1983 Greco RR55 'Mint Collection' Randy Rhoads (Japan, Alpine White)
Weathered, cool, first year Randy Rhoads model.
Greco makes it.
Fret edge binding, gold hardware. Not too much going on here...tailpiece and tuners have lost shine, bridge could be a replacement but it is right, and doing the job well. Poker chip AWOL. Frets have pitting, esp on the G string, but still playing great the way it is and, set up beautifully, with speed in mind.
Feels a lot like the thing it was modelled off, a 74 Norlin era Les Paul Custom.
A well worn in, damn fine guitar, and if you are going to have a Custom style guitar, it might as well be a white one, coz really, the look the best.
I think these came stock with strap lock buttons, but I am happy to be lightly reprimanded if I am wrong.
Ah yes, Mr Crowley, what went on in your head?
