Evo's rock. It complete woke up my 5150 unlike the damn JB that came in my SL-1.

Evo bridge with a Super D neck? The Super D will need to be a lot lower in the neck than normal, since it's hotter than the Evo. Personally, I'd reverse them.

More details.
I took the neck off. No markings at all. When I took the Floyd off I noticed that it originally had a different trem on it. There are 2 doweled holes where the original trem posts were. They are pretty close together measuring 2-1/4 on center. The new trem posts are the direct body mount with the screwdriver slot heads. I don't believe that this is even a Charvel body. The pickups in it are a Dimarzio DP159 in the bridge (Evolution) which is a black back pickup and the neck is a Dimarzio brass back but with no part # on it. I measured the impedance and it is surely a DP100 Super Distortion. The pots are Dimarzio also.

1986 Model Series bolt-necks had Kahler fulcrum trems with that 2-1/4" spacing. Those woodscrew Floyd pivots were prevalent back then too.

86 mod 1(vintage trem) and 2(fulcrum trem)like this body did not have a recessed trem cover plate.86 and 87 JT-6 mod 2s had the recessed plate.I have an early 87 mod 2 body with the small two point spacing.
The neck looks ESPish to me.Having the truss adj at the heel and the volute on the back.Just a thought.
Chandler is a good guess as well,they made some great stuff.

So the body is probably a Charvel Model 2 which is where the neck plate came from.

I am sure it is an 86 model 2 also by the longer comfort bevel. Take off the control cover and post a pic, then we will know for sure
