Okay, so after going through both a JS30 Dinky and a KV2 and ending up selling both, I thought "I guess Jackson isn't the company for me". However I saw an ad in what you could call the Swedish equivalent of Craigslist on the sale of a used RR5. So I e-mailed the guy, asked what he wanted for it and since it was half the price of a new one + case (not sure if the new ones come with one), I kept it in mind and when I got enough money for it, I figured "Fuck it, why not?". I paid for it monday, he set it up with new strings yesterday and took it to a company that'd transport it here via bus. It arrived today and I really like it so far. Only problem is a really annoying hum on the bridge and neck-positions on the toggle switch. Loudest on the bridge-pup, which sucks. Ah well.
The case has a logo of the former owners band on it which I decided to keep, as a sign of respect for where the guitar has been.
Hopefully, I won't end up not liking it in the near future like I did with the KV. That shit really stung.
