2008 Jackson Pro Series RR5 Randy Rhoads Ivory w/ Seymour Duncan & Case, Japan

$1,799.99

+ shipping

Up for sale, a 2008 Jackson Pro Series RR5 Randy Rhoads in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. This uncommon Japanese-made iteration of the Rhoads V features a pair of USA-made Seymour Duncan humbuckers, a string-through hardtail bridge, and a gloss Ivory finish accented by black pinstriping and gold hardware.

This RR5 Randy Rhoads features maple neck-through construction with alder body wings and a rosewood fretboard, resulting in excellent natural resonance and sustain. This guitar is loaded from the factory with a pair of JB SH-4/TB-4 humbuckers: Seymour Duncan’s most popular pickup of all time; the JB is the original hot-rodded humbucker. It’s a high output pickup, delivering a rich, versatile tone, with full and 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. This RR5 Randy Rhoads weighs 7lbs 1oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Ivory finish is accented by black pinstriping, and cosmetic wear on this RR5 Randy Rhoads is limited to a pair of small chips at the body points (a common occurrence on this aggressive body shape) some minor dings on the back, and patina through the gold plating on the control plate and knobs. The gloss on the neck profile is flawless.

The original black tolex hardshell case is included.
