Captain still manages to play blues even when trying to shred. What a purist!

I wish Randy Rhoads and Dave Mustaine could've jammed.

[@Iheartdgd]

Bought one yesterday. So damn uncomfortable.ive been wanting one for a long time. I just installed some EMGs so I guess we’ll so it goes

[@SergioCzerweny]

A B Music n More I own a RANDY RR1 scince year 2003. Absolutly no playing other guitar. Love it. But takes some time to get used to. Not made to be played sitting. Just stand playing. Do you feel confort playing stand (before the Randy Imean)? If not, believe me you will. Tip, adjust guitar stripe to your confort. Lower/shorter point of the guitar body must fit/anchor inner side of your right leg(for right handed guitar). Experiment with right leg forward or backwad related to the other leg. This will give you 2 different poses. Choose tne one fits you best or both(I do both). Hope this helps you enjoy this incredible guitar.

[@Iheartdgd]

Sergio Czerweny thank you sir much appreciated! I’ve gotten a little more used to it and I really enjoy it now. But I agree, maybe I should start playing standing up.. yes, I have been comfortable in the past while standing. Plus it would be good practice.

[@diegoleiva7242]

I've been playing for almost 20 years and I bought the JS32T Kelly to treat myself a bit last year. As with most new guitars, it needed a tech visit for fret leveling and nut adjustments. Other than that, the stock Jackson pickups are decent, the tuners feel solid, and the pots haven't failed yet! It's a very nice, fun guitar to have around. I fully agree with the Captain that the neck feels like it could belong in a slightly upper range guitar. And it's also a more stable neck than I expected it to be. Thumbs up Jackson!

[@adammetys1828]

Nice playing :D

[@quinnevans83]

I got my js32 rhoads from guitar center. played it and enjoyed the crap out of it. when I got it home though, I opened up the output jack and the piece that has the all the knobs age stuff and noticed that it had a really bad wiring and soldering job. once I fixed it up though, it plays fricken brilliantly. I'm so glad I bought it.

[@VoiD1x]

so good

[@MalteseCross]

I have been a lover of the V for a very long time.. but I found that Dean VMNT is my favorite V, also no headstock drop when you stand up.. they placed the strap lock button in a perfect place.

I have a Jackson soloist I left back home when I moved out west and since then I've been playing on a Gibson les paul studio which I live the tone, but anytime I go to guitar center and pick up a Jackson even lower end models its just something else. To me they are the ultimate shred guitars.

[@slipknot00112]

THAT'S IT!!! We want a metal album from the captain!!

[@edforthecryptoz5503]

I did have the MartyFriedman model Jackson (Indonesian)made and man I gotta say the thing was just about flawless. With the licensed 'Rose' my Lord it stayed in tuned and even with the stock pickups sounded GREAT... I am a U.S.A. made guitar guy and you have to give credit when credit is due...If don't have the wallet for a custom shop or other similar, you cant beat these axes

[@benodell7906]

The most ergonomic shape is the dean ml, you can stick your leg in the v but you still have the third point making an angle for your other leg to go in while your sitting.

[@EradicatedVoid]

V:s are awesome! It's without a doubt my favourite guitar shape. Very ergonomic, comfortable and balanced. Regarding Jacksons, I think even the cheaper models are quite good. I had a DX10D for years when I began playing, served me well until its retirement. Cheap Floyd Roses have some inherent flaws (ergo, too soft metal), but since these guitars are hardtails, that won't be a problem. By the way, the Captain should totally get a Gibson V. They were quite popular among some blues players when they were first introduced! ;)

[@Daemon_D_Mentia]

Just a note on why why candles, aromatherapy and speed metal equal relaxation. As you approach tempos around 240 bpm, 4 beats per second, the frequency of your brainwaves begin resonating at that frequency. For humans this induces Theta brainwave dominance much like a deep meditative experience will accomplish. Tribal drumming meant to induce trance state tends to be rooted in a backbeat around 240bpm.

[@TheWolvesCurse]

my very first guitar was a Jackson JS30RR, so basicallly the predecessormodel to the one you tested here. was made in indonesia, not china though probably the best 270€ i spent in my life, starting the best hobby i could imagine back in 2005. edit: just found out this video was uploaded on my 24th birthday xD

[@6672rock]

The Rhoads model is not comfortable to play sitting down. Even when you wedge the back of the axe against your inner thigh like Lee Anderton is doing, it still feels too low to me, and there's not enough leverage to angle it upwards into a comfortable position. The King V is cut at a better angle for playing while sitting down.

[@GunsnRosesfan2012]

I understand. I'm the same way

[@jukkapenttinen4132]

You have to use guitar footrest when playing with these.

[@pshep138]

Agree. I had a JS32 and I couldn't get comfortable sitting down, and standing up the neck dive was pretty terrible. Ended up selling it. For a $100 guitar (I bought it used) it absolutely ripped, though.

[@andrewsmall4865]

Preston Shepherd any idea where I can nab one for $100?

[@pshep138]

I bought mine from a friend who I jam with sometimes, he has quite a few of them. He mentioned selling it to make some room, I offered $100, and that was that.

[@mariog2609]

Good Stuff... as I am planning to buy a V to play more Metal stuff....i use my PRS to be flexible but definitely want to have a Metal are.. .. so I would to watch is some comparisons on efforttable and matching Amps that should be used for those guitars and to get the right time. I have a Bugera v22 which is good for the moment but not what I am looking for to get closer to my favourites

[@xlr8r2010]

I have the JS32 Rhoads....its the Ivory colored one. The guitar is kind of light, it doesn't weigh much at all...the neck is amazing. I also put a Seymour Duncan Distortion TB-6 in the bridge. So....the neck plays great and the action is really nice, and the SD-TB6 sounds incredible. I have a Jackson SLX too (Satin Red Pearl) I put OFR steel bridge saddles, titanium insert blocks, and OFR string lock screws on it....sounds amazing too. Great guitars for the money....I'm happy with it.

[@adriansmith76]

My first proper guitar was Jackson V Japanese made , after 10 years of abuse its still going solid! Then i got Jackson rr5fr This was more better then V quality wise, as it cost me lot more then v. Now im planning to get kelly model , you can tell i like my jacksons...

[@thewickedwizard]

I'm with the Captain on this on. Ever since I got my first Fender I can barely look at these guitars let alone play them. It's worth saying I used to own BC Rich, Dean and had a flying V aswell.

[@TheGhostGuitars]

I love V guitars, they may not be the most practical guitars, but they have great panache! I have two and never will give them up! One is a black 1994 Jackson JRR-94 Concept V, this is Jackson's spot model before they started making the Rhoades V as a regular production model. It doesn't have Jackson's trademark sharkteeth inlays but has everything else! It's one of my two very first electric guitars I bought on the same day. Couldn't decide which one to get so I got both. The other one was a red metallic 1984 Yamaha SC-300T Beach Banana. I still have both guitars to this day! The other V is an 1980s vintage Cort Flying V. Oh that reminds me, both of my Vs are MIJ! The Cort Flying V is transparent red with a set neck, an unusual feature of those Lawsuit era Japanese guitars. Both are still in excellent condition and I take good care of them including keeping them in their hard shell case when not being used! Except for those times when they're being displayed and played on.

Hey chaps! Love the vids and so I have a request. Could you do a review of some mid range Dean Guitars in the near future please? I'm really tempted by their Chicago Flame series (the ones that come with the DiMarzio cream/cream). Downside, I can't find any store in Belgium to try them out myself. Seems to me their import chain to Europe is rather limited so I think a lot of your viewers would appreciate it.
