Jackson Pro Series Signature Mark Heylmun Rhoads RR24-7, Lux Overview
Riverside California based Suicide Silence fuse a tight-knit mash-up of death metal, grind and metalcore, with time-signature bending dissonance to create a sound like no other.
Mark Heylmun, guitarist for the Californian progressive deathcore titans , is at the center of this sonic maelstrom, churning our pummeling riffs and blistering leads. Jackson guitars is proud to celebrate its new partnership with Mark with the Jackson Pro Series Signature Mark Heylmun RR24-7.
Being a huge fan of the Jackson offset Rhoads shape, Mark worked closely with the Jackson Custom Shop to design and develop a modern take on this iconic model, which instantly became the guitar of his dreams.
The Signature Mark Heylmun RR24-7 Rhoads features a 26.5” scale length, a 12""-16"" compound radius ebony fingerboard , 24 jumbo frets, a nyatoh body and a through-body maple neck with scarf joint and graphite reinforcement to guard against climate-induced warping. Designed for an extreme, down tuned riffage, this 7-string beast is powered by Fishman Fluence Modern humbucking pickups that allow the player to choose between having active or passive pickup output. This model also comes equipped with a three-way pickup toggle switch, a single volume control and the Floyd Rose 1000 series 7-string double-locking tremolo bridge system, for rock-solid tuning stability through the most aggressive dive bombs or harmonic squeals.
The Jackson Pro Signature Mark Heylmun RR24-7 makes a bold statement onstage in a Gloss Black finish with white pin stripes, reverse Jackson pointed 7-in-line black headstock and gold hardware.
