Cool ax. I always liked these Jake ESPs but never got a chance to try one. I had a number of kit builds I had slapped together in sort of a Jake style. Strats with hard tails, one volume, a bucker and a slanted single coil or two buckers, or just one. I like the simplicity of it. You get a tone, resonance and sustain with hard tails that you don't get with trems.
I have a similar guitar, an inexpensive Strat-style unit at 24.75 inches. It is a lot of fun, a bit easier to play than than my 25.5 inch versions of the same thing.
Super cool guitar! I owned one in the mid 90's and used it for over 10 years until I ultimately sold it. If it was all original and had the original hard shell case I would be interested.
@@jamesraymondsmithI would put it to better use than you would I'd atleast keep it in tune I checked out your channel ya you ain't much to be laughing at anyone
@@wickedbishop i was laughing because i thought it was only one old guitar theythought was rare thinking it would cost someone an unfair fortune. i see now they are mass producing them. i dont really give a ferret shit what you think about my humble youtube channel. i see the price now at the bottom. so i looked at your site and marvel you not only have a hole in your shoe but in your head also. lol
@@jamesraymondsmithjust as I thought just a idiot you make no sense at all just so happens I've been looking for a jake e lee signature model go freaking practice
Any reasons why they used a 24 3/4 scale length neck? I'm not sure if Jake E lee Charvel neck was what scale length? or the Fernandes Jake E Lee signature model scale length?
@@identifiesas65.wheresmyche95 So the Charvel neck, Fernandes neck, ESP neck all were 24.75"? I guess the neck gives a darker tone also like gibson not snappy or twangy like a fender
@@waynegram8907the Charvels have been 25.5” scale with 21 frets, this is 24.75” with 22. Jake was apparently really into SGs and Juniors so he got a 24.75” on this model.
@@CarolineGuitarCo When did Jake E Lee start using the ESP Jake E Lee Signature models? because Badlands he is still using the Charvels guitars with the 25.5 scale length. It must have been after Badlands he started using the ESP guitars?
@@waynegram8907he’s using an ESP in this Badlands video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wyNDyW6wGVM.htmlfeature=shared - and I remember a guitar mag interview where he was showing techniques and tricks on a ESP Strat style guitar.
