This guitar started its life as an original USA RR1 Student model. When it came to us initially it had been previously modified with a Kahler and middle pickup route. We decided to bring this back to its original state while embracing the unique 3-pickup setup with a few tweaks. With some help from our connections, we sourced an NOS original bridge & tailpiece, had Bareknuckle make us a custom set of aged gold pickups and sent the body off to Mike Learn for a full Refin. Before Starting the refin he striped the paint and puzzle pieced a piece of maple into the kahler route. Then to some vintage inspired graphics with classic pinstripes with unique faded gold snake skin bevels. Once Finished this Guitar spent the last few years with one of the biggest jackson collectors in the country before making it's way back to us!

This guitar is in overall good condition. There are some scuffs on the back of the neck near the headstock and around the 12th fret. The body has some light surface marks throughout and there are some small dings and scuffs around the points. The gold hardware has lightly oxidized over time and the new gold parts were aged to match. There are some light finish separation spots on the neck and headstock. The top fins point has a small chip at the front tip. One case latch is broken. (See pics)

Guitar is freshly setup and restrung with 9-42 strings. Includes Original Hard Shell Case.
