Aggressive 7-string Attitude

The JS22 Rhoads HT 7-string electric guitar gives you instant attitude, powerful low-end, and extended range — all at a great price! A resonant poplar body keeps this Rhoads lightweight and wallet-friendly while producing rich sonic detail and raucous sustain. The JS22 Rhoads’ smooth maple neck makes navigating 7-string changes a breeze. Factor in a compound-radius fingerboard and you’re ready to chord blissfully or shred with wild abandon. Moreover, two fiery Jackson humbucking pickups pump out snarling tones with zero hum, leaving you free to crank up the distortion and gain. Lastly, a string-thru-body and hardtail bridge provide exceptional sustain and reliability. This axe commands attention wherever you wield it. Say hello to your new weapon of choice: the JS22 Rhoads HT 7-string.

Compound-radius = the best of both worlds

The Jackson JS22 Rhoads HT 7-string sports a compound-radius amaranth fingerboard with jumbo frets. Down low, your fretting hand will appreciate the 12-inch radius that keeps things nice and comfortable for natural, relaxed chord work. Up top, a 16-inch radius lays it all out flat for effortless, low-action high-speed runs with monumental string bends without fretting out. The best of both worlds.

Maple neck and string-thru-body = prodigious sustain

From bow to stern, the Jackson Rhoads HT 7-string is set up for mammoth sustain. You get a maple speed neck — one of the hardest tonewoods around — and a string-thru-body tailpiece. Top that off with two attitude-laden high-output Jackson humbuckers with ceramic magnets, and you've got a recipe for serious sustain.

If looks could kill...

If you're after a guitar that looks as mean as it sounds, Sweetwater has your axe. The Rhoads body shape alone is enough to convey instant attitude. Throw in a distinctive pointy headstock and you've got one arresting-looking guitar. The Jackson JS22 Rhoads HT 7-string is one of the sharpest-looking guitars around; a serious axe wielder's instrument of destruction. Exactly what you've been looking for, right?
