Jerrybird has come home to roost

I wanted to share my new guitar with the group.

Another masterpiece by Andrew Olson. It took a while but as trite as it sounds worth the wait.

Bridge and middle DiMarzio super II humbuckers, neck DiMarzio SDS I single coil.

Pickup Selector is a six way that looks like a regular Gibson switch.

The first two toggles split the humbuckers, the third one engages the on board effects loop and buffer (Waldo). Cable and wheel box. I will have to train to use it fully.

Steinberger tuners, Feiten nut, stainless steel frets, Tone pro bridge w/titanium saddles, TP tailpiece. All wood on the top ebony. Silver inlay on jerrybird plate, which covers the loop and buffer and where the battery is tucked.

The headstock plate with engraved "Jerrybird" a total surprise from Andrew, the font is "Griffiny". Hard to see I know, phone pics as I don't have a working camera at the moment.

Plate inlay by Larry Robinson.

I have played it thru a Deluxe with JBL D123 and '67 Vibrolux with Weber Californias. Sounds pretty amazing to my ears. I will try to get a clip one of these days.

I really dig that thing. The replicas and clones posted here are, of course, totally badass.. But the 'inspired by' pieces such as The Jerrybird are what really tickle my fancy.. Congrats

Thank you, Andrew did a great job.

I am still learning it and I have not yet played it at volume with a band.

Slow going finding some players for a jam band start up here.

All good things...
