Jackson Pro RRT3 Rhoads EB IBP

The Pro series of the American brand Jackson represents professional quality electric guitars designed for the general musician public. Instruments with typical company design, quality workmanship and great playing qualities can still be purchased at a price that won't break your budget. Specifically, the Rhoads models offer the popular Flying V body shape, while also referencing the great guitarist Randy Rhoads, who loved to play the "V".

The construction of the Pro Series Rhoads RRT-3 EB IBP electric guitar consists of a mahogany body and a through-neck made from a single piece of maple with graphite bracing. This design has a positive effect on the sustain of the instrument. The ebony fingerboard is fitted with twenty-two jumbo-sized frets. Its combined radius flattens towards the body - allowing both comfortable riff playing at the zero fret and comfortable ultra-fast shred in higher positions. Position markers made of imitation Sharkfin pearl make it easy to navigate its surface.

Two Seymour Duncan Distortion humbuckers with ceramic magnets and high output signal provide the instrument's sound with the necessary fullness, dynamics and precise articulation for singing solos or chord breakdowns, while also providing the density and aggression for ultra-fast guitar shred and sharply chiseled rock and metal riffs. Volume potentiometers, tone controls and a three-position pickup switch are used for sonic adjustments. Precise tuning and good sustain are ensured by string attachment through the body via a fully adjustable tailpiece (TOM style) and the company's Die-Cast mechanics. The guitar's interesting design is accentuated by gold hardware and an Ivory finish with contrasting black lines.

For several decades, electric guitars from the American brand Jackson have appealed primarily to musicians from metal, metal/core, HC or djent bands who profess a loud sound with a more or less diluted dose of aggression, as evidenced by the company's list of players. However, the radical metal design can also enchant adventurous musicians from the completely opposite musical spectrum, as evidenced, for example, by Nai Palm of Hiatus Kaiyote, who in turn clearly prove that the sound of Jackson instruments can make its way into genres built on a clean, warm, sound.
