If you're around this area, you've probably seen me at GC.

Should be '95 maybe '96. They were initially Korean, but production moved to Japan shortly after. Can't be 100% accurate, but I'd say the Korean models lasted a year or two.
I can't promise you'll find anything on a Korean model, but if you remove the neck and check the pocket/neck heel you may find date stamps.Leave a comment:

The tuners are just standard Jackson.... Jackson tuners are great I have nothing bad to say about them, they just have some slop and i'm suspecting a couple of bad ones, and needed a reason to explore other tuners . I am custom ordering this Floyd Rose from their site, I have to be 100% on whether it's an R2/ R3 nut there is no sending it back for a refund. A new nut is included and I always use all the new stuff, old nut will be placed with its trem and sold for what it is... cheap. I was going to package the trem with the pickups and call it 100.00 bucks. The trem arm is one of those threaded screw in types and comes with. As far as pups I was thinking 57/66 EMG's as I have 2 sets of 81/85's installed in other guitars. I'm not real big on Seymour Duncans especially after the Dave Mustaine set ( that's a long story). I have plenty of time to tinker with this project. MIK , got it! anyway to get more specific on the year? I could check Scottyguitars and Audiozone on my day off I guess. Thanks for the help.

Why change the nut? Just leave in the one that's there. Ditto the tuners - Jackson tuners are great.Leave a comment:

I had a MIJ PS3-T quite a while ago. On a few parts, you may have problems.. The bridge is a JT500 which is a cheap version of the JT590/Schaller with the thick baseplate. Other than one of those, you may have trouble fitting anything else correctly. Should be a 32mm block tho. The nut on imports is a different height (shorter I think) so if you get a Schaller (FR, probably R3) one, you'll have to modify. The tuners should be Gotoh (maybe marked JIN-HO) and should be good quality. But you have a locking nut anyway so why change tuners? It had a F spaced JB in the neck and a F spaced Custom in the bridge? You could probably trade them easily for EMG's (even to me...). Good luck..Leave a comment:

Just got a Jackson PS3-T Rhodes for a project
I found a good deal on a Jackson Rhodes PS3-T Performer ( serial on neck plate 1048075 ) assuming this is the correct neck 22 frets dots. I picked it up in a local music store it's been there for YEARS! Nice project for me, brought it home gutted it, had Seymour Duncan TB4 Neck , TB5 Bridge , lic Jackson Floyd , Jackson tuning machines ( all of which I am selling on the cheap). Going to put the best of the best back in it custom ordered Floyd and EMG's ( I'm an EMG whore!) has some dings in the body but neck is flawless, have a friend that's agreed to do some custom airbrushed paint and graphics. Anyway, can you guys give me a hand, need the nut size , Trem Block size and year model figured out.Thanks for the help in advance.
