2010 with all the relating paperwork and original |
Anvil flightcase, more info: This is the Jackson |
Custom Shop Randy Rhoads Relic Concorde Tribute |
guitar- based on one of the most iconic guitars |
ever made. This guitar has only come out of the |
box for pictures and has never been played! Randy |
s Tribute Model is a direct replica of his |
original 1980 Jackson asymmetrical v-Shaped guitar |
that he personally designed. The original Concorde |
is known as the first pointy guitar and the |
first instrument to bear the Jackson logo. This |
guitar comes with a siged COA by Delores Rhoads, |
Mike Shannon, & Chip Ellis, pictures |
and explanations of how the guitar was crafted, |
and much more. This run was limited with only 60 |
produced and in circulation worldwide.About The |
Rhoads family gave Mike Shannon and Chip Ellis |
(who worked on this guitar and the EVH |
Frankenstein guitars) access to Randy s guitar, |
Mike and Chip then rebuilt Randy s guitar down to |
every nick, scratch, and spec. It includes the |
black non-reflective tape on the back of the |
guitar that Sharron Osbourne made Randy put on the |
guitar on the Diary of a Madman tour so that when |
the lights were dimmed before the show started, |
Randy would flip his guitar up so that it would |
not reflect any light to keep the stage totally |
dark.HistoryThe original Concorde was built in |
1980 and designed by Randy and built by Grover |
Jackson, Tim Wilson (Jackson Custom Shop), and |
Mike Shannon (masterbuilder). The Jackson Concorde |
was built by Mike Shannon who worked as builder at |
Charvel for Grover Jackson and was specifically |
built for Randy Rhoads. Grover thought the design |
was so extreme that he didn t want to put the |
guitar under the Charvel name which in turn, led |
to creation of Jackson Guitars. The original |
guitar had been kept at the Rhoads family school |
since his death, and they say the case has not |
been opened in over 20 years when Chip Ellis and |
Mike Shannon arrived to inspect and measure every |
aspect of it. Amazingly, the neck was straight, |
and it was still in tune. One of the most |
noticeable customizations that Randy did to his |
guitar is the black tape all over the back. Randy |
was one of the most influential rock guitar |
players in history, and this is the defining Randy |
guitar. The guitar comes in a stenciled anvil |
case, and the whole project has the Rhoads family |
blessing. <iframe width= 560 height= |
