Wow! Is it neck-thru and has binding and MOP inlays? If so, I'm buying one 100%!!

[Top Jimmy B]

Wow, that is really good news.

[kinde69]

AWESOME!!! THAT´s almost like my 24 fret USA RR which I ordered 2005...BTW: waiting that one to arrive...

[Jack Napalm]

All right, I don't want to hear any more whining about 24 fret Rhoads. These better fly off the shelves.

[mattsmusiccenter]

Get in touch if you want one... I'm ordering them today!

$1,750 for a pro-series? Twice the list of a DK2M, isn't that kinda high?

Which isn't to say that I don't want one, badly (white/black please). But that's even more higher than the KB Rhoads (which I also want LOL) list price.

MSRP on KB RR is pretty much the same, so I think the price of RR24 will be close to the price of KB RR.

Call a dealer and get their price on it. 1750 is MAP.

[mattsmusiccenter]

$1750.00 is list. MAP is probably around $1225.00.

[Kisonen]

Does it have binding on neck and headstock? Is that OFR or jt-580 bridge?

Since it will be built with the Pro series, I'll bet it's gonna be just like this:

Only with a real Floyd, a real EMG-81 and no preamp. It only makes sense since they already build a JacksonStars model....no new templates.

That's what I think anyways.

Yeah, I was thinking that too. And 1 11/16 inch nut width instead of 1 5/8 that is on RR-J2SP.

I guess I'll have to get RR24 too to keep company to my RR-J2SP .

[Jacksonite]

I have all three of them on order as well

[ExodusAttack]

Damn, that's awesome! So they basically did everything people bitched about the KB RR (different inlays, floyd rose), and made it into a new model?
