No, yesterday was just the taping for the new season. It hasn't aired, not exactly sure when the new season starts.

I believe they start to air in June
 
Is that show on VH-1 Classic?
I've never seen the show. Just clips from the website.

From what I've seen those guys bore me to tears, but I will watch a segment if its an artist I really dig.
 
I think the new season starts June 1st. With Kix as the guests.
 
Anyone know where his original white Charvel/Fender guitar is, or who owns it? He doesn't have it anymore, and I'm curious if anyone knows where it might be?
 
I've heard about addiction issues but have yet to hear somebody speak to them beyond simple hearsay. I also know somebody who is close to Jake who says that those stories are bogus and that he simply became disenchanted with the business and became somewhat of a recluse. I don't know the truth, but the person that I know with seemingly the most credibility says there were no addiction issues.

A lot of his stuff was actually lost through non-payment of a storage locker that went to auction...not pawned off as most seem to believe. Now that Jake is making a move back toward the spotlight, perhaps he'll fill us in on his absence and put the rumors to rest.
 
I don't know...I don't think he'd fess up to loosing his iconic gear because he couldn't pay a storage fee...makes him look kinda bad, 'ya know ? Whatever the story is...I'm a HUGE fan and glad to see him back AND with Charvel to boot !
 
Which of the amplifier manufacturers on here is going to step up to the plate with an endorsement deal for Jake E. Lee ... Warren is using Diezel...Peter, are you listening ?
 
I know he gave away his blue burst Charvel, don't remember him getting rid of the white one.
 
Jake's been using an Orange head lately, along with some Marshalls and a EVH head. He was using an EVH on the show with a vintage Marshall cab with greenbacks. But that was all brought in for him. Sounded AWESOME in the room, hopefully that translates to the show recording.
 
Somebody get him a Cameron...quick ! Oh yeah...CAN'T GET ONE ! LOL

I'd be happy to endorse him if he's willing to play my amps live. Jake - gimme a call!

On the video for "Shot in the Dark". White SG with one P90.

Wasn't Jake's Charvel humbucker an Allan Holdsworth with a double row of screws and not a JB ?

No, it was a Fender strat worked over at Charvel. They reduced the headstock, re-logoed with Charvel. If you notice that neck on the original white one has a bullet truss rod...Charvel don't do that ;)

I wasn't saying his guitar was a Charvel...I know it's a Fender that's been "Charvelized". I have a Japanese only market verision of it with a Strat Headstock and the bullet truss rod adjuster. I was referring to the pick up being a Holdsworth model and not a Jeff Beck...

Actually, they didn't do it on Charvels back in the 80s, but they did the bullet truss rod on the Custom Shop limited run of 10 Jake clones that I had one of. Funny thing is they wouldn't do the angled neck and middle singles pick guard or a rosewood fretboard because of the ESP endorsement . Mine had an ebony board, but by the time I got it, someone had put in an accurate slanted neck/middle pick guard...
