A replica of the axe that Vai shredded, teased and strangled in the movie in a 'guitar duel' with the hapless Ralph Macchio, this Jackson guitar is apparently a one-off made in the US Jackson Custom Shop.
According to the seller, this particular axe features an oil-finished early-80s style Charvel neck (read: wide and flat but not too skinny at the back) with a compound radius fingerboard with rolled edges, ash body, Seymour Duncan JB and '59 humbuckers and a Floyd Rose trem. All topped off with a stunning Candy Apple Sparkle finish.
If only I had that guitar in my hands right now....My dream search for that guitar would be over.
ReplyDeleteBut what's with the sparkle? It sure does not seem sparkly in the film..
