Is the Jackson JS30RR randy rhoads really designed by randy?

Question

Jackson JS30RR Rhoads

is it really designed by randy..cause im thinking about buying one..and if anyone else owns one of these..tell me what you like and dislike about it

Answer 1

The original RR model was designed by Randy but he only got to enjoy two of the guitars before he died, Sean Clegg (Grounded For Life) owns #3 which was handmade by Grover Jackson.  I have a RR-3 pro and i like it although it came with Duncan Designed pickups which sucked so I loaded it with DiMarzios (Fred and Mo'Joe) and now it sounds great.  If you like floyd roses and you don't mind standing up to play then it's an awesome instrument.

Answer 2

No, Randy had no input into the actual design and only ever saw a prototype just before his death. He played Karl Sandova V style guitars mostly, along with a white Les Paul Custom

Plus they are very impractical as the top point can be damaged very easily. And they're all looks.
