  • Green Bullseye

    I have been wondering what to do with this one for a while...

    I would love to remove the Kahler and patch the finish...

    also remove that switch.. It was a H/s/s no idea what the swithing was

    any thoughts?

    Maybe a Strat scratchplate or (if you really want to remove the Kahler) total refinish.....

    Rare is not the same as valuable
    Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

        Kev,

        With the factory finish still looking that nice I would leave it. To remove the kahler fill in the route is one thing, but I think it would be very difficult to match those colors now.

        I would just change out the pickup so that they all match and that would be about it.

          Tslk to Bloodspatter. He is pretty good with restoring stuff like this (although he is usually putting the kalher BACK for some odd reason [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

              Thanks

              I talked with Chuck today and he has a buddy that helped him with the VHII. I may look into this or just go Creme pips and rings and a gold Kahler

                          Shoot it and put it out of its misery.
                          Sorry but that scheme is hideous.

                              Is that a heavily modded pre-pro Charvie? I would make it a 1 bridge hum, 1 neck single, 3 way switch, 1 knob more even with the middle screw of the hum (like most 1 hum Charvies). Go with a non recessed chrome Floyd, either candy or solid color paint.
