MXR Randy Rhoads RR104C Signature Distortion + Pedal - Concorde

New

This one is extra special to us here at Motor City Guitar - Randy Rhoads was a huge inspiration and if it weren't for him, our store probably wouldn't even exist. We were so thrilled to see MXR collaborate with Randy's sister Kathy to create this amazing tribute!

In just a few short years, Randy Rhoads revolutionized the art of the rock 'n' roll guitar player, merging fluid, classically inspired legato passages and melodies with searing, violin-like leads and super-saturated riffs. One of the most crucial components of this riveting sound was the MXR Distortion+, Randy harnessed its raw energy to slam his amplifier with a torrent of harmonics to create the sonic signature that would etch an indelible mark on music history.

MXR celebrates Randy's monumental legacy with this recreation of his own MXR Distortion+. For the first time in 42 years, the Rhoads family unveiled Randy’s pedalboard for the MXR design team at the family’s music school in Los Angeles—the Musonia School of Music. There, history was made as the MXR design team carefully opened the pedalboard, closely inspecting and documenting all they could from this rock ’n’ roll artifact. The engineers painstakingly spec'd Randy’s vintage Distortion+, with the direct involvement of sister Kathy Rhoads, and created this signature model to produce the same overdriven tube-like tones heard on Randy’s most beloved hits. And, of course, it’s only fitting that it comes with a custom finish inspired by Randy’s legendary "Concorde" guitar, that he designed with Grover Jackson in 1980.
