    Re: FINALLY ORDERED A CUSTOM SHOP!!

    Hell, you fooled me even! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Here I thought you DREW those realistic drip patterns while you were bored in Photoshop or something. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

    Ahhh damn, I just realized Newc specified a blood SPLATTER graphic rather than a blood DRIP. Never seen a blood splatter graphic on a Jackson before. I've seen one on Troy's GMW I remember.

    Should be even more unique! [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

      Works for me [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

      The pic I posted was one from the old Jackson site (Pre Fender), but I was looking for one from the JacksonStars site, which looks pretty much like the one you posted [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

      Then again, they don't offer the Blood *Drip*, only the Blood *Splatter*, and IIRC they were two different designs.

        Re: FINALLY ORDERED A CUSTOM SHOP!!

        Ok, sent the confirmation back to Matt, and made 2 small changes:
        -Pickups - Distortion (B) and Custom (N). Duncan didn't say if their 7-string pickups come in trem spacing, so I just put what it says on the site - "7-string SH-x"
        -Body/Horn Scallop - I noted "Standard Warrior Horn Scallop" - I'd hate to end up with a square-edged Warrior [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
        -Jack Location/Plate - 1990 Warrior style and location (bottom edge and recessed)
        -Ernie Ball 2623 7-string SuperSlinky 9-52 strings (they had 9-42 [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img])
        -And the big change - matching headstock [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] I ran it through the Quote Generator and it didn't show as an upcharge, so I went with that [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
        -And I added Black with Red interior for the G&G case [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] It'll look like it's lying in a case full of blood [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
        -And I just sent off YET ANOTHER update to the order to specify "Custom Shop" logo on head [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

        Either Matt or Jackson are going to get tired of me pretty soon [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/poke.gif[/img]

          Hey Newc, that is not 2 small changes.. more like 10! [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
          Is it an upcharge to change the color of interior of GG case?
          If not, I want Purple interior.... or Purple as standard?

            I think they have purple, red, and blue. The G&G site is NOT very informative regarding standard/optional case specs.

            The "2 small changes" were the matching head and the case interior - everything else was supposed to have been on the first order I sent, but I kept forgetting to add them [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                        Probably one of the best and most natural looking blood drips I've seen.

                          I agree with Ron.

                            [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Funny you should mention that, Ron. I told Matt that I was tempted to ask how much extra a full-on Chris Holmes BloodBath would cost, but added that I probably didn't really need to know [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
