I´m currently working as a cleaner and today I was cleaning the local service center for the mentally disabled. There´s all kinds of activity possibilities in the center, like wood shops, handicraft shops, music rooms etc. I was wiping the floor of the music room when this Charvel on the wall...

I bought the Entwistle HVX for my project, felt interested for cheapo pickup for cheapo project. Since I´m home for a weekend after two weeks in military service I thought I´d try it in my Jackson. Cheap pickup, but damn it sounds good. It cleans up really nicely when rolling the vol down...

A little while ago I took my Jackson as a little project. Quite beat up and I was unsatisfied with it. I sanded off the thick finish, bought new saddles to the bridge, put its original pickups back (just to try if they sound better now) but now screwed into wood instead of using pickup rings...

I haven´t seen this anywhere in the internet. Won´t be a problem though because the bridge needed some work anyway, the guitar in case is my Jackson JS with Jackson licensed FR. Just curious, has anyone else faced the simiral thing? P.S Don´t care about the saddle heights.

Hi everybody. Today I faced something almost heartbreaking. I noticed that my #1 and also my first electric (Got it when I was eleven) had fallen and the neck kinda broke. Nothing big, the holes were burst so the neck screws weren´t able to hold the neck in place anymore. It could be fixed and...
