Custom Show Dinky

[Jack Napalm]

Just came home from the Dallas Guitar Show. Got to see George Lynch play with a local blues band. Nice show.

At Fullers Guitars out of Houston I had been looking at a Soloist with a Military Pinup Girl paint job by Dan L. Nice looking guitar but out of my price range. Behind it was the following black dinky custom shop. The maple board is fantastic and looks great with the ebony inlays. Has an ash body and JB in the bridge and Lil Demon in the neck.

Here it is.



For anyone counting this was work order 1783 and Serial Number 8234.

Saw Scott from VWall guitar who had quite a few nice looking Jacksons there as well.

Very nice. The bound body adds a touch of class.

Didn't one of the JCF dealers have one very similar to that?

Thanks everone. It's possible this was online last year. The spec sheet says it was built 5/19/04. It has a great feel to it. Non recessed trem and the tag says it was built by Mike Shannon. The neck feels very nice and the fret job is awesome.

Sorry, no pics of the pinup. It was green bolted steel with a USA symbol and 88 in yellow on it. The woman was 3/4 naked and in high heels.

I think Kevin Easton had a guitar similar sometime last fall.

Re: Custom Show Dinky

Easton had one.
But that was slightly different such as the one Easton had had opposite slanted single coil and chicken head knob for the volume knob(strange!).

Re: Custom Show Dinky

Man, what a bargaining chip! Something to jog her memory when she starts givin ya shit about buyin' gear. All I have to throw at my wife is how much she spends on foo-foo (hair, nails, makeup, clothes, etc.) [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Was the Warbird signed by Dan? He had stated previously that the Warbirds he painted didn't have chicks in them.

I did not look for a signature or see one. The Jackson Rep that was there stated Dan painted it.
