Panos A. Arvanitis - Charvel Jake E. Lee PurpleBurst replica
Jake E. Lee has always been one of my favorite guitarists. A guitarist with incredible technical and compositional ability. However, Charvel never released my favorite model, which is the purple burst. So I assigned the task to the Greek instrument maker Nikos Taliadouros. And here is the result of this project. Some changes related to Jake E. Lee's original Charvel Purple Burst were made according to my own requirements. Scalloped neck and Dimarzio HS-3 on neck position for more attack and bite. Also, the position of the pickup selector was placed as in a classic fender Stratocaster.
The amazing paint job has done by Makris Lefteris
