Sorry I wasnt clear..in 2005 they offered Jake the same deal as Warren got for his new charvel series.
Now you cant even order a Jake replica with them.

He got one free guitar from ESP when he did the retraced CD. Not that much of an incentive since he would have made money with Charvel.

:oops: sorry, I don't particularly follow stratty guitars :P just trying to aid with the Jake history.

I guess Jake isn't really that keen to get his name in the spotlight?

One of the knocks I always had against Ratt live was how bad the vocals were. Pearcy can't seem to hold a note and sometimes has trouble finding the note in the first place. And that was only compounded by the severely out of tune backup vocals of Crosby (RIP) and Crucier. The live Ratt vids I've seen with Corabi are 100% better vocally. Heck... Corabi would probably kick ass singing the leads.

If you haven't heard "The Scream" check them out. Corabi just rips on it. Another great band that didn't get enough attention.

this model was used on the Retraced record,
but I get the feeling from the interview he did back then,
that it was a guitar he already had acquired on his own.

John Corabi is the current rhythm gutiarist in RATT. He's a very pleasent guy and when I met him we had a real funny chat about Michael Angelo Batio actually :lol: He sang for RATT as well when Pearcy got so drunk he couldn't perform anymore so I give Corabi a big thumbs up.

As much as I like Corabi, and RATT were fantastic, I guess it just didn't seem the same without Crosby. I'd not seem them previously, but when I saw them on videos, he seemed to have an immense presence. So sad how he was so close to recovering and yet let it all go. I could go on about it, but i'd rather not.

Wow, I had no idea Warren was using a BLACK "Frenchie" now!!! The original was always my favorite of his guitars, but this is extra cool!!!
