Entry Gear

Jackson Stars/RR-J1E

owner: Shin

2021.8.12: I bought this item because it had been on the market for a long time and I had always been curious about it and had a coupon.
It was listed under a different model number on the product page, but I searched for it and found information about a past listing that was probably made by the first person who customized it.
When it was first sold, it had black parts including the panels, and the various panels were newly made with mirror panels, changed to gold parts, added EMG's booster PA-2, and added Sparzel locking pegs.
It was also very filthy at the time of acquisition, but the previous owner had not changed it from the product page where it was found, except for replacing the strap pins, pegs, and knobs.
Rather, the hard case and tremolo back panel are missing...
The GOTOH pegs that were replaced were chrome, so I'm replacing them with gold, and I'm also replacing the locking pins with Dunlop ones, since the Schaller ones seem to have painful prongs, and I'm also replacing the insert block with a titanium one.
2021.8.14: The replacement parts are ready, so I assembled it.
The only strap pin has a broken thread, so I will consult with them to see if it can be removed before attaching it.
2021.8.29:I had the broken screw removed, the wood filled in, the pin reattached, and the height of the lock nut adjusted at the workshop.
I am very happy that the stress of holding the low position has been reduced considerably and the strap pin is now back in the same position as the factory one.
