VVV Jackson silver two pickups

Post by mylittleguitar »

The silver and purple sparkle VVV used for the All System Go tour in 1988.
This guitar is the previous one with an added neck pickup. This add shows that the guitar was originally design for a single pickup. Vinnie has to cut the sides of the pickup ring to fit with the body shape. On his next guitars, the shape will be slightly different, I'll show you with the Carvin.
There's also a little switch near the upper knobs for the different ways of selection of the pickups.
For this 1/4 scale miniature guitar, I created 135 parts and used 28 mini screws. The strings are hand-twisted with electric wires.

I like neck pickups but I think the job could have been done better. I think it could have been a bit closer to the bridge.

Great work on your replica, as usual.
