Fantastic Recreation of Gary Moore Charvel

In my Google images search, for Warren DeMartini dinkys actually, I came across the Japanese link of a recreation of Gary Moore's way cool 1986 Charvel Superstrat built for him by the San Dimas custom shop.
It started life as a double humbucker route and is unusual for the amount of pickguard screws, well to Charvel guys anyway

.
The great range and tone of this guitar which is a single humbucker with a flush mount Floyd Rose Original tremelo, ala EVH, Steve Stevens.
This built from scratch tribute is dead to nuts accurate and I wish I could read Japanese, in fact I think I will send the link to my Japanese fellow Malmsteen fan Masa for translation!
Here is the link:

Here is a Photobucket album I have assembled of photos:

Yes, and on Warren's Performance Guitars guitars he likes the same thickness all the way up and down the neck.

And as for the original Gary Moore Charvel, his tone on the pro shot Stockholm show from '87 is awesome. I've never heard EMGs sound so good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hapJe1qeVZs

I've got the full Stockholm show I downloaded from a torrent site, and his version of The Loner actually goes on for over 15 minutes, significantly longer than what is shown on this youtube clip.

That is not a real guitar just a model.

This is the real thing.

Thanks 908

That's one of the cool features of my Washburn SS Dinky the awesome meaty neck.

Love and peace

yngwie, I think 908 was just pointing out the fact that those pics were of a scaled down model, and that's why it looks like it has a baseball bat sized neck.
