Hello everyone,
Since the japanese Jackson factory is no longer on duty, I came to realise that pretty much all that is left is the x series, the js and the USA.
I personally like the js for beginners, I would refer them a lot when I was working at a music store here. the x series has interesting models with an amazing quality-price range and the USA well it's the USA.
But quality wise there's a major gap between the x series and the USA models. A gap that to me the japanese guitars would usually fill.
So I was wondering if anyone heard about some kind of other series on the way from jackson? Personally, it seems like te USA line never changes and I think maybe they could make cheaper USA-made guitars of new models or any other idea for an in-between from USA to x series.

There is a bit of rumor out there, but nothing concrete.. As for cheaper USA guitars, prices just went up not that long ago, and they tried to produce a cheaper USA line years ago and couldn't do anything to reduce the production costs, so the odds of that happening seem to be slim to none..

yeah well I didn't mean take the RR1 and make it cheaper, I meant more like make new models made in USA. Anyways, basicly I'm just looking forward to anything that could replace the japanese lines.
