The Concept Series Rhoads FR H goes further off the rails with a bevy of exciting new additions, culminating in a one-of-a-kind axe to be favored by any discerning metalhead. Fit with a single red-hot EMG humbucker and EMG Afterburner controls, luxurious Floyd Rose appointments, and deluxe gold hardware, the Concept Series Rhoads FR H's resilient performance and appearance serve as an invaluable addition onstage and in the studio. And there's no need to worry about navigation, either; given a gloss color-matched neck finish and speed profile, summoning sounds from either side of the fretboard will become second nature.

A conceptual take on a renowned Jackson classic





Jackson's Concept Series electric guitars redefine the bounds of the company's most popular instrument models. To that end, the Concept Series Rhoads FR H is no exception. Armed with a similar alder figure and neck profile, this axe sports custom-built appointments like a neck-through design and specialty single humbucker setup that takes its performance over the mountains. Stylish additions include pearloid shark fin fingerboard inlays and Luminlay side dots, ensuring you can find your way around the fretboard in any stage or studio environment. Lined in deluxe gold hardware and Jackson sealed die-cast tuners, you'll find nothing but enhanced Rhoads potential inside the Concept Series Rhoads FR H.





Dressed to the nines in Floyd Rose regalia





No Rhoads-inspired axe would be complete without a formidable tremolo system. That's why Jackson outfitted the Concept Series Rhoads FR H with a 1000 series double-locking tremolo, which facilitates everything from low-and-slow lead lines to downright sinister dive-bombs at the drop of a hat. Also onboard the Concept Series Rhoads FR H is a Floyd Rose 1000 Series locking nut, ensuring your intonation remains stable throughout any scale of movement from the tailpiece. If you're looking for a guitar that's loaded with pure pitching potential, you'll find all you want and more in the Concept Series Rhoads.





EMG 81 active humbucker with scorching tonal potential





The Concept Series Rhoads FR H is no stranger to pumping out high-gain metal tone, thanks to its onboard EMG 81 humbucking pickup. Packed with sturdy ceramic magnets and close-aperture coils, the EMG 81 easily slices its way through any mix with incredible balance and clarity, offering tones anywhere from deep, thunderous riffs to squelching solo screams ? perfect for classic rock connoisseurs, doom-inspired projects, and everywhere in between. Paired with the Concept Series Rhoads FR H's onboard volume and EBG Afterburner knob controls, Sweetwater guitarists have enjoyed scouring the tonal depths of the EMG 81.
