Show your Jackson/ Charvel guitars

[Aceman]

And Ms. Jackson for those low down moments. A lot of people love this bass. Pawnshop prize. Plays amazing.

i used to have an almost identical guitar, know what year?

1986' Model 2 modified.

I don't have any Jacksons/Charvel's but my dream one would be a custom shop Robbin Crosby Big Red King V/Double Rhoads. I'd be happy though with a red King V with 22 frets and a Floyd Rose. A 22 fret Floyd Rose RR would be pretty rad as well. The new Pro Series RR in snow white or black is the only offering they have right now that interests me. For Charvel I'd like either a DeMartini Blood and Skull or Crossed Swords.

Older US made SoCal, sporting SSL2s neck and mid and SSL5 in the bridge - making it the only one in this thread without a humbucker!

Not helping my GAS at all. I still have a PATB-2b homeless on my parts shelf. I must need a Charvel for it...

Mine originally had the Kahler Spyder trem and was Profesionally dowelled for OFR with an OFR nut decades before i got it.
Ive had mine since late 90's got it from the old Daddys Junkie Music in the NE from Hersch.
No pics just took a chance and called Hersch got the description.
Basswood body like Vai's Green Meanie. There is something very special about the top end sound very detailed, focused & full thick sounding.
Indian rosewood slab.
I put an all steel Schaller Tremiester w/ big brass block and a late 90's EMG-81 that sound very different than Chinese made EMG's as the older EMG's had an op amp thats no longer available.
Ive never had trouble with this guitar its very forgiving plays / looks / sounds great.
Something very special about the early Japan Charvels.

mine came with the stock jackson pup but i drilled the extra holes for the controls. mine was a mid90s emg. i still have a white mid 90s 81. didnt know they changed the op amp. it was a kick ass guitar for sure

I do not know of any EMGs being made in China, apart from the actual knockoffs. Have they really moved some of their production there?

Must've missed a beat then... I mean,.. I am aware that everybody and their mother has their product made in China, but for some reason I always thought that EMG's only production plant is in Santa Rosa. Perhaps based on the fact that each one I had only said Made in USA and nothing else. Times are a-changing then, I guess...

 

[jeremy]

thats a great blue color jolly!

wonder if someone wants my old dirty white emg81 then
