DXMG Project

[S1I2F3]

Without a clear overcoat, there would always be the possibility of sleeve/forearm/thigh contact catching the edge of the print, so I sealed the edge with a small stripe of the clear overlaminate. It is virtually invisible (noticable only within 6-12 inches) and makes the transition nice and smooth.

That's what I was curious about, seems like a simple enough solution. Thanks for sharing the pic's!

Stunning, simply stunning. Never would've thought the brownish tiger pattern could work so well with bright green.

Well done, love it.

I know it's a little late, but I finally got around to recording a video with my Tiger DXMG/DKMG. To reiterate, I put in a Dimarzio 36th Anniversary PAF, and the rest of the hardware is bone stock, *including* the tremolo block... just thought I'd throw that out there. I think it sounds great, and it plays like butter. Who says imports can't hang with the USA's?

BTW, who's excited about the new VH album?

Thanks for the comment, and to all the others who checked out the build. I'm definitely planning on doing another Jackson sometime in the future, so I'll be sure to share again!

It has a lot to do with whose hands the guitar is in as well... The better player you are, the less you need to blame everything on the guitar itself.

This has got to be one of my favorite build threads out there outstanding job. I find myself going back and reading it over and over again. just started on two refinishes had to check it out again. great video also but need to switch the chrome bar to a black one.

I appreciate it brother, hope your projects turn out well. And regarding the chrome bar, call me crazy but I like the look of it on this particular instrument. Reminds me of Dimebag's "Far Beyond Driven" Dean ML:

Great build/hot rod. Great video. Wow. That just rocks. I have made mutts back in the day. You inspired me to go back to doing that again.
Bravo.

Man, project guitars are just so addicting, it's hard to see a guitar without thinking of what I could do to it haha!

Nicely done. Way cool of you to share your findings.
