Re: A Repair Shop Sparked a Revolution: The Charvel/Jackson Story
interesting take on the early years. I however know a lot of the peeps and know about all of the Jackson/Charvel downfall. this is like rose colored glasses look at the company.
So many details left out. I seriously hope some employee writes a book about their time and the REAL story.
It would be more like the book "the dirt" than that article lol.

I honestly believe.
The best guitar Luthiers spent a lot of time as Guitar Techs. I don't mean someone touring.
Being a Tech for a substantial amount of time can give you knowledge that no school can. If you want to, you can learn all the things that make guitars great, and all the things that make them not so great.
I would take a guitar made by someone with Tech knowledge over school knowledge every single day of the week.
