  • Just scored an RR Pro!!!

    This makes me super excited. I've just scored what I think is a bargain on an RR Pro. Not mint and has cosmetic wear but that doesn't worry me. I can't wait to get my hands on it to see if it really lives up to its reputation.

    Just out of interest, what does an RR Pro go for second hand in the States these days? I'm getting this one for $700 NZ dollars w/case - which is on a good day probably slightly under $500 USD. I think it's definitely a good price for NZ though, the last time I had a Kelly XL I got at least $1000 NZD for it.

    Pics as soon as I get it!

    Coincidentally although I've owned a number of Jacksons over the years, Vs, Dinkys, Kellys, I've never owned a Rhoads before!

    Congrats! I'm gonna say in the US they are going between 5 - 9 bills depending on condition & extras.

      I am betting all my guitars that the second numerical digit in the serial is "0".
      Tell me where I stand when it arrives

            I am cracking the serial code for the early imports (or thinking I am)

            Thanks on the kind words, slash-ed and fingers crossed for a safe transit and a fine example of a Rhoads Pro.

                  Yeah, I got one: are Danes still embarrassed by "Reptilicus" after all these years?

                      LOL, never heard of it. American produced and shot in Denmark, impressive. Don't watch the trailer, though...
