Charvel Jake E. Lee Sig Pro-Mod

Bobby — Thu, 02 Oct 2025 15:47:30 +0000

Here’s a quick rundown of Charvel Jake E. Lee Sig Pro-Mod in its pearl / white finish — the kind of guitar that’s part tribute, part high-performance workhorse:

It’s wrapped in an iridescent Pearl White finish (often described as “Charvel-ized” white) with a black pickguard and black hardware for contrast.
The body is alder, and the neck is bolt-on maple reinforced with graphite rods.
The fingerboard is rosewood with a compound radius from 12″ to 16″, and it has 21 jumbo frets with rolled edges to make it smooth under the fingers.
Electronics are interesting: the bridge pickup is a Seymour Duncan JB SH-4 humbucker, and the neck + middle are DiMarzio SDS-1 DP111 single-coils. You get a lot of tonal flexibility with that combo.
It uses a hardtail bridge with black base plate (so no tremolo), and Charvel-branded tuning machines with pearl buttons add a vintage touch.
Other niceties: heel-mount truss rod wheel (nice for quick neck adjustments), gloss body finish with satin urethane on the neck back, as well as a typical 25.5″ scale length.

Kiesel Solo Telecaster – Blue Stained Swamp Ash Finish

Bobby — Wed, 01 Oct 2025 18:40:43 +0000

The Kiesel Solo is like a Telecaster with a gym membership — familiar shape, but souped up with all the modern comforts. It keeps that classic single-cut look but adds things like a sculpted neck heel for easy high-fret access, optional bevels, and a super smooth bolt-on neck. You can pick 22 or 24 frets, stainless steel if you want, and the 25.5″ scale keeps it in classic T-style territory while still feeling built for speed.

The blue stain over swamp ash finish really pops, showing off the wood grain under a thin satin coat. It’s versatile enough for twang, rock, or even heavier stuff, but still carries that sleek “modern Tele” vibe. In short, it’s the Tele you grab when you love the old school look but don’t want to fight old school limitations.
