Jackson Pro Plus Pure Metal Rhoads RR1A Electric Guitar - Satin Black

Inspired by the radical shape and fearless approach that made Randy Rhoads an icon, the Jackson Pro Plus Pure Metal limited-edition Rhoads RR1A electric guitar is built for players who demand speed, control and unmistakable attitude. Its sharp poplar body with single-ply binding stays true to the aggressive lines that defined the original Rhoads design, paired with a fast three-piece maple neck that encourages confident movement. A Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo invites expressive pitch work while maintaining tuning stability, supporting the kind of aggressive vibrato and dive techniques closely associated with the model’s legacy. Along the ebony fingerboard, 24 jumbo stainless steel frets and a compound radius feel support clean articulation across the neck, while a Bare Knuckle Boot Camp Holy Diver humbucker delivers the clarity and drive needed to push riffs and solos off the rails with authority.

Bare Knuckle Humbucker Delivers Commanding Metal Tone

At the core of the Pro Plus Pure Metal Rhoads RR1A is a Bare Knuckle Boot Camp Holydiver humbucker voiced for output and definition. Clean passages retain clarity while high-gain tones cut through dense mixes with authority. The pickup responds closely to picking dynamics, making it equally effective for tight rhythm work and expressive lead phrasing. This balance gives players a focused sound that stays articulate under pressure.

Floyd Rose Tremolo Supports Expressive Technique

A Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo provides the stability required for aggressive pitch work. Dive bombs, flutters and wide vibrato techniques remain controlled thanks to consistent string tension and reliable tuning return. The recessed bridge design helps maintain comfortable action, allowing players to explore expressive techniques without sacrificing precision during a set.

Ebony Fingerboard and Stainless Steel Frets Promote Speed

The compound radius ebony fingerboard shifts from a 12" curve at the nut to a flatter 16" radius toward the upper frets, supporting fast movement and accurate bends. Jumbo stainless steel frets resist wear from repeated use while maintaining a smooth feel. This combination helps players execute complex solos with confidence, especially during extended high-speed passages.

Durable Construction Built for Touring Demands

A three-piece maple neck reinforced with graphite rods adds strength and long-term stability. The satin-finished poplar body keeps weight manageable for long rehearsals and performances. Luminlay side dots improve visibility on dark stages, while sealed die-cast tuners help maintain tuning consistency. Together, these elements support reliability through travel, practice and live shows.

A Limited-Edition Take on the Rhoads Legacy

Designed for players who connect with Randy Rhoads’ fearless style and technical precision, the limited-edition Pro Plus Pure Metal Rhoads RR1A offers a fast feel, stable tuning and aggressive voice suited for demanding music.
