  • Jackson nuclear

    Hey guys, recently i aqquired this dream.
    What Do you guys think of it?
    It appears to be the prototype of the 10 nuclears (they habe no Signature, but headstock and Controlplate Finished too).
    Here you can See it on reverb, it is just this guitar.

      I would start by offering my Start-o-caster to see if he would bite.

        That is nice! What did you trade for it?

        Personally the Rhoads shape is not my cup of tea, and I generally prefer non-graphic finishes, so it's hard to say what I would trade for it. I see that guitar as a normal RR1 with a special graphic, EMG-81/85, and a battery box installed. So if I had a comparable USA guitar that had a special finish (or a USA Custom Select that had features that the Rhoads owner wanted) and I was a big fan of the Rhoads shape, that would be an equal trade. If the Rhoads owner was willing to trade for a normal USA Select, you would actually come out slightly ahead, thanks to the nuclear graphic.

          Thank you!
          I offered my USA BC Rich Ironbird, and choice between the DK1 and DR2, guy adored the weight and the "blackness" as well as the reversed headstock, so i kept the dk1. So now i am the proud owner of a graphic Fusion and this nuclear rr, sls, the other rr as well a few japanese ones. Actually i am waiting for an kv4 platin, which o traded my Ltd AX 400 for.

            I found some Info Here, from about 2006, one of the nuclears was said to have an U serial, and those have the headstock and Controlplate Finished too. After namm a few of those were at Matts apparently, at least too were tracked to Europa "Musikmesse".

            Mine has a serial starting with JA and Black Headstock with Custom Shop Logo, also mine has the Signature from Mike learn which the others do not have. But in the reverb link i posted you can See there was a sticker at the headstock "J4" or sth..
            I heard it was the prototype for this Limited run.
            The previous owner contacted Mike aswell and praised his fast reaction.
            I really would Like to Find out more about this guitar.

              JA is supposed to be stamped on archtops. They made a mistake with yours. They've made mistakes in the past and stamped the wrong letters on boards, it happens sometimes.
              I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

                So Mike Learn answered and said this one is the prototype he made for the run of 10.
                Great from hin to respond immediately.
                Maybe that explains at least the "J" of the serial.
                I forgot to post one of the 10 before :
