Pablo no longer working in the Custom Shop?

[Hellbat]

It always seemed like he preferred doing his own thing rather than just building killer 'standards'.

So were the asymmetrical necks just a way to explain away another '23 fret Kelly'?

This is a bummer...I love my archtop Death Angel...

Makes you wonder if they'll just give up on the full custom shop and stick more with the custom select options. Or, just have the remaining guys do artist builds and close it to the public like Ibanez.

Mike and Dave have to get sick of building the same stuff over and over. Whether it's new blood in the custom shop or those guys leaving also to do something new, something needs to change.

+1 Yeah and that something is the fucking two year wait time!

Apparently a 23 fret Custom Shop 'Marty Friedman' Kelly didn't fly with the customer...no joke.

So you're saying Pablo did that and got fired for it?

[The Rossness]

Might have quit to do his own thing too.

I'd love to see where he ends up.

Good to see both of the DA archtops are stll with their original owners!

Sad to see about Pablo. I can't speak to Paul's but my Archtop DA was built by Mike Shannon. I was kinda surprised by that since Pablo seemed to be doing most of the "extreme" builds (pointy shape wise).

I never did get my damn binder from Jackson :/

Dit Pablo take the custom shop form download option with him? Because I can't find it anywhere anymore.

The site is having trouble right now. I just tried to go to it and it's not showing the option to download the master build order sheet.

The custom select form is there though...


total shut down of the custom shop? ;-)

The custom shop is up and running just fine. It's a problem with the website.

With Pablo gone, how many custom shop builders does jackson have?

Hopefully, enough that can actually count to 24...

... and put fret markers on the side of a neck in a straight row.

[xenophobe]

I hope he didn't get fired for this, it's hella funny.

There are plenty of other abortions and abominations that are worth the shitcan.

Oh yeah, I bet it's the 23 fret Kelly, There's a whole thread on sevenstring.org, for those that don't know. I think that is more than a just cause to fire him, Shannon probably had an aneurism! The wait times and issues that have been coming from the CS is disgusting lately, all over the net. But seriously 23 frets!!! Even I wouldn't f&&& that up, lol. WTF is going on?? Disgruntled workers?
