Imports:
have bolton maple necks w/ rosewood fretboards.
WRXT & WRMG both are routed for a liscensed FLoyd
JS30 Warrior is routed for string thru body tunomatic bridge

USA:
Maple neckthru neck design w/ ebony fretboard

Dimensions I believe are the same & I think all are made of alder wood. Of course the USA has alder wings & a maple center block (piece).

Re: warrior body help please!

the Imports are not ply wood or particle board. Jackson uses alder , poplar, or bass wood. you have no worries on the import body. unless it's a wrxt made in India , then it's like mystery meat! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: warrior body help please!

-WRMG bodies have 3 knob holes and a blade switch cutout, plus the battery box in the back.

-WRXT bodies have 2 knob holes and a 3-way toggle hole (larger round hole between the Volume and Tone holes).

-JS30WR bodies, as was said, have T.O.M.s.

-Older Indian-made WRXT bodies have the output jack mounted on the edge of the lower rear horn like this:

I think they were Cedro, which is a type of Mahogany, though not as prized as African or Honduran Mahogany.
