  • What is the Difference between an RR1 and XTRR?

    [img]graemlins/help.gif[/img] Can anyone enlighten me on the differences between the RR1 and the Xtreme Rhoads? I don't believe I have ever seen an XTRR in person.

    Thanks!

    The immediately-identifiable characteristics of the XTRR are that it has a "Dinky Rhoads" size (7/8ths) and a reverse headstock.

        Here's some bald Canuck with a black XTRR:

          The body is actually a slightly different shape to a 7/8 Rhoads size - put the XTRR in front of a Rhoads and you'll see the difference, especially from the V area up to the top point.......The XTRR has reverse inlays and headstock, an unfinished neck, 1 vol and 3 way toggle and no scratchplate.....

            Also ,Jackson stopped making the xtrr as it was not a hot seller. Gotta go used or custom shop.

              Thanks Guys for the info. It is greatly appreciated. I was thumbing through the custom shop quote form and saw where that was an option and couldn't remember if I had ever run across one in the past.
              Thanks Again!

                  acually that is Daves guitar I was just molesting it , I'll never have the cash for something like that , and that finish is blk cherry he has emg 81's [that I installed last year] in there now instead of the invader / full shred set that was in there . and that guitar is the prototype for the usa select line xtrr's that came out a couple of years a go for a short while [so it is a customshop and says so on the headstock , as far as the prototype Kevin Easton told us that ans sold Dave that guitar when he still was in charge at Jackson/amic], doesn't look like there is much of a difference but when you play it it does seem quite a bit smaller than a normal rr , it feels that way to me anyway , I don't think Dave notices it that much he said but I do , compared to my old rr ex I had and the rr1's I have played and the pro rr's . very nice if your intrested in one and worth every dime . //Steve

                      A guitar without a headstock just looks wrong to me. It looks incomplete.

                          The XTRR's neck is the best feature. As far as size of the person playing it goes, I think it's irrelevant. It's still a 25 1/2 scale guitar with great balance, just a more streamlined look.

                          I notice allot of the big guys feel they need a big guitar, but Steinbergers have almost no body and that doesn't stop this dude ... [img]graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

                            it's not Steve's. It's Dave's.
