Jackson X Series Rhoads RRX24, Red with Black Bevels - Secondhand

Full Description

The One and Only

Randy Rhoads. One of the most phenomenal guitar players of our time, his career may have been cut tragically short, but his legacy lives on through music. Rhoads' famous neo-classical style and insane technical skill have reserved him a place in rock and metal's history books, and his signature Jackson pays homage to this. Packed with quality features, it has more than enough potential to create an absolutely massive sound and bring out your inner Randy Rhoads.

Bold Blackouts

Crisp, punchy, severe. Seymour Duncan Blackouts in the neck and bridge of this guitar give it a superbly powerful sound. Their ultra high output means that high gain settings are searing and saturated, capable of delivering an intense sonic experience. The bridge humbucker gives tightness crunch, and treble to each note you play, which is perfect for attack-heavy metal-style chugging and crushing chords. The neck pickup also has a strong treble response as well as boosted bass for that perfect saturated lead tone and precision when playing fast solos. As such, this guitar has more than enough firepower to launch your sound into the stratosphere.

Precision Playing

Magnificent maple. The neck through nature of this guitar gives it a huge sustain boost, so you can keep your notes ringing for longer. The one piece maple construction of the neck lends itself to fast, efficient playing, with a gloss finish for additional smoothness. It also offers a good level of sustain as being reinforced with graphite for increased stability. With a laurel fingerboard underneath your fingertips, each fret will feel smooth and accessible, so you can be as creative as you like with your riffs.

Fit for a King

Modern craftmanship. The RRX24 is equipped with some industry leading hardware for incredible durability and insanely powerful performance capability. The Floyd Rose Special Double Locking bridge allows for insane divebombs, whilst ensuring your tuning remains steady. The locking nut works in conjunction with this, holding your tuning effectively when you use the whammy bar. Topped off with Jackson sealed die-cast tuners and a red with black bevels finish, this Randy Rhoads signature is a supreme tribute to its namesake.
