The updated electronics include 490R and 498T pickups, CTS® potentiometers, and a hand-wired harness.
Whether you prefer a longer scale length in general, use drop tunings, or just appreciate its curvaceously elegant, classic design, the RD Custom is a great choice and a guitar that is guaranteed to help you stand out from the crowd. Now is your opportunity to experience the unique and comfortable playing experience of the cult-favorite RD Custom for yourself. A Custom Shop hardshell case is also included.
