Hey SF1993

What about that one? do you have any details about this guitar? It's not a Kauer. :-)
Try 'search google for this image'. It comes up on Billy Rowe's flickr stream alongside other 'Rock'n'Roll Relics'. Couldn't swear to it being his work, but probably is.

Thanks UlricvonCatalyst!

It seems as if it would be one of Rowe's!
I'm going to ask him so we will see! :-)

Sorry man, couldn’t find any info. Your best bet is to just go custom. Recently got a JM made by Revelator guitars.

New to this forum but I just HAD to sign up when I saw this thread.
Beautiful stuff.
I was given a baritone neck because the previous owner didn’t like it so I’m building a body for it.

Hey guys! I finally got some information on that one!
It's indeed one of Billy Rowe's rock'n'roll relics! (Thanks again Ulric for the final hint!)
He made it some years ago and would build one like that again for about the same price I'd get a guitar at my local luthier (plus shipping to Europe and customs charges though).

The color is Ice Blue Metallic by the way!
I honestly didn't notice the metallic touch of it on the picture given. Could be more obvious in others. 'Till some months ago I thought I was no fan of metallic finishes at all - now it seems as IBM would be the second (CFM being the first) one I actually seem to love! At least on pictures... OSG what have you done to me?

Dear God what is that beautiful color called? :w00t: Gorgeous guitar aside, that color looks amazing with the pearl, cream and rosewood specs. Is it just the top, and stained natural back and sides, or is the whole guitar that color?

I'm loving this PRS meets JM vibe. Wish Fender would create a flame top Jaguar that wasn't that ugly foto stuff.

Jesus that guitar has had me GASing for months. :?
Honestly one of the only things I don't like about Fenders other than teles is the contours, they always want to slip forward and out of my lap when I'm playing.

Haha! I feel exactly the same way about contours. I’ll post more pictures later on, this one is double bound ;)

Sorry for the delay. This guitar was built and finished by Mr. Rhoney and I can't find the build thread any longer. However, it was inspired by this bronze Jag build which should get you in the right color range. viewtopic.php?f=8&t=50946&start=15

Also, the whole body is finished in that metallic bronze color. I actually initially wanted the headstock to be matching bronze, but when I pulled it out of the case and saw the wood, I knew it was right.
