            Okay everyone ... it's the moment you've all been waiting for.

            I got her home, cleaned up the fretboard. Removed some rust from the trem. Put some new strings on. Cleaned it down. And ... holy crap, it's amazing. It was missing the cap on the 5-way blade switch, so I picked up a new one ... good as new!

















            Literally not a scratch on it anywhere.
            The neck is amazing, it's so smooth, and feels great.

            And I couldn't possibly be happier. Just a day or two late for St. Patty's day [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

                congrats!!! i LOVE those charvels. i'd prefer having a bunch of those over the new ones.

                here's my custom shop version of one of those....



                GEAR:

                some guitars...WITH STRINGS!!!! most of them have those sticks like on guitar hero....AWESOME!!!!

                some amps...they have some glowing bottle like things in them...i think my amps do that modelling thing....COOL, huh?!?!?!

                and finally....

                i have those little plastic "chips" used to hit the strings...WHOA!!!!

                  HW: Incredible score! [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]
                  MD: Thanks for posting the great pics! I've been seriously thinking of ordering a 1H SD1 like yours from the Custom Shop (except in Koa, with black hardware and an ebony board).

                    Popular is not the same as good
                    Rare is not the same as valuable
                    Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

                        Incredible! nice grab, put me on the top of the list if you decide to sell her.
                        what do you think about gold hardware on there?
                        I always liked gold against flame and quilted green tops

                        If this is our perdition, will you walk with me?

                            Alright ... here's a question.

                            Is it possible to buy a Jackson/Charvel branded San Dimas case new?
                            I tried fitting this into my SL1's case ... but it seemed a little sketchy around the headstock (like the case was a tad too small).

                              You got the deal of the year man! [img]/images/graemlins/band.gif[/img] Very Nice! I like the way the top was dyed only. That neck looks killer too. Congrats [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

                                You need to ask John the Marketing Guy or Matt on that one. I shopped for cases awhile ago. The Jackson 900 series thermoplastic cases are questionable (and are in process of evaluation for a redesign) and the cheaper (import cases) are also. I ended up buying Fender, G & G cases for about 5 guitars.
