Aiite so I am the furthest from a Floyd connoisseur so after seeing all the comments rinsing them on the 1500, I have done a ton of research. Basically my findings are: Floyd Rose Original: The OG made in Germany. Rock solid. Floyd Rose 1000: Exact same design, materials, and metals as the Original, but made in South Korea. Originally designed as an OEM-only series, which is why if you try to buy them aftermarket, it's actually more costly than an OFR lol. There is also a low-profile version that looks really clean, but with the OG design it's practically identical to the Original apart from country of origin. Floyd Rose 1500: Same as Floyd Rose 1000, except it has some stainless steel parts (that you can see), and a push-in trem bar ala Gotoh 1996T. Floyd Rose Special: Trash. Has softer zinc-alloy parts that wear quicker and makes for a less-reliable tremolo. Kind of confusing because Sweetwater has a "1000 Series Special", which is a Special and not a 1000/1500. Unless it's been "hot rodded" with stainless steel or titanium parts (Schecter does this), avoid at all costs. TL;DR 1000 is great, but on their "flagship" American production series, you could argue they should have put an OFR since it's on their MJ and Concept Series already. IMO the debate is kind of ridiculous, though, since Gotoh makes the best Floyd anyways lol.

The worse Floyd I've ever had on a guitar was on a 2006 Korean ML 79. Utter shit. It was a Lo-Pro model that had a completely non-standard-shaped base plate. No one at Dean could give me a solid reply on a decent drop-in replacement. I eventually took it to bits, bought a 42mm brass block and all the other bits n'bobs, mainly import titanium parts when I could get them on sale. Works great now, what a fuckin' palaver though, The rest of the guitar, except maybe the pups were pretty great quality. I eventually swapped them out as well for Seymour Duncans.

@thedyingfetus9493
@thedyingfetus9493 2 года назад
Its really better to have more mid range and scoop afterwards than have a scooped pickups or amp imo. A guitar is an instrument that shines more in the midrange, you just got to get that initial thickness of the bass and low mid and attack in the highs, afterwards you just clean it up. If you only have bass and highs in your guitar tone, it will cut in the mix but will play in the territory of other instruments so youll get less of the bass and cymbals.

Ive got a MIJ Dk2 in Eerie Dess Swirl. It's HSS like this one with a JB in the bridge, super thin neck and I absolutely love it. This has a few higher end parts (locking tuners, floyd 1500 vs licensed, spoke wheel truss rod adjust and neck thru vs bolt on) but it's hard for me to really see the value proposition here when you can pick up an old MIJ for a lot cheaper and drop a fraction of the difference in upgrading a few parts and it's on par if not better. And that's not to mention the LTD 1000 series or E-II options out there which I know is a better comparison being new to new. I know you're paying a premium for the MIA factor but man. Regardless, I'm glad Fender seems to be giving Jackson some love after years of letting them wither on the vine for the last how many ever years, and I hope they continue to breathe life back into the company because I like tons of others love what Jackson used to be. Despite my criticisms this is a step in the right direction for them imo.

Agree with your position on this model's price. Yes, it's nice, but not $2600 nice. In 2018 I bought a used neck-through MIJ Rhoads for $450. That said, if they ditched the green or blue and made a blood red MIA Soloist, I could be tempted.

@flekkzo
@flekkzo 2 года назад
The lack of binding makes me sad, it’s part of the DNA of Jackson. Also that should be a high end Floyd on a guitar that expensive:( How to quickly set it up? Make sure you have a tuner that registers all strings. Open the locks, set the fine tuners to neutral, strum, tune up towards the correct tuning (but just half a turn) and move to the next string. Then “sweep” tune until you are close (but never tune sharp). Then whammy and stretch and bend. Sweep into tune. Repeat until it doesn’t go out of tune. Lock. Done. If you tune one string at a time it takes *forever*. If you turn sharp it gets messy. (Yes, need to do the whole setup with the springs, neck, string height, etc too. But don’t need to do that when one is just swapping out strings.)

I'd take out the JB and neck single coil and swap them with rail humbuckers (Normal and single sizes), put in a three way switch for just the neck and bridge, put the middle coil to a push pull pot done on the tone knob, and have a coil split push pull on the volume knob for the neck and bridge. And I would try and do it with as little of drilling as I could.

