Want opinion on Jackson USA "Randy Rhoads" Signature Flying V

[dogueboy]

I am looking at a Jackson USA "Randy Rhoads" Signature Flying V. The guitar is made at the made in the san dimas factory. It is a 85-86 model year it is a neck through model. The guy says it is about a 8.5 out of 10 as far as condition. what do you think the value of this guitar would be worth? I am working on getting the serial number. I am going to look at it this week. Any help would be great.

i wonder why he took out the "made in san dimas" line when he relisted it for $150 less....

I just saw it on craigslist but that is the same guitar.

When I hear san dimas factory I think Charvel.

Looks like a student model..

if it is USA. it looks likeit has a rosewood board. At least it doesn in those pics. And wouldnt 85-86 make it a possable Ontario made piece?

Still waiting on more pics and serial number

I've talked to the guy about it; the Floyd was installed a few years ago. Before, it only had the string-thru tailpiece, which has been left on in the pics.

It is a student model, I have talked to him a couple times. There's an ad about it here somewhere and the consensus was it was about $600-800 value-wise. Seems like a decent guitar, im just holding out for sharkfins for my next USA rhoads!

[Drazden]

Yeah; if it was stock, with the string-thru intact, I'd pay $800 for it, but modded with the Floyd, it's worth less. He's had it on there for a while, though; he's probably ready to get rid of it.

That's still a hot guitar - if I were in the market for a Floyd'ed RR I'd offer him 700 and see what he says

[dogueboy]

I think it could be had for about that right now.

Serial number rr1064

[Drazden]

'85... Hmm.... If you think 700's worth it, then go for it. If the Floyd was installed by someone credible, then it'll work really well.

[rocksoldier]

Just make sure that the floyd was professionally installed, not like my friends modded 70s strat which was impossible to intonate.

It should be a kickass guitar if everything's ok.
