    I am planning to save up and buy a Jackson RR-1. But the only flaw it has is that it is only a 22 fret. Does anyone know how much it would cost to get a new 24 fretboard with sharkfin inlays? As well as the labor for switching them? Thanks.

    You're out of luck. You can not change a Neck-thru I believe. And I don't think there are any good jackson RRs with 24 frets.

    Do you really need 24 frets? I thought the same as you but then I got my RR-10X and I'm happy with every single fret of those 22. :D
