I am 38 and I still lust after guitars like this. The best I have is my jap Jackson , it's a realy nice guitar to play though.

It will have you playing faster than you ever thought you could. And regarding the floyd rose , once set up they dont go out of tune and are no problems at all. Just dont think you can change tuneings without setting the whole thing up again. And dont change strings just before a gig or band prac. You need to give them a day to settle.
i work hard to pay for my toys!!!

jap jackson's are pretty good these days, i almost picked one up mid last year, but decided to spend the money on something else!! and the V is sweet. any custom/self made guitars rule hard in my book.

i love playing my mates jackson's or LTD/ESP's etc. i play a lot of heavy metal, and whilst i can play plenty of fast death metal on my gibson/Epi, i dunno, i just want to play faster again and i find it easier to sweep on these sorts of guitars, i just cant get it nailed on my current gear :P
