Help me identify this guitar

I've had this carcass of a guitar for the last year now. From what I can tell, it's a very nice guitar that needs some TLC. Anyway have an idea WHAT IT IS? And if you know what it is, what's it worth?

Here's what I know...
Set neck
Body looks like mahogany
Neck looks like maple
Ebony fretboard with HUGE frets!
Routed for non-recessed Floyd Rose trem
H/S/S pup configuration
Front routed
At one point had a pickguard

HELP me figured this sucker out!

Edit: It's a set neck.

USA Jackson maybe? Old school ESP?

Elysian · 05-28-2006, 03:08 AM

uh thats set neck. looks like a jackson neck headstock, but god knows what it is, it doesn't look like any jackson i've ever seen...

is that copper shielding lining the cavity and pickup routes?

and looking at my Rhoads V, the headstock on that guitar of yours, the point is a little longer looking to me...

Upon a close inspection, I believe you are correct, sir. Good catch. Got any idea WHAT it is?

Elysian · 05-28-2006, 03:11 AM

the body almost reminds me of the evh frankenstrat thing, but with a bolt on neck glued into place and the heel contoured to fit... its really hard to say, its a very unique looking guitar for sure.

That's called the "throw me in the trash and forget about me 2000", sir.

Elysian · 05-28-2006, 03:12 AM
