Player's Perspective

Made in Charvel's USA factory, this Jake E Lee signature axe is a racehorce. This one's an absolute beauty - the Pearl White with Lavender Hue finish is one of the most subtly gorgeous finishes we've seen. It's white from a distance, but when the light hits it just right, the hits of lavender reveal themselves. Absolutely stunning - this alone makes this guitar worth checking out in person.

As the name implies, the Speed neck is lightning-fast and the pickups are HOT. Your fingers will race up and down the fretboard, and your tone will cut through a mix like a hot samurai sword cutting through some room-temperature butter. Whether you're trying to play all of the notes at break-neck speed or you're looking to lay down some rhythmic ideas, this beauty can handle it all.

The neck and fretboard feel great from the nut down to the very last fret and the custom Duncan and DiMarzio pickups combine to provide a surprising amount of versatility. Sure, the guitar is designed to play some heavier rock styles, but you don't get to be where Jake E Lee is in his career by being a one trick pony. And this guitar, along with Jake, is anything but that. The bridge pickup gets you that heavy metal vibe you're after while the middle and neck pickups can give you warm, smooth, rich, and creamy tones.

Don't let the simple aesthetics and simple control layout of this guitar fool you... This is a playable work of art with immaculate attention to detail. Whether you're using it to Bark At The Moon, trying to chase down Mr. Crowley, or simply looking for that Ultimate Sin, let this be your trusty companion. 

Manufacturer's Description

Guitar virtuoso Jake E Lee blazed trails in the 1980s with Ratt and Rough Cutt before landing his legendary gig as Ozzy Osbourne’s lead guitarist. His acclaimed career continues today with Red Dragon Cartel, and Charvel has been there every step of the way. Charvel honors the dynamic guitarist with the Jake E Lee USA Signature guitar, based on the distinctive white "Charvel-ized" instrument the great guitarist has played ever since he bought it new back in 1975.

One of the most requested models ever, this 25.5" scale signature So-Cal model features an ash body, bolt-on quartersawn maple neck and 12"-16" compound radius rosewood fingerboard with 21 medium jumbo frets and white dot inlays.

A Seymour Duncan JB humbucking bridge pickup and single-coil DiMarzio SDS-1 middle and neck pickups fuel this versatile axe, which also features a five-way blade switch, single volume control knob, hardtail bridge and Gotoh tuning machines.

Wrapped in an iridescent Pearl White with Lavender Hue finish, the Jake E Lee USA Signature model is sure to steal the spotlight.
