  • Pawnshop score

    Hey all,

    Just got back into Charvel/ Jackson guitars after many years of other interests. Walked into a pawnshop today and found these two hanging amidst a buch of cheap Ibanez's, Epiphones, and Squires.



















    The Rhoads is U00299.

    You guys think this Charvel is legit?

    How much did you end up paying for them?

      The Charvel was priced at $1000. The Rhoads was marked at $800.

      I paid $1400 for both.

        The Charvel looks legit.The belly cut on the back is right the electronics cavity is right,pickup routes are right,tuners are right, the bridge hum may have been changed.Maybe a refin tho'.Come on tell us what you paid!!!!

                  Is it just me or can you see a wash out signature on the front of the guitar near the bridge?

                      Check-out that CHARVEL SERIAL#! If it isn't 'conterfeit', it's a Treasure-found.

                      ED ROMAN had a blurb about fakes.
                      S.# indicates 1984 SAN DIMAS? There's an 88 sticker on the back?

                      And no BAD chips off the pointy tips, another plus.
