"new"jackson no cg case

Recommended Posts

Here is the "new" jackson no cg 47mm case- Some info on reshapes has been posted before but for some reason I think this case is not coming up on modders radars: it is a really nice shape with plenty of meat around lug area (better stock shape than silix 6154)

Currently there are no casebacks (aftermarket) available but shape of stock one is very nice- this has been posted about before by southy

Here are two versions of reshape- one is a milder reshape with solder fill to eliminate the pronounced dip in case around crown, the other is more aggressive. The more aggressive one takes the case down on both sides to remove the dip. I don't have an older DSN no cg cast to compare to but certainly from images the jackson is on a par- see what you guys think! It would be interesting to see if anyone has done a vintage build with this case set yet. BTW the stock sterile display caseback is actually quite nice also. Reshaped cases are in progress and have not been polished: this matt finish is better to view shapes also.

First is line-up with mild reshape LHS, stock unmodded centre, and aggressive reshaped one RHS
