NGD: Jackson RR3 “Blueberry”

[Kyle-Vick]

Saw this thing in the Reverb Garage Sale. They were originally asking $700 for it, had it down to $450 and I offered them $350 for it. They said the action was high and it was buzzing the frets. Well the action is actually extremely low due to the trem posts being too far in. Turned them out to the correct hight and it’s good to go. Still needs the springs adjusted and a better tuning, but it plays just fine. I feel like I got a pretty good deal. Came with a nice hard shell Jackson case and what appears to be DiMarzio pickups. Haven’t pulled them yet to see what they are. Completely planned on swapping out the blue knobs and pickups for black stuff, but now that I have it, I kinda love them. The guitar appears to be in super good condition minus the typical nick on the pointy large wing. There’s very little play wear on this.

I don’t ever name guitars, but this thing is BLUE. Blueberry instantly came to my mind, so fuck it.

Nice hngd!
I like the blue pickups, i would also leave it like that.

Berry Nice !

Congrats, looks awesome. I wouldn’t change a thing.

Killer deal too. The case alone makes it worth it. I had to buy one for my Jackson and it was like $200 on sale iirc.

HNGD!
I've been tempted by many of these but can't get over the fact that it doesn't have a matching headstock

Killer!
X or JS series?

 

[Kyle-Vick]

I think it’s a old pro series MIJ.

The glare on the back of the neck there got me excited thinking it had a soft v neck. A v on a v.

Oh man, I really like that blue. Such a cool look with the blue pickups an knobs, too. Congrats.

 

[nightflameauto]

Nice looker. I've seen points far more beat up than that on supposedly brand new Vs sitting at the local shop.

 

[eaeolian]

I think it’s a old pro series MIJ.

Yes.

 

[MikeH]

As someone who is typically against colorful pickups and knobs and hardware, the blue works on this one. HNGD!

 

[gh0styboi]

Yeah, that looks like MIJ to me as well, but either way, congrats on such a dope find and happy NGD, man

Those Rhoads Vs are something else, and that all blue everything look is awesome.
