  • Another Megadeth KV Replica

    I could not decide where to post this, because it's made in Japan AND Germany

    Here's my newest Dave related guitar, my Jackson project:

    From a fucked up all beaten KV-Pro to a very nice Megadeth-Logo KV replica.
    Well, except for the japanese serial number, the KV-Pro on the truss rod cover and the "Seymour Duncan" on the pickup

    Work done:

    - sand it down
    - reglue fretboard (was lifting)
    - replace end of the wings with mahagony
    - reshape the wings
    - make it black again
    - finding a good airbrush guy and try different types of MEGADETH logos
    - clear coat
    - Jackson USA decal (made a lot of bubbles and was restaurated once again by hand
    - moa clear coat
    - Fret leveling
    - new electronics
    - setup

            Thank you all

            The wood damage...
            Well, I had a very talented luthier to get this done.

            It was something like this:
            - Saw off the damaged parts.
            - Glue on a pieces of mahagony and have the right machines available to reshape the bevels.

            I gave him another KV-Pro that was used kinda... like a tamplate.
