I purchased a 1994 Jackson JRR-94 guitar with the Jackson hardshell case for next to nothing. I knew the guitar was not top of the line (or middle) but knowing that it was 12 years old, MIJ and NEVER played (still has the original strings on it!!) made me scoop it up to tinker with.
I ordered all the parts I need to pretty it up. I have a brass/gold V plate and control plate (custom made by Dave at fretsonthenet.com ) to install, also Dave made an "RR" engraved truss rod cover for me. I ordered gold pick up surrrounds and gold tuners (which should be here any day).
When the tuners and pickup surrounds come in I will disassemble the guitar, adjust the neck and reassemble it with all the new purty stuff and of course new GHS boomers. I also have Dimarzio SDH and a 500-XL to try in the bridge position. I am undecided on which one as I am tempted to uncover the great Bill Lawrence controversey !!! LOL
Anyhow...pics soon to follow. This MIJ Rhoads may turn into a good player and toy for me. If you need any parts custome made for your guitar...you HAVE to try fretsonthenet.com . Dave's stuff is incredible and he is extremely professional.
