BLUE RAVEN

Having asked Raven Neale to paint a custom Donnie Hunt style guitar for me (see Red Raven) I almost immediately decided I wanted a second, but this time closer to the original spec of the Ibanez JS3. I acquired an Ibanez JS1000 which is very similar, and shipped it over to Melbourne for Raven to paint. This time I asked him to produce an original design with certain motifs that Donnie Hunt used in the models I liked the best, particularly the big white eyes, and we ended up with this awesome replica which is as close to a Donnie as any you’ll find.

I upgraded the tremolo and some other hardware for this model and I applied the clear coat varnish myself.
