This is a great guitar by Jackson with Original Floyd Rose, 24 Jumbo Frets(The only RR model with 24) and an EMG 81 humbucker. It is very minimalistic with just one knob and a single humbucker but you dont need more than that for metal music IMO. I played it and it's great and better than the Alexi series by ESP for the same price.
http://www.guitarcenter.com/Jackson-RR24-R...578-i1275084.gc Cheapo version would be this Explorer type by Epiphone with Floyd(original) and emg 81/85 http://www.guitarcenter.com/Epiphone-Futur...616-i1391961.gc The Dean Razorbacks or Flying V's are in your price limit. They look metal and have EMG 81/85 pus, but only a licensed floyd which is not the best quality... http://www.guitarcenter.com/Dean-Razorback...853-i1174737.gc --------------------  Gear: - Jackson USA Select KV2 King V with EMG 81/85 - Gibson Les Paul Custom Arctic White with EMG 81/85 - Ibanez Rg 8527 J Custom 7-String with DiMarzio Evolution and Air Norton - Peavey 6505+ head with Marshall 1960AV 4x12 cab - Peavey Vypyr 30 Practice Amp - Dunlop Crybaby From Hell, Maxon OD808, Boss TU-2, MXR CarbonCopy, ISP Decimator, MXR Custom Audio Electronics Booster |

I have never played a guitar with dimarzio pickups so I dont know how they sound. I have only used Seymor Duncan and EMG. I would think they sound simular to the SD pickups. Maybe someone else here at GMC could answer that question better than me. I like the Ibanez though
I think my next guitar will be this one http://www.proguitarshop.com/product.php?P...;CategoryID=494 This post has been edited by 2mazzo: Aug 23 2008, 01:59 PM -------------------- Guitars: ESP M-I/FR
