Aluminum Roswell Rhoades

[jvbjr]

I bit the bullet and purchased the original Roswell this weekend.

It is in transit, about four days away I'd guess.

Who has one? How does it sound, only one review on HC.

Our band has a planet/space theme logo so I thought it would fit right in.

Welcome to the board. get ready to catch the flack for not spelling "Rhoads" right. Kind of sacreligious around here. [img]graemlins/poke.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

I got that spelling from Ed Roman, look here:

I thought maybe Jackson had to spell it wrong for some sort of legal issue. I knew Randy did not use the spelling I used, but I did not know if the Roswell was momma Rhoads approved or not.

I had one. Definitely a 'Collector's Guitar' IMO - it sounds like a Dobro. Doesn't sound bad plugged in, but the amp's gotta be loud enough to cover the acoustic properties.

Welcome to the board anyway, and congrats on the Roswell. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Don't forget:
Aluminum Roswell Rhoads guitars were never meant to be played and expect to sound good for rock.... they are only for show and collectability.

Re: Aluminum Roswell Rhoades

I agree, the Roswell isn't really a player but it would sure look good in my collection. Very collectable but you certainly pay for that very attribute. Newc on this board has an import Roswell that might be more of a player. He has it at a really nice price too. Check out the classifieds section. Welcome aboard ..Can you swim??
