Members DARKMETL/ Posted August 9, 2009 Members Share Posted August 9, 2009 Ah, another Model 88 man. Here's mine: Love the wood they used on these. Mine was a serious road warrior before I got it - the filled in black spot on the upper bout was a chip caused by a bullet! (The chainsaw case has the matching bullet hole) Cool! You don't see many of these. Mine is #300 of 1000. What is yours? I love the finish color on these. I got it in a trade for a crappy Peavey 4x12 cab.

Members metalheadUK Posted September 9, 2009 Members Share Posted September 9, 2009 I like that. Is that a custom made pickguard or did it come on the guitar originally? No. it is a custom guard. I originally got the model 5 as a shell, and I was going through my single bucker phase at the time, and I didn't want the other pickup. I gigged it for ages like this..I might be able to find a pic,but eventuaslly stuck the guard on. I like it, it makes it MY model 5, and I think it's now got a bit of a Squier 51 vibe going on! heres an old pic from it's gigging days: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sylvesterlowery Posted September 9, 2009 Members Share Posted September 9, 2009 Man this thread is giving me gas! One of my all time favorite guitars ever is the black Charvel Model 1 with a maple fretboard. Just a simple, beautiful guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members metalheadUK Posted September 9, 2009 Members Share Posted September 9, 2009 i LOVE this guitar. So does he!

Members FireLt Posted September 10, 2009 Members Share Posted September 10, 2009 The model 6 is my #1. Yes that is a first generation Trembucker. In the neck is a '59 Fender single coil. I plan on being cremated with this guitar. HAHA. I'm not sure the model number of the other. I honestly found it on my front porch a few months back. No one I know will admit to giving it to me. I think it was the best man from my wedding but he denies it. I wish I still had my crackle tone Charvel I sold about six years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sylvesterlowery Posted September 10, 2009 Members Share Posted September 10, 2009 ^^that white Charvel is a 375 Deluxe. Great guitars, I had one in pearl blue with a rosewood fretboard.

Members aliensporebomb Posted September 10, 2009 Members Share Posted September 10, 2009 My old 1989 Model 4: I replaced the stock electronics with EMG S / S / 81 + Fat Boost I replaced the lousy pot metal Jackson bridge with an OFR. Before that it had a wonderful neck but lousy reliability culminating with the bridge pickup shorting out onstage during a gig. AWFUL. After it was my #1 for over ten years. It started having problems again and I traded it on a Jackson Soloist in 1998 and that one gets a lot of play time: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
