[quote name='thedontcarebear' post='997035' date='Oct 22 2010, 01:45 PM']I like Charvel, but that is pretty wrong looking unless you have invented a way to travel back to the 80's and are planning on taking it there with you.[/quote] Haha I just thought it would look good with a Tampa Bay Buccaneers shirt...or the Ziggy Stardust/David Bowie Facepaint. I was initially going to have it stripped and have a budweiser graphic put on but I grew to really like it.

Hi BCers, Just wanted to see what you make of my recent addition to my collection in late August of this year, I've wanted one since I was four having found it on a picture inside a cassette. Theres only 20 of this type made by Grover Jackson of Jackson Charvel Guitars so I had to import it from the US - this is the last one on sale: [url="http://www.musik-schmidt.de/gb-Charvel-Star-Legacy-1H-Gold-Bolt-SALE-.html"]http://www.musik-schmidt.de/gb-Charvel-Sta...Bolt-SALE-.html[/url] I received a DVD of the workshops activities and interviews from San Dimas Los Angeles plus a signed check list and C.O.A - all the Luthiers now work for Fender or Jackson's Custom Shop. I'm threatened with having to sell it (I won't!!) this is only part of the reason I've put it up, I'm more intrigued as to your first impression/knowledge of the guitar/company...

[quote name='Toasted' post='995002' date='Oct 20 2010, 04:10 PM']3 months is a [i]very[/i][ short time to wait for a custom instrument. I'm also laughing behind my hand that John Shuker has quoted you 3 months to completion - a good friend of mine has been waiting nearly 2 years. There are many custom builders in the UK. There are lots of threads about them, try a search. Personally of the two options you give I'd let Martin do the whole thing.[/quote] Could you be assed to wait two years!!? Say you fancied a P bass back then but your GAS/taste changed to a Jazz...gutted! I think i'd forget it was coming.

I don't like the ying yang on instruments, it puts me off the Warwick Stage II Streamer with those inlays. I just think its a lil tacky. Its not a major put off but for the money! This coming from a man with a red burst bolt of lightening on a metallic gold guitar...Glad to hear your enjoying the Fodera though!
