  • Heineken Charvel

    I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of the original "holy grail" Heineken strathead. I remember about a year or so ago when one surfaced on ebay but i thought that was refinished, and i can't find the pics i saved from that auction anyway. thanks scott

      Thanks for the reply. i saw that one, That is not a very good picture or description. i can't even see what type of bridge or how many pickups it has on it. was just wondering what is so different about it now as compared to when it left the factory. if the guy who did the mods only knew.

                    So that's it huh? Even with the mods, it's still a cool piece.

                        i'm sorry but that guitar screams for
                        a maple fretboard.

                          There was a replica floating around that I have pics of with a real prepro maple 21 fret neck and it looked KILLER!!

                          I do believe the original neck for 1001 was maple, anyone know for sure..I do believe it was maple though.

                            Amen on the maple board, that rosewood just doesn't cut it on that guitar.

                            Didn't a JCFr have the line on that guitar and it fell through when the seller got greedy?

                              I have a picture of that replica. Tom T was trying to sell the replica as the real thing last year
