Thanks for putting up the pic for me
I'll check the neckplate tomorrow cause the guitar's in my bedroom now and if I wake up my gf she'll probably kill me, lol..
The guy I bought it from told me it was made in Japan though, and I think he's right cause the one at the musicshop looking like mine is."This ain't no Arsenio Hall show, destroy something!"

The Journeyman does have the vintage-type trem, but it's only got one humbucker.I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

Originally posted by VitaminGCharvels were initially the hotrodded super strat type dealio, Jacksons were the state-of-the-art neckthru headcutting machine. They rarely cross over into each other's territory
I prefer the classic full size strat Charvels with dots, rather than the dinky Jacksons with sharkies. just how I roll, yo.the guitar players look damaged - they've been outcasts all their lives

you could say the same thing about the Jackson JRS's - they're full size strat bodied bolt-ons, Wilkinson trems, 22 frets, etc.
But neither were available for very long, considering the 25 years both lines have been alive.Hail yesterday

The fake Charvels your probably hearing about are the "Vintage" San Dimas Charvels especaily the Strat headstock models. Those are more likely to be faked and passed off as a real San Dimas charvel as apposed to the Imports. Althogh there is condusion on the imports too. BTW Any older charvel that has the Fort worth texas neck plate is an import.
