Will it be at the amp show?
Unfortunately, I don't think I'll have time to fix the grounding problem, so probably not. I'll have a couple of cool custom shop Charvel's though as well as my Suhr Henderson strat and my Suhr 7 string. I think Curt (Chubtone) is gonna bring his Charvel Custom Shop as well...

Steve

I wish I could be there

I'm bringing the Fat Checkers Charvel Custom Shop from NAMM 2010 with that crazy swirling checkerboard pattern! It's gonna be my Drop D guitar for the show...

I just plugged it into my Cameron Aldrich into one of my cabs and the damn thing is humming like a sonofabitch. Missing gound for sure. Gotta take it apart to replace the bridge anyway, so I'll fix the grounding problem and put in an EVH zero friction pot as well - love those things!

Congrats! Cool guitar. :rock:

While you're at it, put a pickguard on there that is cut for the uncovered humbucker.

Drives me nuts when I see a pickguard cut for a covered humbucker when the pickup doesn't have one. :aww:
 
Jake's original Charvel-ized Strat still had the stock neck...Charvel reshaped the neck profile and cut down the CBS headstock to the smaller Strathead shape. Surprisingly they left it as a 3-bolt. The body was routed to accomodate the slanted singles (Dimarzio SDS-1) and the humbucker (Duncan Holdsworth prototype) and painted white (originally a 3-tone sunburst...there are pics of it out there somewhere).

His ESP sig model did have a Gibson scale length (24 3/4).
 
Damn Steve, I hate to say it but, I like this one more than the Custom RR V you have coming soon. :rock:
