Nice!
How does the B/W Bullseye play compare to the R/W bullseye?

Quite different actually. Definitely more like a Jackson than a Charvel, but still great. Just in a different way. How about that for a useless answer?

Re: Dueling Bullseyes ---- Pics..............

I thought B/W bullseye has finished(Satin) neck and R/W bullseye has oil finsihed neck?

[kmanick]

Re: Dueling Bullseyes ---- Pics..............

So which neck feels flatter and wider, the Red or the Black?
Are both necks finished the same?
Damn right now you are my idol of the day,
what a cool pair to own. [img]/images/graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img]

The neck on the B/W is quite a bit thinner, but width is about the same. The finish on the R/W is nicer to me though, but they are both done real well.

Re: Dueling Bullseyes ---- Pics..............

Are both necks "unfinished" or did they put a satin type finish on the red one. The B/W one is unfinished , is that correct?

Re: Dueling Bullseyes ---- Pics..............

Both look great! I like the way the R/W graphic wraps around the front, and I like the looks of the strathead, but I would need a Floyd. [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

Re: Dueling Bullseyes ---- Pics..............

You've got quite a pair Shawn. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Very cool!

Re: Dueling Bullseyes ---- Pics..............

FWIW The B/W was taken from an original charvel neck profile. If you put my B/W against one of my 1985 pointies they are the same profile.

Stratheads were a different profile than the pointies and were veried from guitar to guitar as different specs were offered IE: 1 5/8- 1 3/4 nuts. Early bolt on Jacksons from the ontario years are loosely based off of the original charvel profile. It remains a chuckle for a few of the charvel guys because a 1987 Bolt on Jackson is very much the same beast as a 1985 Charvel- But the jacksons don't come close in price to money the charvies will command... so if you want the same bang for a much better price buy an early ontario Jackson bolt and you are there...

Re: Dueling Bullseyes ---- Pics..............

Kevin, they are both awesome and I feel lucky to have both. I dont know what part you had in the pointy, but thanks in advance.

They are both incredible players. Although, there is currently a SD Custom/Custom in the pointy, and I am not real in love with it. I may put a 78 in it as that is what the strathead came with and I REALLY like it.

How do you go about getting a SD 78 EVH, do you just order it directly from the SD custom shop?

Re: Dueling Bullseyes ---- Pics..............

It's funny you chimed in here with this info kevin, because I have an 83 charvel pointy(my avatar Bengal) and an 88 Jackson full sized strat(Snakeskin San dimas Plate) and the necks are very similar. The charvel is just a touch thicker around but if you blind folded me and handed them to me I would have to guess which is which. I've only played one charvel strat head and it was in desparate need of a set up, so I have no real reference on the neck shape to compare it to.

One for each eye. I'm feeling dizzy! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

BTW, Shawn, Kevin is "Mr. Bullseye" (B&W). He basically pulled that run together. And nailed it. [img]/images/graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img]
