plan to buy another one since it was the most comfortable guitar I've owned. Also saw Dave is getting a red and yellow custom shop warrior release soon so might cop the yellow. Lmao

neck was thicker on my pro and I prefered the X neck. The pro just didnt feel like a Jackson that I was used to and happy with.

Sorry for all the comments... I also have the distortion pickup in a js 32 king v and like it but not as much as emg 81

I got the mahogany mick Thompson soloist and it's definitly different but my craziest one would be the leo Jaymes explorer kit I did with the mick Thompson pickups swapped in

Always look at specifications when you buy a guitar. It’s all there on the seller and manufacturer’s listing. Always do the extra research. Can’t get mad at a guitar when the information was there for you. However I will admit the neck profiles being different was a surprise for even me. I got a Pro Series Fury as an upgrade to my X series Jackson RRX24 and both said Thin U neck profile. However the Fury had a noticeably beefier neck.

Any x series has JB/59, all are louded with Jackson pickups, duncan designed, blackouts or emgs.

Nice video! What song are you playing at 14:18?

14:16 What's the name of the song dude? love it, wanna learn it, btw i just bought the purple version of this guitar, can't wait to check it out.

In fact it has a through body maple neck, so the mahogany is just for the wings and are not the mean tone. Just happened a misconception and this things can make a mess in our heads hehe

AAAAAaaaaaaaaaaand you're back! Nice to see you again Jimmy! I also have the same thumb pop on my left hand. It freaks my daughter out, too funny. Great looking guitar but if it doesn't fit, you must...return it. I do like the look reverse headstocks though. If the guitar hold its tuning, not a big issue. Great review, you covered all the bases. The playing aint bad either.

I prefer the X series. Tried a pro series and it wasn’t any better but it was heavier and more expensive. Prefer the blackouts and basswood body on the X .

I love the ibanez wizard necks

What?! I prefer the Distortions by a mile. I prefer Mahogany. Looks like you need to send that bad boy this way. By the way, super distortion is Dimarzio. That guitar is built for metal. We should work out a trade 😆

I dont understand the point. The guitar is awesome! Get a women, beer and stop complaining! Cheers from Portugal 🤘🍺🇵🇹

great to see a new video! Loved it.

Green scotchbrite the lacquer transition.

It looks sick

Why was this particular model discontinued?

yeah you should be in a band

why in the world would you compare this to an x model

You play like Richie kotzen

Wait so you actually beleive in tone wood? lol ok you had me right up until that part. Tone wood does not exsist in electric guitars.

finally I found a guitarist with the same thumb problem ahahahah!

Dude buys an upgraded model and is surprised and upset that its different. DOH!

Does it have stainless steel frets?

Sounds good I like do you want to sell it.

wood sound differences on an electric guitar are a myth

Jackson is a mixed bag of Junk today.....Fender absolutely destroyed them, period.

Dude wtf are you talking about

jeesh, 15 mins of nonsense.
