    This is the first to be finished - neon pink which is impossible to capture with a camera.

    Good luck with the venture Jaden. So why the decision to brand these as distinct from Jaden Rose guitars ?

    simply because as you pointed out, they are distinctly different from the natural wood theme of the Jaden guitars.

    gotcha !  been meaning to call you for ages, somehow when I get in from work, you have already gone home :p

    Love these, they appeal very much to my pending mid-life crisis (40 later this year!)

  • Nice headstock! Lots of fendery'inspired guitars really fall at that, but that does look pretty sweet indeed.

    They look good! Although not the kind of guitar I play personally these days.

    They are epic! Any chance of someone putting one through it's paces.

    Fred Brum* or Lyle Watt possibly?

    *he might not even notice it's not an ERG . . .

    Lyle is coming to visit soon.. perhaps the pair of us should do something.. a performance.. a duet?
    I dunno, its gotta be 80's of course..  songs that spring to mind

    Alison hell

    Balls to the wall

    Metal church

    Summer nights - this makes my arm ache, dont vote for it !

    Viking Kong (perhaps not 80's but awesome) or if thats too far away, technical difficulties ?

  • Technical difficulties - isn't it a comfortably numb jam gone bananas? Do it!

    Or anything by steel panther. Super sonic sex machine would be pretty great.

    GOOD NEWS !

    In my rush to get the Salvo Reload model ready and the website up to date I have to admit that I had a "educated guess" at the pricing for this model.
    I do have a system for pricing every model of guitar and so have finally run the Reload through it.

    the good news is that I did overestimate the price and that its dropped fairly significantly.

    hardtails are now £899
    trem's are now £999

    both supplied with standard pickups.

    more good news is that @theguitarweasel has developed a unique pickup for the Salvo models to bring out the best of the 80's vibe and he has done a fantastic job! 
    an Oil City Pickups Custom Salvo upgrade set will be available at just an additional £100
