  • Rhoads RR5

    Anyone have opinions on the Rhoads RR5?

    I just bought one and will receive it early next week. New, old stock for a decent price. Ivory with black pinstripes. In the early 80's I had a large picture of Randy's guitar like this hung in my locker in high school. So even though it's not my "normal" style of guitar anymore, I'm pretty stoked about it.

              I had a RR5 not many months ago. A really good guitar, only thing I missed about it was a Floyd. But I sold it to buy another guitar [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img]

                I received the RR5 yesterday, no pics yet but I'll have some in a couple of days. It'll take some time getting use to the shape, but it's already very comfortable to play standing up. I did a full setup and it plays great, holds tune, etc.

                My only complaint is that the pickups aren't level with the strings. The pickup bezels should be angled, but they're flat thus the pickups are at an angle to the strings. Mild irritation, but it gave me a good excuse to order gold angled bezels. They should look great on it. I'm still surprised that they were built like that though.
