funny old pic of me and my Charvel

[Wild Wally]

Hi all,

Thought I'd introduce myself with an awesomely bad pic of me around 1987 with my trusty old Charvel, which I still own! (I still have one of the four Marshall cabs, but the spandex and hair are long gone). The Charvel was bought new from Guitar Center in Chicago around late 1984 or early 85, and came with a factory installed gold Floyd Rose. The only mods were I added a Seymour Duncan Distortion in the bridge and a Pearly Gates in the neck, but I still have the original Jackson pickups.

I'll post some better new pics of the guitar soon.

That's a sweet Charvel. Congrats on holding on to it for all this time.

I have a pix of me playing my 86 Jackson back in 87 ish that I havent posted yet, probably cause my hair is large (hair spray and look like a chick) and wearing a hot pink wife beater shirt,just like your black one.But thats what was in then, I was stylin as well.
