Through the blue mist you'll find an expertly crafted Jake E Lee signature from Chavel locked, loaded, and ready to rock! Whether you're using it to Bark At The Moon, trying to chase down Mr. Crowley, or simply looking for that Ultimate Sin, let this be your trusty companion.

Made in Charvel's USA factory by their best luthiers, this Jake E Lee signature axe is a racehorce. The neck is lightning fast and the pickups are HOT and will cut through a mix like a hot samurai sword cutting through some room-temperature butter. Whether you're trying to play all of the notes at break-neck speed or you're looking to lay down some rhythmic ideas, this beauty can handle it all. The neck and fretboard feel great from the nut down to the very last fret and the custom Duncan and DiMarzio pickups combine to provide a surprising amount of versatility. Sure, the guitar is designed to play some heavier rock styles, but you don't get to be where Jake E Lee is in his career by being a one trick pony. And this guitar, along with Jake, is anything but that. The bridge pickup gets you that heavy metal tone you're after while the middle and neck pickups can give you warm, smooth, rich, and creamy tones. Don't let the simple aesthetics and simple control layout of this guitar fool you... This is a playable work of art with immaculate attention to detail.

Jake E Lee's original Blue Burst guitar gained notoriety during his stint with Ozzy Osbourne, as he recorded and performed live with the famous instrument throughout the band's pivotal Bark at the Moon and Ultimate Sin years. Charvel® has recreated an unmistakable replica of Lee's original model down to the very last detail with the vivacious Jake E Lee USA Signature Blue Burst.

The Jake E Lee USA Signature Blue Burst features a poplar body, bolt-on quartersawn maple neck and 12" radius rosewood fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and white dot inlays.

Equipped with a versatile customized Seymour Duncan® JB Alnico II humbucking bridge pickup, this model can handle a diverse range of tones from sweet and warm to aggressive and distorted. It's also supercharged with two powerful single-coil DiMarzio® SDS-1 pickups in the middle and neck for extra gain with a deeper, darker tone. The pickups are controlled with a five-way blade switch and single volume knob for a variety of tonal possibilities.

Available in a mesmerizing Blue Burst, this signature axe also features black Gotoh® tuning machines and a brass Charvel hardtail bridge and output jack plate. A deluxe hardshell case is included.
