I always looked at Jake as a skilled player. Too bad he pretty much disappeared after the Ozzy gig. The last solo in Rock n Roll Rebel is badass.Comment

Dang why is there so much disregard on the JCF for the Badlands stuff? That was some truly kickass shit. Jake didn't always jell with Ozzy in my opinion (as well as Ozzy'sOriginally posted by khabibissell View Post
), but he and Ray Gillen had great chemistry. Also, the Badlands stuff was rawer and lacked the big production, so you could really hear Jake's rhythm and lead work. Plus....Ray never pulled Jake's hair during his solos!

and axewielder - there was no issue - it WAS a fender which got relogo'd as a charvelComment

Well saying it was merely "relogo'd" is a slap across the face to the Charvel dudes who rebuilt that thing. My opinion is that EVERY Charvel has a little bit of Fender in it, on account of the body shape. The Jake Charvel, well..that one has just a little bit more than usual!Originally posted by sonicsamurai View Post

I actually loaded badlands into my ipod a few months ago and have been listening to it a ton. His solo debut was his best stuff if you ask me. Jake is a helluva player on the ozzy albums too....Comment

what... even Charvel Stars the Jackson brand, Rhoads VS, Kellys etc then by ur definition?
Nononononoo all charve did was change the pickup config, remove 2 knobs, and add the logo, so its still essentially a fenderComment
