  • Picture Request Thread: Stars ! Jackson or Charvel !

    Basicaly, im about ready to put in an order to GMW for either a Rhoads body w/ reverse headstock and single hhumbucker. Or A San Dimas Charvel clone with a few modern updates of course.

    But the problem is, aside from the gallery, I cant find any good photo's of Star bodied guitars.

    Can somone do me a fantastic favor and post some pictures for me to inspect and help make up my mind ?

    Thanks all ! [img]graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

      BTW, a star body is basically a Gibson Explorer with a Piece cutout of the bottom. Eddie Van Halen may have been the first to use this design when he cutup his ibanez explorer.

              <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Beautiful guitar. Im just looking for idea's and general pictures of star boddied guitars. I was thinking of ordering a GMW star w/ a strat headstock and a blood drip finish, but im having second thoughts on the blood drip.

              So in reality, any pictures help ! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

                  Kenn,

                  I think you know where I got it! [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

                  BTW, I still can't thank you enough! I really love it and you asked a totally fair price. I know alot of people were considering getting it and switching it to a floyd, but having learned to play on a Tune-O-matic I love it. BTW, I tried a Duncan Custom 5 in the bridge. Sounds great..almost exactly like the Anderson.

                  Rich
