In my quest for a new shredaxe, the Jackson RR5 has crossed my mind

http://www.jacksonguitars.com/products/pro...duct=2913002877

My question, is it comfortable to sit and play with for hours? I`m already kinda used to play on the "classic way" with the guitar resting on the left foot... but haven`t tried it out with a V guitar.

Because except from that issue...I think I`m in love with the guitar. Stringthrough, neckthrough, SD humbuckers, AWESOME finish and a body that really demands attention! Also...I don`t know, but believes that the neck is a bit thin and great for blazin leads (even if I`m not capable of playing that yet biggrin.gif )

It's a great guitar! I'Ve played it and loved it besides the old school look but hey to each their own.
The Neck is thin but not as thin as an Ibanez Wizard Neck; Jackson Necks are very comfortable!

If you're comfortable with the 'classic' way playing then it's no problem, the V shape fits on your right leg and therefore stays in the classic position without even having to hold the guitar. My Flying V plays so comfortable in that position that I can't play my les paul in a normal way anymore...
