Head-to-toe heavy-rock artistry
A glance at the Pro Plus Series Rhoads invokes heavy rock history's most iconic instrument design, and Sweetwater guitarists agree: Jackson has nailed every detail. By utilizing okoume wood for the body, the Pro Plus Series Rhoads is lighter than most, making it a stellar option as an onstage companion. A neck-through construction and speed neck profile make it even easier to navigate, making transitions up and down the 24-fret fingerboard a piece of cake. If that weren't enough, Jackson finalized the build in a unique oiled finish, ensuring a sightly sheen without threat of catching during play.
Outfitted in esteemed rock regalia
The Pro Plus Series Rhoads' finest features don't stop at its construction. A Floyd Rose 1000 series double-locking tremolo makes light work of massive dive-bombs. Meanwhile, your intonation remains incredibly stable, thanks to onboard Jackson sealed die-cast tuning machines and a Floyd Rose 1000 series locking nut. Pearloid shark fin inlays along the fretboard with luminlay side dots promote notational accuracy in even the darkest stage and studio environments. Topped off with locking strap buttons and dome-style control knobs, it's evident that Jackson took every detail into account when designing the Pro Plus Series Rhoads.
Superb Seymour Duncan pickup dynamo
Under the hood, the Pro Plus Series Rhoads packs serious tonal firepower. In the bridge position lies the Seymour Duncan Distortion TB-6 humbucker, known for its searing high output and articulation. A Duncan Distortion SH-6N completes the duo with a tight top-end with plenty of potential for distorted squeals. When paired with the Pro Plus Series Rhoad's onboard 3-way pickup switch and volume and tone knobs, you'll have the means to scour any heavy-duty tone from devious bottom-end licks to serious dive-bombing solos.
