Charvel Primer Scream?

BloodRose

Professional Scapegoat
Anyone remember those? Anyone have one? This was one (number 7) of the special Pro Mod runs Charvel did. When this model first came out, I didn't care for it much. Wasn't (and still not 100%) crazy about the color and the fact the trem was flush. However, since I've pretty much become a complete Charvel devotee, (and found one really cheap) I like it. Still not my favorite color wise, and I prefer top mount floyds, (flush is NOT a deal breaker tho)but I like it, especially cuz of the yellow inlays and MOSTLY due to the single single coil in the neck.
I wanted to ask if anyone has one, if so, how do you like it? Since it is made in Japan, I'm sure it's well made, but I have a couple of questions. First, almost everywhere I read, I get a different answer on what model the single coil in the neck is. Accurate info is kinda scarce since they are no longer avail. Second, what is the finish like? I assumed when they came out that they were just painted kind of a gray color to look like primer. However, one review I found online by and overseas mag back in the day, says that it it just finished with a paint primer, so you can actually finish it however you want. ?? I find that kind of odd, as this would obviously affect the headstock logo and such. But since I KNOW that EVERYTHING I read online is definately fact, (LOL, I kid) I just wanted to toss this out there.

I think one would look VERY cool with yellow pickups and knob to bring out the inlays.. thoughts?

Any input would be groovy.. thanks
