I've got a line on what appears to be a Rhoads Pro. Supposedly, it has an ebony board and OFR and neck binding. The seller tells me the S/N is 9725145. Could this be a Rhoads Pro from the early 90's? Or are these "specs" a load of crap?

Nope...
That number syntax is not a Rhoads Pro [or any 1990-95 Pro] number. My 1990 ex-Soloist Pro was J001337, where the first "0" is the year [199"0"]. This was similar for all the neck thru Pro Series guitars, again 1990-95. And the Pro Series came with Schaller Floyds, not OFR's. Hope this helps.

Thanks, yeah I do believe the jackass seller just copied and pasted the USA RR1 specs into his listing.Originally posted by RacerX View Post_________________________________________________

I'd hafta see pics, but offhand I'd say he doesn't know what he's got. It is possible he replaced the neck with a 22 fret USA neck that has an ebony board and binding, and put on an OFR, but it's improbable.I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood
