Up for sale, a 2001 Jackson Stars Randy Rhoads model RR-175 in showroom clean, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with hangtags. A rare Japanese domestic market model, the Jackson Stars instruments are the direct descendants of the Grover Jackson line, expertly crafted at the Chu Shin factory. Premium features include neck-through construction, a pair of Seymour Duncan pickups, and gold hardware including the Schaller Floyd Rose-licensed tremolo.

Tonewoods include a maple neck, ash body wings, maple top, and a 24-fret striped ebony fretboard. The neck-through construction ensures ample natural sustain, and the USA-made Seymour Duncan pickup complement includes an SH-4 JB at the neck and a TB-5 Custom Trembucker at the neck. The JB is Seymour Duncan’s most popular design of all time and the original hot-rodded humbucker, offering powerful lows, crisp and detailed highs, and an upper-midrange bump that adds crunch and chunk to heavy chords and translates to a singing, vocal-like quality for melodic playing. The TB-5 Custom Trembucker at the bridge has an aggressive, focused midrange, potent treble attack, and exceptional sustain, perfect for screaming solos. This Randy Rhoads RR-175 weighs 7lbs 10oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, slinky action, and accurate intonation.
