Trash to Thrash #26 - Lava Crackle Kelly & Royal Nebula Rockmaster (Haro) - S2E06 (Peavey & Jackson) 

Mark, you’ve coined the term “Hackson” but whenever you paint a Jackson with Crackle you don’t call it a “Crackson.” You should make the “Crackson” a thing. I also thought about “crackleson” but “Crackson” just sounds cooler.

The Kelly crackle finish looks bad ass and the Peavey Rock Master looks like brand new.It is always great to see you going through the teething problems of building guitars.

WOW mark that crackle Kelly looks cool I love it and that blue peavey guitar next to it is pretty awesome as well can’t wait for the episode in an hour

I love your work and your show for being approachable and completely honest. You're one of the few that shows your whole process, your improvements, your mistakes and how you fix them. This show has already taught me so much and gave me so much insight. Keep up the great work!

Great job on the Crackle Kelly. The 2nd paint job is looks sooo much better. It pays off to do it right when you go with your gut when something isn't right and your customers will notice that you care to make a great product!

I like the way the Peavey Rockmaster turned out. Nice 👍

I love the fact that he brings old guitars back from the dead or gives them a new life. He could make his own boutique guitars but I like the trash to thrash because no one is really doing it like him.

Dude I love your show. I say this every episode…. Truly love the art of guitar building… I had the privilege to spend a week at Peavey in the mid 90s absolutely great product’s

The Lava Crackle Kelly is an absolute work of art Mark. Everything about it is just drool worthy!

The Crackle Kelly is GORGEOUS!!

I love the blue/purple guitar body👏

I wasn't sold on the blue finish until I saw the finished product and now it's one of my favorites. Well done!

That Rhoads concept looked cool af

That crackle is beautiful man.

Love that song,great sweeps and really cool timings on your playing.👍

love the crackle

Matching custom case is a badass touch!! Love it!

nice work dude, very pro finish man.

Looks awesome as always mark its always noice with the Murray touch with the gold hardware and the killswitches are amazing

Both came out badass!!!!

That Kelly is awesome, great job Mark!

looks amazing man! keep it up i love the content

Another awesome episode Mark. That Kelly... WOW! Keep it up man.

One badass rig bro orange fire with crackle killed it thanks for sharing bro 😎

So much fun to watch, for all of us guitar nerds!

Both of those guitars are so sick 😆

The rock master is 🔥🔥🔥

Dude does great work , every guitar he does looks killer

Man that lava looks incredible now! I love the look of orange and black, I’m doing my first guitar with those colors, same floyd and EMGs. I love it!!

Two more awesome guitars! And your song at the end slaps.

Both those axes look great. The hardware works perfectly w the color of the guitars.

guitar collection video could be cool, u allways talk about your insane collection a shot video about it would be great

I liked the first paint job on the Kelly better but it still looks awesome

The headstock burst looks really good. The body burst in my opinion could have had more contrast but I'm commenting before it's been repainted. Good job duder! Haha you had the same thought!

The crackle guitar is so cool I love the electronics setup!

Personally was never big on crackle finishes until I saw Brandon Ellis's Jackson Kelly a few years ago. Since then I've dug it, especially on a Kelly. Just signed up for your Patreon. Let's see if luck is on my side. You killed these man! That Kelly is probably my favorite one I've seen on here.

Yeah now I see it in the light tat crackle is popping

That Kelly is Awesome and I'm a sucker for Emgs and a floating trem!!!Guess just growing up in the 90s with a jackson dinky reverse with emgs👍🤘Mark,you the man!!!Great content as always!!!

Great episode as always looking forward to the next one!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love all of these guitars you make! Not a huge fan of the plexiglass pickguards, but to each their own. Maybe if you beveled the edges?

That kelly is fucking awesome yeah I'm liking the 2nd paint job better now I seen it in the light all done

Whoa the blue peavy reminds me of Jake E Lee’s blue Charvel from the ultimate sin days.. looks way better than I thought it would great job

Both are awesome ! Build a crackle case for that Jackson. 👍

He builds his own cases too lol

Even the knob is blue on the peavy

Nice!

Nice!!!🤘🤘

Great Kelly... Have you tried to make the "blood splatter finish" with a sponge instead of a cup, soaking the sponge with the paint them doing the same movements?

I think you do great work. I do think the kill switch is over used. I don’t think every guitar calls for one. To each his own though. Keep reviving these guitars!

Crackle looking good but in my opinion you should work on the technic to make bigger crackles! When I painted mine I redid it 3 times until I got the crackles as big as I wanted. The way I did it was by applying an even but thicker layer of the crackle paint. If you want I can show you ☺️ Keep up with the good work!

I love that he loves putting killswitches on most of the guitars shit why not lol they look cool af. I know u can use a 2 volume to do it or u can get a cable with it on it too which I have both but I don't have a killswitch in one of my guitars... I'd love to have a charvel pimped out by this dude lol

This guy can shred

Wolfgang looks about new

crackle kelly looks cool

Pretty sure heat did that, maybe a sunspot on that specific area which stayed hotter than the other and did that Had the same issue when repainting an SG, it did that due to all the "warm spot"

Crackle wins! Badass

The crinkle comes from too thick of paint too fast. Let the base coats dry for a few days before sand , steel wool, and clear coat. A really good paint and finish takes weeks.

mark killer job i saw some good deals on reverb type project guitar and check out and ebay

This guy does such a wonderful work with whatever he has on the bench!!👌😎 well done mate

hey Mark Michael from SA Texas here I think a lot of people in the comment section agree with me when I say you need to do a dime bag Darrell tribute Dean ML guitar we lost him 17 years ago this year and his 20th anniversary of his death is coming up real soon,you should make 2 of them one left handed and one right handed 🤘🏻🤘🏻🎶🎶🎸 take care rock on! BTW that case for the peavey looks sick!

