i played one of the old jetkings a while back, they look amazing, but it rattled when you pick it up, had no kind of guts to it, felt flimsy and the neck was complete crap. i really hope the new ones are better than that.

I bought one today. Neck is 3 piece but not bad. I liked it. I can't see what made of body but it's too heavy i could say. I'm sure it's lots of pieces too. =)
Pickups are interesting. Soapbar pickups. I had never used before so i try to get used to it. I don't like them a lot yet.

Neck is very comfortable. I'm planning to change knobs, if i could find something torquose. =P
Tone knob don't have much effect, not as much as a hum pick's tone knob. I guess it's because of the quality of pickup. Bridge is cool, nice sustain. That's all for now. =)
I should take it to a luthier or change by myself but i should adjsut the truss rod.
And I don't know how to adjust soapbar pickup height. Any help will be nice. =/

Why would you buy a guitar id the body is too heavy and you don't like the pickups?

Well, i'm not used to use a heavy guitar but habbits can change; can't they?
And i get used to it. I started to like it. =)

Fair enough.
I didn't mean that as a criticism or anything, it just seemed odd that you'd buy it whilst having these rather serious gripes with it.

I agree with rob about the neck. The fret markers look dumb and I hate the way that the black headstock
looks with the green.
