10-04-2026

Charvel has unveiled the Jake E. Lee signature Pro Mod San Dimas Style 1 HSS HT RW guitar. Inspired by his iconic tone with Ozzy Osbourne during the “Bark At The Moon” era, this guitar delivers explosive versatility, vintage attitude, and modern performance at an accessible price. Designed to celebrate the influence of Jake E. Lee while empowering the next generation, it features a powerful HSS configuration with a Seymour Duncan JB bridge and DiMarzio SDS-1 single coils, plus a hardtail bridge for maximum sustain, tuning stability, and expressive, high-impact playing.

The Jake E. Lee Pro-Mod Signature Blue Burst features an alder body, bolt-on quartersawn maple neck and 12″-16″ compound radius rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and white dot inlays.

This much sought-after celebration of Jake‘s famous blue burst model he used in the 1980s is equipped with a versatile Seymour Duncan JB humbucking bridge pickup that can handle a diverse range of tones from sweet and warm to aggressive and distorted. It’s also supercharged with two powerful single-coil DiMarzio SDS-1 pickups in the middle and neck for extra gain with a deeper, darker tone. The pickups are controlled with a five-way blade switch and single volume knob for a variety of tonal possibilities.

Jake E Lee has been delivering hard rock’s most defining performances since the 1980s, From Ratt and Rough Cutt to Ozzy Osbourne, Badlands and now, Red Dragon Cartel. 
 
Key Features: 
  • Alder San Dimas body – The San Dimas® shape is the guitar Jake helped define as a central figure in the Southern California scene, delivering the punchy, balanced tone he’s known for.  
  • Seymour Duncan® JB (bridge) and DiMarzio® SDS-1 middle and neck single coil pickups – From ferocious high-gain attack with the JB bridge humbucker to expressive, melodic playing through the tailor-made SDS-1 single-coils, this pickup configuration covers every corner of Jake’s dynamic playing style.
  • Charvel hardtail bridge – For Jake’s technical demand and vibrato, the hardtail bridge maximizes sustain, resonance and tuning stability.
Blue Burst Finish – Jake’s original Blue Burst Charvel became an icon during his Ozzy Osbourne years, and its return on this signature is a bold, unmistakable nod to the era that defined his legacy.
