Boxcar, that's not a Model 6. The Model 6 has the guitar logo with three on/off switches. I think that one is a 650 or 650XL or something with the toothpaste logo and five-way switch. Close enough, though. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Re: old left handed charvel mod6

I'm glad you like them. I'm very fond of my collection. I'll be adding a '90 telecaster blonde, '86 SanDimas V and a 2002 SL2H (Errie Dess). Unfortunately, I have a baby on the way and my music room is now the kids room. So some of my collection will be hitting the aution block soon.

As for the SL1, it is a great player. I can do things on that guitar that for some reason I can't on others [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img] The only problem (issue) that I have with the new Jackson necks is that I do a lot of string bends and I have experienced the dreaded E-string falling off the fretboard thing. I try to be more self aware of this and try to condition myself to play differently. When I play out, I use my SL1 and my 86 SD Strat and people in the crowd go crazy over that skulls pattern. When they find out it was hand drawn, I get even bigger WOWS [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] As for price, I paid around $1500.

The guitar in the pic I think is a 475 deluxe with active electronics. Plus its a bolt-on.

Re: old left handed charvel mod6

Joe - how is Exit? Do you go there alot? I always drive by there on my way home from the shops on North Ave. and always want to check it out, but never do. Is it easy to pick up the Home Depot Hookers after you crawl outta there at 4AM?

Re: old left handed charvel mod6

that is indeed NO 650, it is a 475 of some sort, but I guess there are 650 XL in lefties as well. I never heared of a lefthanded model 6....

Re: old left handed charvel mod6

L-- Yep, I hang out at EXIT a lot. I started going to the original one on Wells in the early 80's. It's a strange crowd, always been. The downstairs has the greatest 70s/80s punk jukebox. Upstairs is a dark/gothic dance scene. I usually hang at NEO on Thursdays for their "Planet Earth" but everynow-and-then, the Thursday night bondage-a-go-go at EXIT is awsome. A lot of hot wax and loud thumping music (ie NIN,RZombie,Ministry). Saturday nights are good--5am call! Usually I go there on Saturday nights after my wife get's home. The place gets hopping around 1am. Let me know if you'd like to met up there one of these nights. I'm always ready to do some drinking and a little moshpitting [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Re: old left handed charvel mod6

hey, I'll let you know, but it'll probably be a while befoe I make it down there. I think the Monday night Punk Rock DJ looks more my speed...not to mention $2 Guiness....brilliant!

Re: old left handed charvel mod6

Not alot of people there on Monday, maybe around 15. You end up saying 'I remember that one' after every song. I almost died when they played a 30 minute salute to Anti-nowhere league. Still even with a low turnout, it's not bad. BTW, my band plays out in the south sub's--check out our web for upcoming dates
