The asymmetrical Rhoads-style V body, reverse shark-fin fingerboard inlays, black hardware, angular control plates, and natural-finished maple neck give it a distinctive look that immediately stands out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe internal neck markings identify this example as an \u003cb\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRR-CU50Q\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, with the “RR” designation corresponding to the Rhoads body style and the “Q” identifying the quilted-top variation.

It is currently playing great with low action and a fast, comfortable feel up and down the neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis model features a bolt-on maple neck, rosewood fingerboard, 24 frets, reverse shark-fin inlays, dual humbuckers, and a fixed Tune-o-matic-style bridge with string-through-body construction. The fixed bridge provides excellent tuning stability and makes this a great alternative for players who want the aggressive look and feel of a Japanese Rhoads model without a locking tremolo system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe guitar is equipped with a white humbucker in the neck position and a Duncan Designed humbucker in the bridge position. Both pickups and all electronics are functioning properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOverall, the guitar is in good condition, especially considering its age. There are a lot of scratches and dings into the wood on both the front back and sides. I had a hard time capturing them in the photos but the last several photos I shined into the lights so you could get a better idea what I'm talking about. There is also a small finish chip near the neck joint, as shown in the photos. Nothing negatively affects the structure, functionality, or playability of the guitar. The frets remain in very good condition with plenty of life remaining.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlso included is a very nice molded Jackson hard case specifically designed to accommodate the V-shaped body. These fitted molded cases are difficult to find separately and add considerable value to the package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA rare and visually striking late-’90s Japanese Grover Jackson with a beautiful quilted finish, excellent playability, fixed-bridge construction, and a proper molded Jackson hard case.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCase: Jackson Molded Case\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale Length: 25.5“\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNut Width: 1.62“\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAction at 12F (6th): .06“\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAction at 12F (1st): .05“\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWeight: 6lbs 11oz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOverall Condition: 7\/10\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCool Factor: 11 out of 10\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUSA Seller, check my feedback to see how I value my customers and see my other listings for more rare Japanese Guitars and other unique gear!
