The Jackson Pro Series Rhoads models continue the metal legacy pioneered by the immortal Randy Rhoads. Over the last three decades, metal has evolved dramatically, and today's metal calls for a hotter, more aggressive tone than ever before.

With its Ivory finish, black pinstripes and gold hardware, the RRT-3 is an elegantly formidable V-shaped axe loaded with supercharged features including a mahogany body, graphite-reinforced through-body maple neck with scarf joint and an ultra-smooth oiled back finish. Its bound 12"-16" ebony fingerboard hosts 22 jumbo frets and pearloid sharkfin inlays.

Chosen specifically for their incredible sound, a pair of modern Seymour Duncan® Distortion humbucking pickups drives this guitar's voice, combining for highly balanced, flexible tone, with plenty of high output for pristine cleans and snarling distortion. This guitar also features three-way toggle pickup switching and a Jackson® compensated and adjustable TOM-style bridge with anchored tailpiece.

Miscellaneous

Neck-Through-Body with Graphite Reinforcement and Scarf Joint: True neck-through-body construction has been a Jackson hallmark since 1980, allowing for greater playability and sustain. Neck-through is a method of guitar construction which involves extending the piece (or pieces) of wood used for the neck through the entire length of the body. Graphite reinforcement rods flanking the truss rod provide even more neck stability to help the instrument withstand the rigors of the road.
