[EDIT - I'm so burnt out]
I've had this for over 3 years - not 1-1/2. Yikes! And never photographed it until now. Well, here ya go. You have Bob to thank for making me snap some pics. She was in a pawn shop in CT when a buddy alerted me to the auction. Overall, nice player. Some minor tip scars: top wing mostly and a small one to the back of the headstock tip, otherwise she be clean:

[Sorry Bob, not for sale/trade at the moment. But you have first dibs if/when I do]



Kinda hard to photograph the metallic red finish - especially at 1am coming home from a show, but here's a close-up:


Tip with a mediocre touch-up:

Very nice!

Word!!!! I almost would resort to sexual favors on that one!

You just had a real baby, Bob. Don't think you want a 'butt-baby'.


Bob, don't you have same RR but as a 2-hum?

[GuerillaPete]

Very nice!

Thanks Neilli. Figured a V-connoisseur, such as yourself, would dig the matching painted face on the headstock.

Damaged tips aside (meh, shit happens) that is f'in hot!

I look at that and think, this guitar is just built to rock people's faces off, plain and simple.

What pickup is in it?

[kermitz]

Beautiful RR. The chips in the paint just give it character.

[Devotee]

It's very rare (read: pretty much impossible) to come across a second hand RR without damaged tips. That is one of the nicest looking RRs i've seen, so simple and clean.

I haven't pulled it out to check, but it does sound like a JB to me. Might get changed to something hotter.

[Corpsegrinder88]

Ah you let me worry about that pete! LOL

[j2379]

that is the PERFECT Rhoads.

[toejam]

Very nice! Would be nicer if it were rear-routed, though.

Great guitar..Its weird about the tips. I hae owned a bunch of Rhoads over the years and NEVER chipped a wing, but every used one has damaged tips. What the hell do people do to them?

-They rock out so hard they forget how long that top wing is and it gets slammed into walls, drums, mic stands, amps, lead singers, etc

-Not everybody has the correct stand for RRs, leading to damage

If that guitar was a pancake, it would be a very good pancake.
