Now see, THAT is how the Shattered Glass graphic is supposed to look - the one they use now is too Comic-Bookish.

Speaking of Jake models... his ESP models had a 24.75" scale, frets 1-12 were jumbo (or maybe even extra jumbo) and frets 13-22 were smaller/medium jumbo. Anyone know if any of his Charvels or Fender were like this? [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">No not that I'm aware. 1st off his guitars were regular 25.5 scale ..As far as frets I've ever seen any mention of 2 different fret sizes other than his esp models. Mike Shannon built the jake charvel I have and it was supposed to be to the same specs as the originals. Ralph E owns Jakes natural also and that was the same ...

Before the 90's, Fender only made three different guitar scales. 25 1/2", 24", and 22 1/2". Strats only came in 25 1/2". The only exception was a 24" 'short scale' Strat made in Japan from 1989-1994.

Thanks for the info! Kev, Jake's ESPs were definitely 24.75". He also really liked his Gibson SG, so maybe he preferred the shorter scale?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Absolutely! I don't own any original stratheads, but I definitely remember the different feel. Personally, I prefer the pointy profile, but it'd be cool to have both. And, yes, I'd buy both.

Hadn't thought of using both profiles with pointy heads, though. [img]graemlins/brow.gif[/img] I'd love it, but it wouldn't be particularly "original". And that'd be a turnoff for some folks. Cool stuff nonetheless, though. Thanks DM!