I had the same thing happen to me with crackle (white cracks). It was not letting the base coat (1k acrylic) set long enough and the crackle paint ripped the basecoat apart and exposed the primer. Montana's recommendations are very broad and unfortunately trial and error are probably the only way to really get it right.

Wow..i loved the Kelly but the Peavey surprised me.

yo i was deadass gonna buy that superman wolfgang and before i could buy it, it was sold

I love Peveays also...Love the T series...especially the T 60!!!🤘👍Later Brother!!!Love that nebula color,Freaking killer!!!

I liked the first one the best.

dat Floyd cavity doh

Wow that Kelly…you got a new Patreon now

I like both crackles but I really liked the 1st one but the 2nd one is more uniformed or matches better I guess is what I'm trying to say. The 2nd one is darker but I liked the 1st one bcuz it was lighter and darker in spots.... either way it looks great and I love Kelly's

Any way to get the crackles bigger like actual bigger brands do theirs? Only videos out there I find are ultra ultra tight patterns

Trash to Thrash: The Revenge Both look badass Maybe for the custom painted batterys it would be better to make the custom paint on a sleeve for the battery. Still amazing atention to detail, love you're stuff Congrats for the EMG sponsor!

The crackle Kelly is a hellish beauty, I dig it ! Never been a fan of crackles back in the day but now I start appreciating them. (Btw, in your 2nd attemp to clear coat it, it looks thin, so the crackle almost makes a texture on the surface. Am I right or was it just the video?) Cheers anyways !

my ocd not giving me rest seeing the gap between Floyd rose bridge and body cavity.

you should see if neck illusions would sponsor one of your videos

an alien blood wolfgang?!?

I never seen a Peavy rock master either

I wonder if a thin coat of shellac between the base color and crackle would kill any weird chemical reactions?

Great video as usual. I don't think that Kelly is a 96, though. Those 96 and 97 Japanese serial numbers weren't dated. They were from the 2000's

That clear pick guard was mad by a toddler 😂

The Crackelly looks great - i just wonder - why do you use the cavity shielding? I always thought active EMG pickups are shielded already?! Keep up the good work!

Quick question: how do you prevent the paint job from splitting up so much? I wanna try this, but without as many cracks. Kind of like the jackson rhoads crackle

Just curious how come there isn't a locking nut on the Jackson Kelly?

Nissssssssssssssssssce 🍻

does anyone know what guitar model/type that light blue teal one he is showing that other guy at 42-43 seconds? Top kinda looks like an SG but the rest does not

Hey man I had seen the bloody jackson roads and I'm wondering how much it would cost for you to do that to my 1995 jackson kelly explorer with the floating bridge just the paint nothing else

I have just found this place and I have to say it's awesome. You do great work and I'm thinking I might need to send you an email..

Love the channel but what sucks about most of the give a ways on RU-vid is if your not a patron we never are entered to win on the contests and that sucks cause people like me are faithful to our favorite channels but can't afford to pay anything but supports our favs in other ways like liking every video and share the videos and watch them and comment religiously so we really are the backbone of people's channels and we don't win anything and that sucks.ive followed the giveaways and never win anything and it's so discouraging.i wish I could help support everyone but I'm doing good to support myself and I wish I could win a guitar so I could start learning again but I'm stuck watching others doing it.😭.anyway enough of my crying I love the channel bro and would love to come help you work in your shop..cheers from Tennessee and hope you guys are well and stay safe.love the Edwards axes by the way.top shelf bro🤘🤓😎🎸🎩😷

I’ve heard time and time again that a thick layer of paint “kills the tone”. What do you think of this? You build a lot of paint and laquer on every guitar and they seem to sound fine lol

Was that intro and Institutionalized spoof lmao?

It's easy to be sponsored by EMG...I mean...there's nothing to exaggerate about! Lol And using their products is easy too! I love the original 81 but I'm wondering about the 81 variant they made. Forgot what it's called... And yeah must be nice to order a guitar like that and when it arrives you're like.."Oh a guitar is here, I wonder what it is?!" Lol

Ye but what do they sound like?

if you would do something to my ke3 how much would it be

Just wondering why you don't just sand down and repaint just the face of the guitar when that's all you messed up. Why repaint the whole thing?

Murray guitars, huh?

That Jackson Kelly is hot af

Making, building, and refinishing guitars is seriously the most satisfying thing I've ever done in my life! Better than sex. For real though.

How do I claim the picks/killswitch?

Don't know man this crackle finish of Kelly is not that good.. cracks are to small and if you are looking form distance you don't even see that it's a crackle finish. The tremolo system doesn't fit perfectly, it has to much space and you can see the cavity inside. Not that great job on a Jackson like you are presenting..

Frist one