Jackson will always be first in my heart. 1984 Rhoads, 1989 Concert Bass, 1990 Soloist, 2015 Kelly, all US-made. The Kelly was my Custom Select order, I requested non-recessed to be able to install the D-Tuna. I love the neck profile - mine all have "standard" necks, a medium thickness comparable to Gibson slim taper. If they can have the Corona production line start making neck-thru instruments when they've only made Fender bolt-ons previously, I could see the Ensenada production line following suit in a few years (the Pro Series Dinkies are already made there). My only quibbles with the spec are that the fretboard seems to be unbound, and the case is a soft case. On unbound fretboards, I'd rather see dots or other small inlays. If they added a seven-string (and ideally in one of the pointy shapes and not just a Dinky/Soloist), it'll be an instant buy and I'll put the Rhoads back to E from B tuning.

Well it's do able but you probably won't be doing it very comfortably or very conveniently, especially if you have big hands. That being said things to make tuning changing tuning and general set up easier 1. you can actually measure about how much you need to move the claw to change tunings so long as you keep the same string guage and springs measuring from the back of the claw to the wall of the cavity either at the center or behind the screws (write down measurements for future reference) 2. Tune from the g string first and alternate strings going out ending with the 6th string 3. Find or make something you can block the trem with to make string changes quicker 4 just about any of the pick ups from the X Series up can be split

My first love was the Les Paul, but much later on, I got into shreddy, pointy guitars. Ill have to check these out super strats just feel and look awesome.

Love my USA Jacksons, glad you are finally warming up to them. USA Jacksons have always been my favorite. ESP E-II guitars are great, but their frets are smaller, which really annoyed me when I first tried them. Non-USA Jacksons have been hit and miss for me... personally would steer clear, unless you can find super early Made in Japan Jacksons from a specific era... those are right up there with Jackson USA Custom Shop.

A jackson with JB bridge is one of the best tones in metal

On Andertons' demo of these, Rabea mentions at one point that these are very "middy" guitars.

I have a Dinky JS22, was amazed after the set up how low the action was and how well it played for a sub $200 Axe.

Easiest way to balance a Floyd is to lock the bridge where you want it, tune it where you need it, lock the nut and release the block off the bridge. Then to get it all balanced, adjust the claw holding the tension springs until the guitar is back in tune. I’ve never had that fail. Learned it from Uncle Ben Eller ;)

The first guitar I ever got G.A.S. for was a USA Jackson Soloist SL1 in eerie dess swirl. I strayed far from any genre of music where that would be the appropriate choice, but this new american run (combined with how amazing my charvel dk24 is) is really drumming up some of those old feelings!

The Floyd 1500 is a damn good trem. They further refine the knife edges than reg 1000's and the bar is tightened with a hex head and stays like that for a while before retightening. My original Floyd has the collar and it stays tight. My 1000 loosens off immediately and is very annoying. I'd take a 1500 or a OFR with equal satisfaction

these idiot newbies don't realize, 1500 is the STANDARD on most metal guitars today!!......It's not Jackson "being cheap".......it's just what their competitors are doing too.....most guys swap Trems out anyways, I know I did on my Jackson. There's many different types and brands, chrome, nickel, black chrome, gun metal, etc......I don't know anyone that keeps the stock Trem on a Jackson, even IF it's good......

stainless steel frets wear out strings more even if they’re also the same material and i could see this with titanium though that’s rare for both

Ok, time for my take now that the video is over. I’m stoked on this. I’ve already said before that normal shapes aren’t my cup of tea, I’m all about the pointy bois. But these look sick and I’m stoked on the hype they’ve been getting. I’m personally/particularly fond of the pearl white finish that came out. Here’s to hoping for the pointy bois to come out of Corona (with a Floyd). Corona (COVID) brought us back to Corona..? All I’ve ever owned/own are imports (starting with JS 15 years ago, then pro, then X, then some more pro’s, and most recently Concept before Concept became official). Here’s to hoping finally getting my hands on a USA pointy boi.

One more thing. I’m also surprised they sent you this haha. Every time you weren’t feeling Jackson it was kind of a tongue in cheek moment for me cause I enjoy your content, but don’t appreciate Jackson slander 😂. I’m glad you dig this one though!

easier floyd balance: Lock the bridge, tune to the desired tuning, the unpark, adjust the springs until it's level again - you should be in the ballpark of the tuning. rinse and repeat when you change height/string gauge/tuning. intonation is a bit more painful... but once set up, Floyds are cool as

I'm not into the upside down sharkfin inlays. I like the regular one's. That one is gorgeous though, that's like my favorite color for a superstrat. Had a Kramer from the late 80's in pretty much the same color.
