Jackson/Charvel Owners Club

[Wyvern Claw]

Hey, I have the Dinky version!

Beautiful, I love this Nebula finishes. I was stoked to find one on an RR1 when I bought mine, never really seen that. And although it was used, it was dead mint when I bought it (and still is), so I saved a ton of cash on that one.

I KNEW someone was going to ask about it, they always do when it's seen in any of my pictures, haha. It's my ESP Custom shop, you can see it here on the last page (page 12 as of now) of this thread. Posted pictures of it just before posting my Jackson in this thread.

Lace deathbuckers huh? They look pretty nice! Great guitar.

I'm pretty sure only the earliest neckthru Jacksons from 1983-84 didn't have scarf joints--that was because they had three-piece laminated necks. As soon as they went to one-piece necks in late '84, they went to scarf joints, AFAIK.

Good to know! I remember I went to a special thing at a shop in Houston where they talked about the neck-thru guitars and the emphasis on why it was less economical to use quarter sawn maple the way they do, but better... and I guess that gave me the impression that they were one piece the whole way through.

Scarf joints are a money-saving thing. It's a lot cheaper to cut the headstock separately and glue it on. It has the added benefit of being a stronger join than a one-piece neck/headstock construction. Since Jackson doesn't use volutes, this is nice to have.

Yesterday I've bought my first made in USA Jackson ever Jackson's always been my favourite brand of electric guitars, and had a bunch of import models before, but I've felt the time has come to turn to more serious guitars (Though I loved the old Professional series.) Here's a couple o' teaser picz until I'll get my hands on the guitar (it's on the way from Germany):

Cool! A PC-1 in trans-black! Congrats!

Thx! Yes, a pre-Fender buyout PC-1 in almost mint condition (made in presumably between 1997 and 2000, as from 2001, PC-1's have the 3-knob control layout, and this Dinky-style guitar replaced the singlecut PC model in 1997). I've always loved the Phil Collen models, and being a big Adrian Smith fan since my childhood, I could hardly decide between the Adrian Smith signature and this one, but the 24-fret neck tilted the balance towards the PC-1. I'm really excited to get my hands on the guitar

Custom Shop Charvel Desolation. Received it in the mail last week and it's quickly become one of my absolute favorites.

Here is my main axe, the Rhoads Pro '90 in my favourite finish!



Hope to get another Jackson soon (I'd like it with fixed bridge). Looking for green-beveled Kevin Bond Rhoads signature right now. Has anyone got it here?
