the "it's not a jake" charvel...is now almost a jake!

[sully]

I made some pickguards over the weekend. Now I just need to get some pearloid tuning knobs and maybe a chrome jack plate. Oh, and I gotta get rid of the Custom Custom that's in there. Anyone got a black Custom they wanna trade?





I've loved that guitar since I was a kid; it's the Charvel version of my Rhoads LTD. Such a great guitar; I'm really glad I got off my ass and bought it.

Nice looker - what's the story on this one? What you bought, I mean - not who Jake is and what "a Jake" is - I know all that. Real custom shop or a parts-o-caster?

[sully]

100% legit Charvel Custom Shop, my friend. Part of a custom run of 10 pieces through Matt's Music. I'd like to add that I made these mods completely on my own, and that the Matt run was never intended to be a signature model.

That looks very sharp, Sully. Real nice work on the pickguard.

Thanks Pat!

Looking good Sully, don't forget to rip off that ebony board and replace it with Rosewood for real authenticity.

K might be able to point you in the right direction for the pearl tuners.

Mine is still completely stock for now.

Oh OK - I had seen that one on Matt's site for a while - I didn't see it had the bullet truss rod adjuster.

Very sharp !!!! Love the 3 on 3 logo. Didn't jake have one hard tail with a single and hum or is my old age kicking in again?

[Jack The Riffer]

I do have to say that these guitars came with some THICK slabs of ebony!!!

The sig is a waterslide decal that's not been cleared over. No video on this one, sorry! I haven't filmed a whole lot over the past couple of weeks.
