Joan Jett Signature Melody Maker

[Rocket]

Finally found a source for this and ordered mine today. After a couple small mods I intend to gig this to death: Joan Jett Signature Melody Maker

 

[sunvalleylaw]

That looks like a very fun rocker. Congrats!

For some reason I thought you ordered this already from Sweetwater.

Anyway, looking forward to hearing the reviews. Can you share what sort of mods you are looking to do?

Sweetwater didn't get any and couldn't even get a lead time on getting one... finally found one in North Houston.

They are a very cool looking guitar I gotta admit. What's even more outagous is that a guy my ages actually has a Runaway's album at home somewhere....

 

[mrmudcat]

Hey brother what mods ya doing? I plan on ordering one soon..........hopefully.:whatever:

 

[Rocket]

Got mine at Fuller's Vintage Guitar... $6C's & change, free shipping, no tax. Should be here on Friday.
Gotta get it first... I want to try out a SD Hot Rail Stacked Single in it. I'll try out a few pup options.

Oh man I saw that git the other day and thought I would sure like to take that for a ride, wide open:rockon:

I'd love to take Joan Jett for a ride :AOK:

Cool guitar by the way. I'm waiting to try one and will buy it too if I like it.

See current pics before mounting... lookin' a bit crackhoish these days:

 

[Ch0jin]

is it just me or does the combination of unzipped pants and the screen behind her saying "insert disc" reveal some kind of cosmic irony......

Yeah, but I don't think she plays for that team... or so I've heard.

Not that there's anything wrong with that (obscure Seinfeld reference). I still have a huge crush on her. She's my rock and roll goddess fantasy :AOK: Punk, leathers, guitars, all tatt'd up...

*sigh* it's just dreamy!

Pffft...you can call it Alpo and I'd still eat it...

Yikes!... I'm sure there's an abundance of diseases out huntin' you down. Good luck with that.

Rocket,

Posting the pic of JJ took some of the sizzle out of the guitar.

I'm at work and can't post pics, but quick someone post a nice pic of a Melody Maker.

Must turn away.

 

[sunvalleylaw]

I still really like her and think she could look really good, but she should not "try so hard" to hold on to that particular look. I also think the makeup resembles this lady:

This shot was taken while Joan was all over the airwaves back in the day. :rockon:

Fortunately, it doesn't keep her from selling out & rockin' most venues! I'm still a fan!

 

[sunvalleylaw]

I am sure it is still a great rockin' show. It isn't all about how you look in unzipped pants. I am excited for you to get that guitar and hear more about it too. It just looks like hard drivin' fun to me.

that there is sig material.... :bravo: :rotflmao:

Joan strikes me as someone who would be quite clean. She could sit on my face for days...

Heh-heh... then you haven't "hung" with many active touring musicians.

[just strum]

So few words and such a comical thread.

Now, who was buying what?

 

[Kazz]

Rocket....did you get the pink model?

 

[just strum]

Yikes!... I'm sure there's an abundance of diseases out huntin' you down. Good luck with that.

I think we are seeing examples of people that may be out on work release programs after serving some time. There are probably some that might admit they did, sorry I mean know Drake.

 

[dws]

Cool axe ya got there. Should be a lot of fun.

 

[Rocket]

JJ finally arrived, (damn the holiday shipping!) Exactly as described.
Hot, hot BurstBucker3... won't be needing to change that out after all. Couple sharp fret ends will need to dress up. Feels just slightly fat in the hand for me (normal, as I prefer a very narrow fretboard.)
Nicest Gibson case I own. They must have changed vendors again... that last (Canadian) vendor's cases were crap!
Here's a quick shot. Sorry bout the flash... we live in a cave:

 

[Guitar Gal]

Looks sweet Rocket :rockon: Have fun playing her!

Did the Joan Jett CD come with the guit?

GG

 

[warren0728]
