helping identify my charvel

[toejam]

Please don't tell Chuck that I had forgotten that he is necessary in every music video.

If he finds out, he may roundhouse kick me into the future where I will be transformed into a robot ninja, after which he will travel in time to kick my ass all over again!

And then you'll be transformed back in time into an 8-year-old boy and he'll kick your ass yet again! That's why you'll need the booze...

Cool guitar! Never seen that before. Makes me want to eat reverse oreos!

The guitar in the video has a Fender style jack.

There are a number of Akira Takasaki fans on this forum too.

Japanese people love their metal, and there are a lot of bands here. I think that most Japanese bands don't get international recognition because the vocals are in Japanese.
Loudness "made it" outside of Japan probably because the singer tried to sing in English (EngRish, rather ).

Off the top of my head, I can only remember one other Japanese band that wrote songs with English lyrics. They were called EZO.

I like how you ask for help identifying your axe, then argue with everyone about what they're saying about it ^

I haven't ever seen a finish like that on a Charvel. It's neck through, Jackson JT-6 Trem, bound fretboard, Jackson Active p'ups...appears to
be a Model Series Import from Japan...Model 6 is what I'd say too...

Maybe get some better headstock pics...but that won't matter if you keep shooting down suggestions from people trying to help you.

lessons learned: don't be so sure, there's always more to what you know, and cut some slacks for newbies.

That video is freaking hilarious. I wish I could understand what they were singing.

Wonder no more! Here are the lyrics: http://www.lyricsvip.com/SEIKIMA-II/...NE-Lyrics.html

at least with the band Loudness, there is NO mistake on what BASSES he used...a Friend in the UK bought his old p-p ESP's :
Both are mid 80's 'Masayoshi Yamashita' of 'Loudness' signature models. The black one has all EMGs & is fully active!
