Jackson custom shop

[Exo-metal]

It may be time but where to place an order on the west coast?

 

[japetus]

What are you wanting to do?

22 ss fret archtop skinny roundhorn, dark stained(not this color) all koa maybe? single pup w/reverse inlays and matching hs. I've had this picture forever. Not sure who to talk to these days to place an order really.

Good luck. I tried for years to place a Jackson or Charvel custom order a while back with several dealers (Matt's Music, Music Zoo, etc) and Jackson said "no" every time.

The only orders they would accept from non-endorsed artists were just custom selects (ie, minor color, hardware, or inlay options). Some dealers could place custom orders if it was a run of several guitars.

Schecter or ESP will still take total one-off custom orders.

It wouldn't hurt to call Capitol Guitars in St Paul MN long time Jackson dealer. Capitolguitars.com 6512258888

I would be shocked if Jackson would build that. If they do expect to pay over $10k for that build and at least a 3 year wait.

 

[Exo-metal]

I anticipated this bf even attempting it. Things are far different these days unfortunately.

Could you get a high end store to order it for themselves and pre-arrange a buy off them,as I know some stores seem to somehow get custom shop jacksons made for the store? Just an idea.

Have you tried the “don’t you know who I am” approach?

 

[Exo-metal]

This is more plausible. We KNOW it worked in the past...

Diablo guitars ?

 

[Gitfiddler]

Looks killer! Maybe check with Wild West guitars in Pasadena.

I'm not sure about this specific design (it looks not very Jackson like) but Sweetwater is capable of placing Jackson CS orders. Wait time is retarded though.

Time to call you rep and have him ask if those picks are working out for you

 

[Metlupass2]

I'd say you have a 0.0 chance of getting that specific guitar made unfortunately.

 

[Exo-metal]

Setting expectations I see lol

 

[Exo-metal]

Any smaller builder recommendations on the west coast welcome!

The good ol' days at Jackson have been over for many years back when it used to build truly one off customs.

I would try to message Metal Joe Williams, Master Builder at Jackson. Maybe try messaging him on Instagram.

I don't have insta or the face...I NEED RT
If Joe is that metal he will contact me. My email is phaserunner@hotmail.com Tell him that the last forum on the net needs his help and there is still players from back in the day who remember the titans there.
This should light the fires of the forge once again...
