Gojira guitarist Christian Andreu's USA Rhoads is built around one pickup and one knob. A Charvel Custom MF humbucker sits at the bridge, wired to a single volume control with no switching.
The mahogany Rhoads body has a quartersawn maple neck-through, graphite reinforced and scarf-jointed under a satin painted finish. The ebony board carries Gojira "G" pearl inlays, 22 jumbo frets and a 12" to 16" compound radius that flattens toward the top of the board for bends. The bridge is a Jackson TOM-style adjustable unit with the strings loaded through the body, a fixed bridge that is simple to restring and retune. It comes strung .010-.056.
For a Rhoads with two pickups, an alder body and a Floyd Rose Original tremolo, look at the USA Select Randy Rhoads RR1.
