This is a guitar fetish build
The neck is a lefty turned upside down, reshaped the headstock , painted everything to match
I got the idea of making this when I put a Floyd in front of my Jake E Lee guitar last month to see what it would look like but I wanted to change it up a bit with a different neck
Everything you see here ( almost) was spare parts I just had to put in the time to build it
I gave it a setup last night
It's nice I'm glad I chose this neck it's really comfortable
& the glossy fretboard feels like glass but I removed all the gloss from the backside of the neck and refinished it with TruOil which I'm a big fan of

I have a new project
This is a Jackson Chris Broderick signature model I acquired from @rjmcmike a few years ago
After I filled in the neck pickup , did some body work & refinished it, I wasn't into the color so I put it away under my bed and I forgot about it
I'm going to refinish it again, put some good hardware on it with a good pickup soon
This doesn't have any fretboard inlays, I was thinking about trying Luminlays on this

Who TF forgets they have a Jackson Chris Broderick signature model? This guy...................... by @metaljay2

As I was putting this together I kept telling myself this needs black hardware so I flipped a coin
I literally left it up to chance with a coin toss
