LTD AL 600 vs JACKSON RR24

[T3h_Killjoy]

Sawtooth cuz it has satin finished neck.

I have played both and own a RR24M and as you can tell I prefer the Jackson, since i got that one.

The ESP/LTD just seemed too bulky for me and I am 6 ft tall.

IMO, they are both so similar it all comes down to personal tastes.

 

[CatSodomizer]

is it just me or is it that the tone of the ESP sound chunkier?

Sawtooth cuz it has satin finished neck.

That's like half the reason I got the pink sawtooth (LTD though). The neck feels so secksy.

do it and your guitar will sound like shit

 

[charli]

why?

 

[<Arcane>]

when the varnish/the color on your guitar is too thick, the body of your guitar will loose most of his resonance. my guitar dealer painted one of his 50&#8364; strats and when he was ready he played a few chords and threw the guitar in the trash

 

[charli]

does that mean you can never change the finish on ur guitar?

 

[<Arcane>]

No. You can surely change the color of guitar BUT

1. I wouldn't do it on a expensive guitar

2. if you want to do it - don't do it for yourself and be sure that you remove the old color of your guitar. the thicker the finish is on your guitar, the worse it is for the sound.

 

[charli]

would they do it right at a guitar factory there is in my city?

 

[<Arcane>]

I don't think so but you can ask them. No, I think that no guitar manufaturer will make a new finish. They will tell you that it's not a good idead and it's also really expensive

 

[Delanoir]

Something like that would cost as much as an RR24 or AL600

 

[<Arcane>]

not taht much but around 300-400&#8364; I think

 

[Delanoir]

Yeah, that's probably more accurate.

I also forgot to mention that both the Blackie and Scythe come with Satin finish necks.

 

[charli]

but edwards scythe has white neck right? i guess thats uncomfortable

 

[<Arcane>]

unpainted neck as far as I know

 

[charli]

so both necks are the same?

 

[T3h_Killjoy]

Sawtooth

Scythe
