If Jackson ever ships it to me, that archtop Death Angel will be for sale on my site.

Toru, very nice score on this RR. It's been a pleasure dealing with you! Enjoy it... and take some better pictures of it for us when it arrives. I would have taken your pics outside but it's about zero degrees out there!

Re: My CS Rhoads is DONE! Chris Holmes

Yea, Ron actually asked me the same question in the Chat room before and not only him, many people including Jackson asked me to make sure what I wanted but I just had to follow what Chris had on his Rhoads... [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
The correct one on his White Rhoads was "**** off n' die" but I didn't have the balls to go with that.. so I went with what his Black Rhoads had.
It was "IM A ANIMAL".. Jackson made a mistake and put "I'M A ANIMAL".
I am not 100% sure if Chris's guitar had "I'M" or "IM".
I think only the way to find out what the truth is to ask Chris himself...

Re: My CS Rhoads is DONE! Chris Holmes

I am jealous. I think the original might have had a little apostrophe...I am trying to find the pics.

Real Nice Toru. I don't know who Chris Holmes is (too old I guess) but that is one nice original looking guitar. Enjoy it with the rest of the Jackson family that you have. [img]/images/graemlins/band.gif[/img]

Re: My CS Rhoads is DONE! Chris Holmes

Wow Toru. No koa? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Just kidding. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] That's one of the older style TOM bridges if I am not mistaken... what is the model designation of that bridge? Looks great overall. [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Re: My CS Rhoads is DONE! Chris Holmes

Doh!
No Sparkles.. no Koa here [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
I don't know the name of that bridge.
As soon as I saw the Relic Rhoads at the Winter Namm 2004,
I just asked them if these are available and they said $100 upcharge.
It was not on the custom shop quote option at the time but now I see it but with $120 upcharge.
I think the name is Old Style Rhoads bridge or something.

Bengal651, Chris Holmes was the guitarist of W.A.S.P. and was pretty popular back in 80's.
The band still exists but Chris does not play with them anymore.

Re: My CS Rhoads is DONE! Chris Holmes

I don't see it. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

http://jacksonguitars.com/resources/custshopquote/

I even refreshed my browser a few times and didn't see it there. Oh well, I believe you. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: My CS Rhoads is DONE! Chris Holmes

Yea! you are right.. where did I see that then.. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

On my CS quote I got a month ago on my Black Star with String thru, it shows as "Vintage RR Tunomatic bridge" and the cost is $120.
I know when I ordered the White Rhoads, it was $100.

I guess you will have to specify when you order one.
