Jackson USA Custom Shop Special Edition Rhoads Electric Guitar w/ Case - Vanilla Shake over 2 Tone Burst

The Jackson USA Custom Shop Special Edition Rhoads is a masterfully engineered, premium instrument meticulously hand-crafted by Jackson’s elite team of builders. Dressed in an incredible, deeply distressed Vanilla Shake over 2-Tone Sunburst Heavy Relic Tour finish, this iconic V-shaped guitar beautifully exposes layers of the two-tone burst beneath the vanilla top coat via extensive relic work for an authentic, road-worn aesthetic. Constructed with a highly resonant mahogany body, the Rhoads features a rock-solid caramelized maple neck-thru design with a scarf joint and graphite reinforcement rods for unrivaled physical stability and virtually endless sustain. The premium ebony fingerboard is bound in elegant ivoroid and features a versatile 12" to 16" compound radius. Outfitted with classic pearl sharkfin inlays and 22 jumbo frets, this neck yields low, lightning-fast action across the traditional 25.5" scale length. For a timeless yet aggressive tonal powerhouse, this Special Edition comes loaded with a calibrated set of passive Seymour Duncan humbuckers. A legendary JB sits in the bridge position paired with a '59 in the neck—both featuring classic all-black bobbins and nickel screws. This combination delivers everything from pristine, warm cleans to a scorching midrange crunch that easily cuts through any dense mix. The player-centric controls include an EVH 500k low-friction volume pot with a brass dome knob, an EVH 250k high-friction tone pot with a brass dome knob, and a 3-way toggle switch with a distinctive brass tip. The hardware package is strictly professional and built to endure the rigors of the road. It features a top-mounted 1984 chrome Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo system for expressive dive-bombs and rock-solid pitch stability. Complete with premium Gotoh tuning keys, an R3 locking nut, heavy-duty 17mm brass strap buttons, and a recessed brass output jack on the upper wing, this Rhoads is a tour-ready weapon that stands as a true testament to Jackson's Custom Shop mastery.
