Also I don't think you'll find these early Rhoads models with factory installed EMGs unless it was a custom order. These were catered to Randy's specs since it was his model and at that time more people wanted it like his, so......MORE »

Haha I just looked, no it doesn't have it on the 1st fret. Weird I didn't notice that lol. I didn't replace the pickups, but it seems like they were added in the 80s shortly after. Jackson those days came with SDs and Kirk......MORE »

Here's a link to the serial numbers for Jackson, and a link to a forum mentioning the logo evolution. Mine is in the early 1000s, so I think mine might be earlier than Kirk's, but the inlaid logo didn't appear on Jackson's......MORE »

Thanks man, yea I was surprised it still had the original case as well, and glad they didn't get rid of it over the years. It's not in the greatest shape either but it's still holding it's own lol. But that's when I knew it......MORE »

Thanks, yea I know it's in great condition for it's age. It didn't have any dings on it which made me happy, though there are still some light surface marks after my tech buffed it out, but overall I'm pretty happy with......MORE »

Thanks, you can thank my guitar tech for that. I had him take off all the hardware and pretty much buff out any dull areas and surface scratches, and he did an amazing job! Even cleaning the hardware and polishing the frets......MORE »
