Launched parallel to the RH-4 in 1987, the BLADE® RH-3 offers a different tonal spectrum than its cousin – the RH-4. Very resonant with great sustain, the RH-3 cuts through with the fat upper-mids of the North American alder body for a round, rocking, bluesy sound. It is finished with a hand-polished polyurethane lacquer in opaque colors. The RH-3 sports the Levinson noiseless V-3 stacked coils and LH-55 humbucker for great tone, punch and dynamic response. The patented Falcon FT-1 tremolo, locking machine heads, sepia mirror pickguard and legendary Variable Spectrum Control complete this excellent package - beauty in a beast.

Features

Falcon Tremolo

The patented Falcon® Tremolo combines vintage look and feel with a double-block system that lets you up-trem on a flat guitar body. Unlike floating units, it maximizes string and wood resonance for huge attack and sustain. And it stays perfectly in tune even if a string breaks and lets you bend open strings deeply without detuning.

Schaller Locking Tuners

Designed to keep your instrument in tune, even under the most demanding stage conditions, these tuners offer fast string changes and rock-solid performance. Whether you're gigging nightly or recording in the studio, Schaller Locking Tuners deliver the tuning stability and ease of use serious musicians demand.

The VSC Electronic

The Variable Spectrum Control (VSC) breaks traditional tonal limits with presets that shift instantly from creamy overdrive to bell-like highs. Blade® electronics also include a passive bypass for pure vintage tone and reliable power.
