Player’s Perspective

Made in Charvel’s USA factory, this Jake E Lee signature axe is a racehorce. This one’s an absolute beauty – the Pearl White with Lavender Hue finish is one of the most subtly gorgeous finishes we’ve seen. It’s white from a distance, but when the light hits it just right, the hits of lavender reveal themselves. Absolutely stunning – this alone makes this guitar worth checking out in person.

As the name implies, the Speed neck is lightning-fast and the pickups are HOT. Your fingers will race up and down the fretboard, and your tone will cut through a mix like a hot samurai sword cutting through some room-temperature butter. Whether you’re trying to play all of the notes at break-neck speed or you’re looking to lay down some rhythmic ideas, this beauty can handle it all.

The neck and fretboard feel great from the nut down to the very last fret and the custom Duncan and DiMarzio pickups combine to provide a surprising amount of versatility. Sure, the guitar is designed to play some heavier rock styles, but you don’t get to be where Jake E Lee is in his career by being a one trick pony. And this guitar, along with Jake, is anything but that. The bridge pickup gets you that heavy metal vibe you’re after while the middle and neck pickups can give you warm, smooth, rich, and creamy tones.

Don’t let the simple aesthetics and simple control layout of this guitar fool you… This is a playable work of art with immaculate attention to detail. Whether you’re using it to Bark At The Moon, trying to chase down Mr. Crowley, or simply looking for that Ultimate Sin, let this be your trusty companion.

His acclaimed career continues today with Red Dragon Cartel, and Charvel has been there every step of the way.
