MoreModDay- MMD RR7 Jackson!

[LockeGilber]

this thread makes me really want to go for it!

 

[LockeGilber]

It almost looks awesome

 

[JP Universe]

gorgeous.... full of class!

 

[Contra]

Classy! I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like that before.

 

[Goatchrist]

Would you sell it to me?
Looks amazing! I'd love a Rhoads 7!

 

[8track]

looks great!

 

[Andromalia]

Reminds me of my grandmother's wardrobe, no joke, she had a gigantic art-deco wardrobe exactly this color of wood. XD
I think you'd do a favor to your guitar with gold hardware and pickguard now.

 

[UCBmetal]

the spalted maple would've been absurdly fantastic, but this is still an incredible guitar

 

[skeels]

^Yeah.. Its not big enough to make a strat even ..
Oh well .. I'll have to build something small or cut down more maples...

Thanks everybody ...

 

[kruneh]

That looks awesome, very cool, great work!

 

[Rayaus]

Looks awesome man! Good job!

 

[iron blast]

Have you considered adding locking tuners, a jackson logo decal, and ebonizing the board? I think those mods would make this an end all axe.

 

[skeels]

^Thanks man. Yeah those would be nice. Especially the black board with those big inlays.
But I think I'm going to have to leave the fine-tuning for her next owner. I'll probably be putting her and some of her sisters up for sale soon to help me cover some legal fees.
I may go back to just having a couple guitars.

 

[AmbienT]

More amazing redone guitars!

Have always wanted a RR7 and this is just beautiful

 

[SYLrules88]

nice work!! looks incredible!

 

[thebunfather]

You've inspired me. I'm seriously thinking about doing a veneer to my RR7R!

Thinking a quilted maple top with a white/blue burst finish will look nice with the brushed stainless hardware. Maybe leave the sides and back natural...

Anyway, killer work, man!

Thanks everybody ...

Is it big enough to do an N2/N4?

 

[XeoFLCL]

How many mm is that veneer? That looks massive Looks at least3mm thick, but maybe it's just the top contouring down a bit? If it is, notice any minor tone changes? Looks amazing.

 

[skeels]

Wow thanks everybody for all the comments!

I'm glad you all d ig it!

@bunfather- the spalted maple I have is too small to do anything without piecing it all together.
Like I said I just need to cut down more maple trees!

@Xeo- The veneer I ended up using is actually super thin.
It's hard for me to comment on any tone changes because I got the guitar with no pickups!
But I'm very happy with the combination I have a mare the evolution and the air Norton are great!

Also- Spalted maple is a pain in the ass to work with especially when you're starting from a raw log!
