Here master builder "Metal" Joe Williams details the process of creating a custom instrument for the The Black Dahlia Murder flamethrower.
John Bohlinger and the PG video crew head west to explore the two brands that helped spark hot-rodding instruments and tricking out "super strat" shredsters. Talented master builders Pasquale “Pat” Campolattano, "Metal" Joe Williams, and Dave Nichols (aka “Red Dave”) unlock the door to their twisted sanctuary and let the dust fly showing us their hands-on approach to building drag-racing guitars.

I'd love that guitar, but with an ebony board with abalone inlays!

[@Alfredo78666]

Kelly's badass!

[@luckylicks3497]

Yes, please

[@notasilicaanimus]

Would have been cool if the inlays had been made of ebony.

[@BlackpitfatherLech]

whhaaat 25,1``???? so cool

[@lyricbread]

PRS scale length.

[@evanwilliams8908]

Didn't take long from saying 'we do things the traditional way' to 'ummm yeah we we do most important part on CNC'.

[@EclipseAtDusk]

Precision, speed, and repeatability. Why spend all that time working on a Solved Part of the guitar that *doesn’t* vary widely from instrument to instrument, when you can focus on *the rest* of the instrument that actually effects how people perceive its feel?
Plus, dude, the jackson custom shop’s wait time is bad enough as is - do we really need it to be *even longer and more expensive*

[@Steaminlidz]

Wow. Cutting out a custom scale length fingerboard blank on CNC. I feel so lied to…

[@lyricbread]

CNC > Pin Router > Hand Tools

[@michael4591]

Perfect, if it had a regular headstock

[@MajorDook1]

Disagree. Reverse headstock ftw
