I have just bought two more, One will be painted by a friend of mine with a picture of randy on it, a pencil drawing effect. The other one I'm having converted to a trem system. at only £200 a piece I can't really go wrong.

I know a lot of people will frown at this as they see shine as a cheap import company but the true is the company have been the OEM producers for epiphone for the last 13 years. The guitar in question is the SR1 and features the following = white with black pin strip mahogany body with set mahogany neck, gold hardware and two EMG HZ pickups. I picked mine up cause it looks closer to randy's original than most of the jacksons more than twice the price. It plays like a dream and sounds great (finally sounds the solo in mr crowley) the body shape is the closest I've see without paying mega money,I Only paid £180 for it. I've actually retired my RR3 cause I just find this so much better. Anybody looking a decent Version should give it a try.


Those dont look like Randy's guitars. The headstock is different.

That guitar looks awesome. It's just too bad USA doesn't get any "Shine" aside from the moonshine that makes americans so rude and vulgar. :?

uh...was that an insult?
are you french?
Lol, not at all. Just a joke from a fellow american stating that we should get some Shine guitars, though we probably don't due to the fact the guitar shape is patented by Jackson. And no, I'm not french.
