Help identifying a Charvel-

[Bluecast]

Hello everyone,

I stopped by a small guitar store today and noticed that they were selling a Charvel guitar. The guy there said that it's about 20+ years old. The shop is selling it for 200$ (the instrument has many dings and scratches all over the body). Sadly, we weren't able to identify which Charvel model it is. Here is all the information I was able to gather :

- Maple bolt-on neck
- Maple fretboard
- Dot inlays
- Charvel Logo on Headstock
- One Jackson Humbucker
- One volume knob
- Non-floating trem, cannot pull-up on the whammy bar.
- Serial number on neck plate : 251426
- I do believe that it's a Japanese import

I don't know too much about Charvel guitars, but it does seem to resemble a Model 1. I hope this is enough information.

Thanks!

Sounds like a 1986 Model 1

[VitaminG]

nope. All Model 1s came with a maple fretboard

Model 1 - Maple board, 1 hum
Model 1A - Maple board, 3 single coils, pickguard
Model 1C - Maple board, HSS, no pickguard

Cool. Thanks for the feedback guys.
It's definitely a standard Model 1.
