Why I Hate My Jackson RRT3...It's not what you think! I've had this Jackson RRT3, just like the one Randy Rhoads played, for quite a few years and yet I almost never play it! There's something I can't stand about it. Can you guess what it is? The Jackson Randy Rhoads guitar in the hands of GearGasms? Hmmm.

Do you like gear reviews and demos? Of course you do! Check out the full playlist here! ru-vid.com/group/PLJ7bQFZhdVlM7HBhb45mPk_mPBJMD9ZJR

you can actually play a RR sitting down. It is infinitely easier to play a RR sitting down vs a standard V. Now do you have to play it differently, yes. You have to play it with the neck point more up in the air. The weird side effect of doing this is that you have much more reach with your left hand which comes in handy if you are a shredder and play 3nps. so IMHO it is different but not a deal breaker. My RR is a 2016 RRTMG Pro with EMG 81/89 (the 89 is an 85 with a coil split) with pretty much the same features you described. Not my daily player but still definitely a keeper. I honestly think you gave up on it too soon.

Well besides all that I have too many guitars in general

Great vid! That first You Suck! caught me so off guard 🤣 I'm a lefty with super limited options, and couldn't hit the Buy Now button fast enough when LTD made the SnakeByte (Hetfields Explorer) left handed. Everything about the guitar is beautiful, perfect ebony fretboard and awesome frets, fairly light for that huge chunker of a body, easy to play sitting or standing... But -I *hate* the Het Set active pickups in it. They drive a couple of my solid state amps nuts, and since it's now pretty much a case queen the 9v is usually dead between times I give it another chance. I love it too much to sell it and also love it too much to hack it up with a hot standard pickup like SD Invaders or something. Sorry for the novel, just saying I can relate! Subb'd!

@GearGasms 3 месяца назад

Welcome to the family! How about just the standard EMG 85s? They may not be as hot. My local music store installs pickups for free if you buy them there!

@@GearGasms I have a great soldering setup (I also restore pinball machines) and have added bridge humbuckers to both of my Strats, I'm just reluctant to modify this. It's dumb because it's just the LTD version, though it wasn't a cheapie but here I am stuck with my albatross that I won't play, mod or sell. I need to somehow adopt your attitude with the Rhoads. 🤣

@GearGasms 3 месяца назад

Yeah sometimes the solution is to send it on

Randy was so small that the Jackson was the only guitar that made him look bigger xD

@GearGasms 3 месяца назад

True!

I love these guitars I'd buy it if i had anymore room for anymore guitars.

@GearGasms 3 месяца назад

Already sold it but I have no understand

@jarrettfinney4882 2 месяца назад

You still got it for sale? Also where’s it made at? Because if it’s like Japanese or American, I got a prs ce22 I’m trying to see about trading for something. Great guitar, got it to match my favorite car, but I’m just not gelling with it. Not a fan of the pickups personally, and I don’t like the fret size, I’ve just gotten used to bigger frets. Great guitar tho. 2003 whale blue

@allanflippin2453 3 месяца назад

Alan, Well yes. Trying to play a mess like that guitar sitting down would be a pain! I have my own beef with Jackson guitars in general: they only offer guitars with a floyd or no whammy at all. I can't hang with Floyds :D Rock on my dude.

@GearGasms 3 месяца назад

That’s true about the Floyds. Charvel offers some the Gotoh trem but not Jackson

"You Got To Stand Out And Play It !" That sounds like 80's hair metal album title ! :) Actually that output positioning allows it to be played in classical guitar style.

@GearGasms 3 месяца назад

Yeah that’s the way I’d see Randy do it but he was into classical

@onsesejoo2605 3 месяца назад

@@GearGasms I forgot that the V - shape is difficult to set without the strap if sitting if not taking the "Randy style".

@sytharnia1717 3 месяца назад

Before even hitting play I knew it was the "sitting down" thing ... dude just leave the strap on (you will have to shorten it a bit) and it will sit exactly where a strat does off your right leg. BUT if you did choose to have it between your legs without a strap the you have the perfect guitar when going from sitting to standing because the guitar is in exactly the same spot in both positions ....

Yes but no
