GJ2 Concorde

This is the guitar that people have been requesting from us since the world heard that Grover Jackson is making guitars again. Harking back to Grover’s original collaboration with Randy Rhoads, the Concorde is the ultimate incarnation of the shark’s fin shape that sparked Randy’s imagination.

This Concorde HT Custom features a Black finish with Gold pinstripes painted by Ernie Pedregon, the man who painted Randy Rhoads original pinstriped guitar. Other features include; a 3-piece Maple neck-through construction with Basswood “wings”, a string-through body design, gold hardware, locking tuners and an ivoroid bound Ebony fretboard with Concorde inlays.

I am in two minds about it. Can't make up my mind whether it's cool or extremely ugly :shrug:
 
For some odd reason, I have always wanted a Jackson Rhoads. I like the little twist they have done on this one.
 
nope

The only Rhoads guitar I ever liked were Dan Spitz's, which were like 7/8-sized and had ninja turtle graphics. Never got into the ninja turtles though, but I dug them on his guitar.
 
For an over the top all out hard rock/metal style guitar that is very tastefully done.

Way out of my price range though.
 
I just cannot see a market for this guitar.

This one really leave me scratching my head.

Why?

Why bother?

How can it possibly be the "ultimate incarnation...that sparked Randy's imagination"?

Wouldn't the original be the ultimate incarnation that sparked Randy's imagination?

I just don't see the point of this one.

There will be just as much a market for that one as the 100000000 tele and strat clones around
