Jackson Phil Collen Archtop back from DLR Graphics!!!

[vklobucar]

Sent my worn and battered 90's Jackson Phil Collen Archtop to Dan over in Glendora CA and asked for a refinish as well as a natural neck and recessed control cavity too.

The results are stunning and perfect! Exactly what Dan and the whole team at GMP guitars delivers each and every time!!!! Thanks folks!

That turned out sweet! Love the sparkle.

Oh that turned out beautiful!

[vklobucar]

Thank you!

I can not stress enough just how well priced and super professional Dan and the whole crew at GMP / DRL Graphics are. People always assume that these custom graphics are crazy expensive and yet they are not. You end up with YOUR guitar looking and playing like a dream.

Next order for me will be a FB style GMP

That looks great!

I have been thinking about making a archback guitar myself. Good idea looks superb.

[charvelsteen]

Any chance of some pics that look at the back so you can see the arch?

[vklobucar]

I will shot some more asap

+ 1 for DLR and GMP

Great looking finish! Sparkle or metallic finishes always bring out the contours really nicely.

[GuerillaPete]

Sweet! That silver sparkle pops like a mofo!

Finally found some down time to install the hardware and wire up the Collen Archtop. There is a Super 3 at the bridge and a Dual Rails type at the neck. FU-Tone.com provided some SS screws and a 42mm Brass Big Block.

Need to tweak the truss rod some and set the intonation but its simply a lovely guitar hands down! The flush routed control cavity looks very clean and lack of a back plate (and screw holes for that matter) was my personal touch. True Oil neck is wonderful!

Very nice!, the neck is not quartersaw maple ?
