Jackson Concept Series Rhoads RR24 HS Electric Guitar (White/Black Pinstripes)

General

The Jackson Rhoads has been thrashing the metal scene since 1981, and the latest Concept Series is no exception. This model mimics the white paint job and pin-striped detailing of the OG Concorde and brings the modern perks of an HS configuration. Chic, elegant, and bearing a level of precision worthy of a katana sword, the Jackson Concept Series Rhoads RR24 has been built on the solid foundation of an alder body with a neck-through-construction completed by an ultra-stable three-piece maple neck. The ebony fretboard has been fully decked out with a set of inlaid sharkfin position markers to echo the brutal body shape and matched pointed headstock. As befits an instrument of this pedigree, every bit of hardware, including the Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo bridge, has been coated in gold.

The Jackson Concept Series Rhoads: A God Among Guitars

While the Rhoads has gone through a long list of iterations, every example still holds true to master-guitarist Randy Rhoads' original concept, so you can be absolutely certain that every inch of the RR24 breathes class and that no compromise has been made when it comes to playability. The acclaimed compound fretboard radius gradually flattens the closer you get to the body, so notes can be grabbed and bent with ease further up, and chords and riffs are supported by snug grip further down, resulting in a smooth and agile feel along the entire length of the neck. Since it more-than proved itself back in the eighties, the Seymour Duncan JB humbucker planted at the bridge needs no further introduction, while the Seymour Duncan Hot Rails single-coil mounted at the neck provides an entirely different sonic contrast. Toggle the three-way selector switch to combine or isolate the pickups and split open a can of variable profiles to support everything from fierce, earth-shattering leads to fat, cream-filled rhythms.
