Guys - it's ready to go! BRJ incoming!

[chimp_spanner]

So here it is, at last, in its full glory. Bernie being somewhat the perfectionist, it's undergone a few changes but it's finally finished and ready to go.

It's still stateside, so I've a little more drooling to do before I get to play it. But I thought I'd share some pics of the final thing, plus a special guest appearance by a certain well known Swede! Expect one hell of a NGD thread when this thing gets here.

 

[Prodigy179]

Keith and Jens!!!! Man that thing looks sick. I NEED an 8!!

 

[Guitarman700]

Oh sweet mother of god......

 

[FLGearnut]

sweet Rico dude, welcome to the BRJ club. enjoy it!

 

[Nightside]

Is that a neck thru with a gloss body finish and satin neck finish??? I thought Bernie didnt do such things?

 

[Opion]

So much win...

 

[kmanick]

Nice!
welcome to the family.
Bernie makes one hell of a smoking guitar!
8 string jekyll?? how awesome is that???

Nah, listen... Bernie does whatEVER the fuck you want. He builds customs, man.

 

[technomancer]

Very cool, congrats

 

[FrostyTheDroMan]

This is fuckin awesome on so many levels!! Jens!

 

[Nightside]

Nah, listen... Bernie does whatEVER the fuck you want. He builds customs, man.

About a year and a half ago I was getting a Jekyll 8 specd out to order and he wouldnt do a satin finish (such as plain old black satin). I wound up just getting some Agiles and a 2228. Still regret that lol.

 

[Adam Of Angels]

Was it part of a particular run? And are you talking about satin finish on the body or the neck like in this case? I would bet the neck on this particular guitar is oiled

 

[ittoa666]

That is a beautiful guitar. Why the hell is Jens there though?

 

[MetalMike04]

haha do you know what jens was doing there? i saw the pic and i was like''.....is...no..wait...what the fuu?.....is that jens kidman?''

 

[chimp_spanner]

I have no idea, Bernie just said "Oh and the guys from Meshuggah are coming over" - last thing before I went slept last night (at THREE...weekend working fails hard) he just sent it over in an email haha. Anyway I'll give you the lowdown when it arrives which, God willing, will be next week. Or however long things take to get from America to here. I hope Bernie left air holes for Jens...

 

[Jexey]

I was wondering when you'd be getting that bad boy. Can't wait to see it in action! Hook up a NGD thread and NGD sample track

 

[Dark_Matter]

Jens is such a beast. I wonder why they were there...

 

[MickD7]

dude nice guitar. Think about this for a second, BRJ 8 String, touched by both Keith and Jens. Its is possible that this is the most epic thing ever.

 

[maliciousteve]

Looks gorgeous Paul. How come a Kahler?

Also, any news on the next album?

 

[77zark77]

Fantastic design !
hope we'll be able to hear it
