Dude, how come you quit punching yourself in the face?
 
Re: Can anyone ID this Charvel...as what model?

I feel like being helpful for some ****in' reason.
If the ****er is stock, it has two J-200 dual coil bi-level humbucking p-ups and one J-50BC humbucking p-up. (Obviously) a Kahler standard tremolo. 1 vol, 1 tone & jackson active low impedance electronics w/6db boost (@ 650 hz) control knob.

3 2-way mini toggle switches, r.w. board, solid basswood body.

How bout dem apples?

how much did ya pay for it?

there's one in cream color here, advertised as a USA charvel (i'm still laughing at their ignorance) going for $550

Sweet another model 4 owner! I myself have a Floyd + sharkies model. Amazing guitars. Good catch!
 
Re: Can anyone ID this Charvel...as what model?

What are y'all's feelings on these guitars? There's about 5 of them for sale around here (some of them in good shape) for around $150-$200. Would they be worth picking up? I don't know for sure that their model 4's, but they're very similar.
 
Re: Can anyone ID this Charvel...as what model?

how similar?
if you want a beater/experiment axe, go for it. if you want a player, i think most of them live up to that quite well. they're quality guitars from my experience
 
Re: Can anyone ID this Charvel...as what model?

Thanks for your help.
I actually love this thing...the actives scream and its a great player...one of those that just feels right, ya know. I didnt even have to tune it! It came from a pawn shop and I caught them pulling it, they hadnt even dusted it off yet.....129 bucks! Its pretty much perfect shape
 
Re: Can anyone ID this Charvel...as what model?

The pickups are passive, just to clarify. The electronics though are active (the midbooster). And yeah, for stock pickups, they're pretty good.

That's a good price. You need to buy one for me and I'll pay you back. :)
