Description
The Jackson X Series Rhoads RRX24M in Snow White with Black Pinstripes takes the unmistakable Rhoads silhouette and equips it for fast, aggressive modern metal playing. The Rhoads design is inseparable from Jackson's history and the legacy of Randy Rhoads, and the RRX24M keeps that sharp visual identity intact while adding active Seymour Duncan electronics, a full 24-fret layout, and a recessed double-locking tremolo. For players who want a purpose-built metal guitar with stage presence to match its sound, this one makes its intentions clear immediately.
The Rhoads body is constructed from basswood and finished in gloss Snow White with contrasting Black Pinstripes. A maple neck runs through the body and is reinforced with graphite, providing a rigid foundation for the 25.5" scale length and upper-fret access demanded by technical playing. The neck also uses a scarf joint construction, while the reverse Jackson pointed 6-in-line headstock completes the aggressive profile. The combination is built around the kind of sustain, stability, and unrestricted fretboard access that makes the Rhoads shape such a natural fit for lead-heavy metal.
A maple fingerboard continues the bright visual theme and uses Jackson's 12" to 16" compound radius. The rounder lower register remains comfortable for rhythm playing and chord work, while the flatter upper register provides more room for bends, fast runs, and lead techniques. Twenty-four jumbo frets give players a full two-octave range, while reverse black sharkfin inlays and black headstock binding create a striking contrast against the maple. A 1.6875" Floyd Rose Special locking nut works with the bridge to help maintain tuning through aggressive tremolo use.
The recessed Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo provides the hardware foundation for dives, pull-ups, vibrato effects, and other expressive techniques while helping maintain consistent tuning and intonation. Jackson sealed die-cast tuning machines handle conventional tuning adjustments, and chrome hardware stands out sharply against the Snow White finish. The absence of a pickguard keeps the body lines clean and puts the focus squarely on the Rhoads shape and black pinstripe treatment.
A pair of active Seymour Duncan Blackouts supplies the RRX24M with its high-output voice. The Blackouts AHB-1B bridge pickup is paired with an AHB-1N at the neck, giving the guitar an HH configuration designed for powerful distorted tones while retaining separate neck and bridge options. The control layout consists of an individual volume control for each pickup and a master tone control, while a three-position blade selects the bridge pickup, both pickups together, or the neck pickup. It is a straightforward setup that gives players quick access to the core sounds needed for heavy rhythm work, articulate leads, and saturated high-gain playing.
At Cream City Music, we think the RRX24M is a strong choice for players who want the classic Jackson Rhoads attitude with a distinctly modern feature set. The neck-through construction, compound-radius maple fingerboard, 24 jumbo frets, active Blackouts, and recessed Floyd Rose all serve a clear purpose for metal and technically demanding playing. Add the Snow White finish, Black Pinstripes, reverse sharkfin inlays, and chrome hardware, and this Rhoads has the visual impact to match its aggressive performance setup.
