Product Overview
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 continued with Badlands and now Red Dragon Cartel, and Charvel has been there every step of the way. Charvel honors the dynamic guitarist with the new Jake E Lee Signature Pro-Mod So-Cal, based on the distinctive white "Charvel-ized" instrument he acquired back in 1975.
One of the most requested models ever and now available at a more affordable price, this 25.5”-scale Pro-Mod signature offering features an alder body and bolt-on maple neck with graphite reinforcement and hand-rubbed satin urethane finish on the back. Built for high-performance, the 12"-16" compound radius rosewood fingerboard features comfortably rolled edges, 21 jumbo frets and white dot inlays. Neck relief tweaks can be conveniently made on the fly with the heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel.
A Seymour Duncan® JB™ SH-4 humbucking bridge pickup hits with a powerful low end and radiant highs, while the single-coil DiMarzio® SDS-1™ DP111 middle and neck pickups add punch, warmth and gain with a deeper and darker bottom-end. This versatile axe also features a five-way blade switch, single volume Strat®-style skirt control knob, hardtail bridge with black base plate and Charvel tuning machines with pearl buttons.
Primed to steal the spotlight, the Jake E Lee Signature Pro-Mod So-Cal Style 1 HSS HT RW is wrapped in an iridescent Pearl White finish with black pickguard, black hardware and licensed Fender® Strat headstock.
