Jackson Custom Shop Steve Vai 'Crossroads' Replica Guitar On eBay!

If, like me, your first visual introduction to Steve Vai's stage-craft was his role in the movie Crossroads from way back in 1986, then this guitar will probably bring back fond memories.  (eBay Item#: 290399667260)

A replica of the axe that Vai shredded, teased and strangled in the movie in a 'guitar duel' with the hapless Ralph Macchio, this Jackson is apparently a one-off made in their US custom shop.

According to the seller, this guitar features an oil-finished early-80s style Charvel neck (read: wide and flat but not too skinny at the back) with a compound radius fingerboard with rolled edges, ash body, Seymour Duncan JB and '59 humbuckers and a Floyd Rose trem.  All topped off with a stunning Candy Apple Sparkle finish. 

Is it time to air out those leather pants or what!

Now I've sworn off Floyd Rose-equipped guitars for the last 15 years but this Jackson has piqued my interest in a locking-bridge axe again.  Well, maybe this or a Tyler Ultimate Weapon.
