The Jackson American Series Rhoads RR24 HT in Satin Black is a precision-engineered instrument designed for the modern metal player seeking speed, stability, and aggressive tone. Crafted in the USA at Jackson’s Corona, California factory, this guitar combines premium materials with expert craftsmanship to deliver a powerful performance tool that excels in both the studio and on stage. Its iconic offset Rhoads alder body not only looks striking but also offers resonant, lively tone that cuts through any mix.
At the heart of the RR24 HT is a neck-through-body three-piece maple neck reinforced with graphite, ensuring exceptional stability and sustain. The 24 jumbo stainless-steel frets sit on a 12″-16″ compound radius ebony fingerboard, allowing effortless bending and precise playability across the entire neck. Equipped with USA-made Seymour Duncan JB and ’59 humbuckers, this guitar delivers a versatile tonal palette—from thick, roaring distortion to smooth, singing leads—perfect for metal and beyond.
The Hipshot hardtail bridge provides rock-solid tuning stability and makes string changes or drop tunings quick and easy, while premium hardware such as Gotoh locking tuners and Dunlop dual-locking strap buttons ensure reliability during intense performances. Visually, the RR24 HT commands attention with its reverse 6-in-line headstock, mother of pearl inverted sharkfin inlays, and a sleek satin black finish that complements its aggressive design.
For players who demand a shred machine built for speed, precision, and uncompromising tone, the Jackson American Series Rhoads RR24 HT stands as a top-tier choice.
Neck-Through-Body Construction
The three-piece maple neck with graphite reinforcement runs through the body, providing exceptional sustain and stability. This design ensures the guitar stays in tune and maintains its tonal integrity even under the most aggressive playing styles.
Premium Seymour Duncan Pickups
Equipped with Seymour Duncan JB and ’59 humbuckers, the RR24 HT offers a dynamic tonal range. These pickups deliver tight, expressive distortion and clear cleans, making them ideal for metal shredding and melodic leads.
Compound Radius Ebony Fingerboard
The 12″-16″ compound radius ebony fingerboard allows for comfortable chording near the nut and effortless bending higher up the neck. The jumbo stainless-steel frets enhance playability and durability for fast, precise fretting.
