This is going to cause quite a stir in the RR community...some will be elated and some opinionated and some both.
I am assuming you came across by fair means and under this assumption good luck to you. I hope it goes to someone who will love it.

Matt this has either had some modifications done to it or it's not RR's. If you see in the pic the housing which holds the speaker and graphic equaliser etc. It's blue in the one being sold. Randy's is black, the controls are white and these one's are yellow. The guitar lead which is said to be Randy's is different i.e white jack plugs on Randys, angled black one's on this ?. The story does have its questionable history, which could be answered with a simple telephone call to Jerry Calhoun. Plus the guitar picks which would be worth a fortune by themselves are included ?.It's funny how they are not shown ?.

I've just getting some close up pics of the item from the seller including the guitar picks. Like i said Matt it may have had a few modifications done to it. So just calm down no need to go into kill mode yet :twisted:

don't worry in actuality Cpt Matt is laying on a hamock with his guitar and drunk on rum. He isn't too bothered if it is legit or not...

This was discussed at length at .tk quite some time ago. This item DID NOT belong to Randy Rhoads. Randy had a Zeus, but it was modified for headphone use because Randy's constant practicing drove Ozzy nuts.

It is currently being discussed at .tk with quite a bit of valid info.

Ultimately, the economy sucks and someone who needs cash is trying to scam Randy fans, if you ask me. There is no way I'm going to believe this came off the tour bus at the accident site and was left for 25 years. Why would it have been removed from the bus in the first place?

Randy fans can be gullible, and this guy is banking on that fact.

Here's another clue... a newbie poster with the find of a lifetime :roll:

It was not in the crash. It was in Mr. Calhoun's garage when he gave it to me in 1982. It was in my possession since. Do you think I was gonna give it away? I'm a Randy fan also.

Do you think the Zeus went to Heaven with Randy or did aliens abduct the thing?

Okay, so if it's for real, it belonged to Randy Rhoads and should be returned to his family, NOT sold on ebay for $5000...

IF it were real, why sell it? And why not allow someone who has never used ebay to bid on it? What if someone who has never used ebay decided to use this auction as their introduction to ebay? If you are a fan who will 'never forget', why have you never been here until you want money?

Regardless of your claims, I simply don't believe you. You have no track record in this community and all the info you have presented is common knowledge to RR community members.

You can play headphone or guitar into it. It plays fine. This was never posted on the net or discussed before. Do I take it to the grave with me?
