DC03. custom 'Jem Fresno' project.


Hello ...

long time ago, i opened a thread with this guitar but i lost the pics. i repeat here again.

this project is a Ibanez Jem style. i will name DC03 'JEM Fresno'. here the original idea:



but I had to change the project. the neck work of the "luthier" was very bad, so here is the new idea:



I think that now looks much better!!!



specifications DC03:

- Body: ash with clear pickguard and mahogany cover plates.
- Neck: Ibanez RG570 superwizard neck, made in Japan, AANJ, bubinga stripe.
- Bridge: Ibanez Lo Pro Edge.
- Tuners: Gotoh.
- Pickups: Ibanez HB2 (Rg565) on bridge, Dimarzio H4 on neck, and ibanez S1 single. balck colors.
- hardware: Gold.
- Finished: Natural honey or ambar.



i bought the body to sims custom shop (scs) from e-bay. his announcement said that it is a original ibanez body .... later, i discovered that the body came from monsterguitarshop . the body was very bad conditions and didn't fit anything, with many problems . this was my first 'luthier' work and I was able to fix the body.


and here my other projects:

DC01 'Jem Woods': DC01 (this guitar is finished).
DC02 'Jem Intense Rock II': DC02 (this guitar is finished).
DC03 'Jem Fresno': this thread (this guitar is finished).
DC04 'PGM Black': DC04 (isn't finished).
DC05 'RG custom Quilted': DC05 (isn't finished).
DC06 'RG Swirl': DC06 (canceled).
DC07 'Jem Spanish Swirl': future project (of course, I reserved the number '07' for a Jem )
DC08 'JCR Custom Ghostrider #1': DC08 (this guitar is finished).
DC09 'JCR Custom Ghostrider #2': DC09 (this guitar is finished).
