Charvel Spectrum bridge spec?

[Deadbeat Son]

I have a Charvel Spectrum. The bridge is a Schaller branded German-made Floyd. Is this the stock bridge? I would have expected to see a Jackson logo and not a Schaller logo on it.

Thanks!

My Spectrum has the original trem which says "Jackson" on the bass side and "Made In Germany by Schaller" by the trem arm = JT-590. IIRC the Japan market Charvels came with Schaller branded floyds, but I think they were a different animal from the 590.

I have seen Spectrums with "Jackson" logod floyds as well as "Schaller" logod floyds. I have seen both. but I dont know which was original if any or both. mine had a JT6 when I got it, it also had a fucked up peavey style lock nut. weirdest damn combination ever seen. I swapped out the JT6 for an OFR and swapped out the nut for a real Floyd Nut.

As far as i know, spectrums had JT-590's (Schaller floyd), model 8M's (earlier version of the spectrum) had JT-6's, could be some overlap

I also wouldnt be surprised if the JT-590 was labelled either "jackson", "charvel" or "schaller"

Thanks for the info all. I'll try to get a photo up tomorrow. It definitely looks stock, as far as fit and finish is concerned. I was just a bit surprised by the Schaller branding.

I have a Schaller branded JT-590 on my 550XL. If you think about it, Jackson probably started ordering JT-590's before they started branding them. Or, maybe they ran out of branded bridges and just used Schaller's to keep guitars from sitting there waiting to be shipped out.

Mine says Jackson.

The one I had said Schaller.
