    also an example of his work can be found in this thread. http://www.jcfonline.com/threads/112...ibson-Explorer
    Actually Headroller is Mike's wife. Mike's tag is Learn Guitars.

    The headstock looks like it is delaminating. Who knows if it's from taking a hit or moisture or what on that thing . The front does like some crazy ex keyed it or something. Lightning sky lovers will weep and haters will smile. Obviously somebody didn't know what they had or they have enough money that they didn't care.

    The guitar needs a bit of TLC as far as a trem rust removal project and fingerboard conditioning. Frets are crying for a polish too..

      I will be taking care of this guitar believe that. I didnt think Id find such a sweet deal, I used my amp money to buy this. Now I got to kick ass guitars with no amp....well I got the little Line6 15 watter this git came with. Oh well. Im very happy. Ill getthis guitar a set up etc, frets polished etc, But I really want that headstock done, if its possible.
      I love guitars, Always have and always will.

        Mike also did the album artwork for Megadeth - The System Has Failed. Nice score, some people pay a lot of money for a "relic" job like that. lol

              as has been mentioned, contact mike learn. he resurrected a hamer diablo for me. it was a hunk of shit, now it is amazing. is work is quality, and considering he does work with jackson, MAYBE he could do a restoration on the headstock....of course i have no idea, but call him and ask him yourself. you maybe lucky!!!

              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!!!!

                Sweet! Congrats on the CL score. Definitely reach out to Mike Learn. Great guy. Greater work.
                Though, I would wait until after NAMM. There's a chance he won't be around because of the convention, but if he doesn't reply back drop Mrs. Learn an note.

                  Wow, I cant imagine how much a refinish would be, especially from a jackson artist. I think I might just leave in and get new hardware. Actually I might be fleabaying it soon as is , I dunno yet.
                  I love guitars, Always have and always will.
