Sneak Peek: NAMM 2012 Jackson Custom Finishes
Here are a few images of Mike’s NAMM 2012 Jacksons. None of these have final clear, nor are they fully built out (obviously).. but you get an idea of how cool they WILL be. Each guitar has a VERY elaborate fingerboard that you cannot see…. but will bring the whole package together… Can’t wait to see these hanging on the wall in Anaheim in just a few weeks!

A Week In Guitars 7-15-11
It has been a busy week, so I thought I would just to a single week-end post.
The first few guitars are headed to BC Rich and then on to the Summer NAMM show. Next you will see a Jackson soloist with a Blackhawk”s Logo for a customer named Todd. Drew, in Canada is the proud owner of the “Skelly Warrior and Lizard Monster.” The shop is FULL of guitars… so look for a Blitzkrieg of art next week!!

A Batch of Cool Guitars…
The Godzilla Guitar is just plain fun. Who doesn’t love a Super-sized Lizard bringing havoc to all it sees? The Blue and white bass was painted for Rick Savage of Def Leppard. He is on a special charity tour and at some point this bass will be given away to one lucky person. The last guitar is a complete restoration of a prototype Jackson model – #1. I just love the Hot Rod flames and stripes on this one!

The NAMM Aluminum Guitar & Spotlight Music
Spotlight Music – a Jackson dealer local to us – just a bit North in Fort Collins – was the lucky recipient of the Jackson NAMM highlight guitar… The aluminum topped, ground and airbrushed, Kelly. It sure didnt spend much time on the shelf! It is already gone… but not before I was able to grab some BEAUTIFUL images of this outstanding guitar.
