lol that reminds me of an edroman article. i'm not actually interested in kevin bond because i personally think his music sucks, but the design of the guitar is really what caught my eye.

I would do that except a jackson custom costs upwards of 5000 or more and I am purchasing this guitar mostly for the inlays too. I recently calculated the cost of building this on my own and found out it would still cost more. I will determine whether or not i like the fine tune tail piece when i buy the guitar and if the cost is closer to 1000 i will just buy another guitar, which i am not too opposed to but i just fell in love with my friends new 2000 dollar US RR1, which includes a floyd rose original.

Hey in the near future I plan on buying a Jackson Kevin Bond Signature Rhoads guitar and I was wondering if it was possible and how much it would cost to convert it to a floyd rose original bridge. some pros and cons of this if possible too. The Guitar itself will cost $1189 USD heres some pictures specs: MODEL NAME Jackson Kevin Bond Signature Rhoads MODEL NUMBER 290-0500-(599) and 290-0501-(599) SERIES Pro Series Artist Signature COLORS 290-0500-(599) Black with Blood Red Bevels, (BBRB), 290-0501-(599) Black with Flourescent Green Bevels, (BFGB), Gloss Polyester Finish BODY Mahogany NECK Neck-Thru-Body Mahogany NECK DIMENSIONS 3rd Fret: .790”, 12th Fret: .850” TUNING MACHINES Die-Cast Tuners FINGERBOARD Ebony NO.
