Subconscious Social Experiment, 23 guitars, a Rick bass, Ludwig drums , and a 1966 Ford Mustang

Me, Randy Rhoads and his mother: Dee

Dedication to a fallen hero Mr. Randy Rhoads who died on 3/19/82. I had the pleasure of meeting his mom: Delores "Dee" Rhoads on the 17th anniversary of his death on 3/19/99 and she became my friend. Her friend Ozzy Osbourne had one of the top rated TV shows in the country called "The Osbournes". Ozzy is known as the "Prince of Darkness" and "THE FATHER OF METAL". President Geoge W. Bush mentioned Ozzy in a speech and said his mother Barbara liked him. Ozzy also met the QUEEN OF ENGLAND.

see below for the photo of my Jackson Randy Rhoads 1980 prototype number 36 of which the first was Randys and is now owned by Randys mother: Delores "Dee" Rhoads seen to the right. There are only 203 in existence. Below that is the photo of Randy Rhoads i used for the template of my tattoo of him.

this thing has every sound processing technology available today on it meaning the kitchen sink is on it. LOL!!!

RANDALL WILLIAM RHOADS

Randall William Rhoads 1956-1982

a true master of the guitar, a teacher of the instrument and simply gone wayy too young died in a plane crash in FLA.

Id been a fan of Randy Rhoads guitar playing for nearly 20 years and i got the chance to meet his mom one day when i was living in California and I just took the opportunity to get some memorabilia and get to know her and get her autograph on a Jackson guitar sponsored memorial book for Randy and on one of my Jackson guitars. i knew it was the chance of a lifetime.
