looking for a "lightning ball" Rhoads....

[GuerillaPete]

Back in '98/'99 Drum City Guitarland had a CS Rhoads, with a one hum, rear control cavity and a "lightning ball" graphic.

Anyone know where/who has it?

Roodyrocker has it or at least one like and it kicks major ass! I'll have him post a few shots when he gets a chance!

Hi DrunkenMonkey, I bought a Lightning Ball Rhoads about 3 years ago. It came to me in mint shape with hang tag. The tag is dated Nov. 98 I believe. It has one hum (EMG), string thru, and 1 volume/1 tone control knob layout, black pickguard. I'll get some pics of it up over the weekend. Great axe to say the least!

Do you know the previous/original owner?

Yes, the guy had it up on E-Bay but I do not remember his name nor his E-Bay user name. I will post pictures of the actual guitar this weekend. I think its the coolest of the Lightning graphics.

Yeah, I wish I had bought it from DrumCity back in '98/'99. I regret not getting it. Oh well. Maybe our paths will cross again.

Re: looking for a \"lightning ball\" Rhoads....

Thats awesome except the center of the electric ball is freakin covered up by the pickup and it would look so much cooler without the cavity plate.!BOOOOOOOOOOO [img]/images/graemlins/eviltongue.gif[/img]

Re: looking for a \"lightning ball\" Rhoads....

Dude, that's sweet! Is the center always covered by the p/u, though?

That's the point. It looks like the pickup is electrifying the body and originates from the pickup. Much like the Zakk bullseye radiates outward from the bridge pickup. [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ] I agree. The bolts are suppose to be flowing from the pickup OUT, not a ball.
