    Right in the title:




    Charvel Jackson H-S-S Style Neck & Body Binding Schaller Floyd Rose Guitar


    That, my friend, is very misleading. The above could easily be read as Charvel Jackson / HSS Style / w/ neck & body binding / w/ Schaller Floyd Rose / guitar.

    Plus the headstock says Charvel. Your description is still unclear / confusing.

    In reality this is a mutt with unknown body. Granted, you probably don't want to state THAT but the way you have your auction worded is exactly why we have the Efraid forum. Sorry if you think this is not the case. I'm sure you are not trying to scam anyone, but the way you got this ad worded is pretty "weaselly". Still.

    Plus, zero bids.

          I disagree that anything is misleading, but I changed the description to avoid any misunderstanding.

            Old Can with new worms

            Hate to bring up an old post and not trying to stir up any worms but i must and this is why
            That was my guitar in the mid 90's and this is how it became a mutt.
            When i bought this at Sam Ash in Cherry Hill NJ it was a Purple Burst Exotic 475
            I sold it to a friend who decided he wanted a middle humbucker like Vivian Campbles Nightswans so he had someone route the middle single coil
            but he fucked up....Freehand is a bad way to use a router on a Guitar......After some time he was hurting for cash so i bought it back (very reduced price)
            After i had it again i filled that route with Bondo and painted it White and put car part stickers all over it like a race car
            but it never sounded as good as before the butcher job and i hated it. Around that time i had an Unknown make that had a green Birdseye body
            and a 1/4 sawn maple neck with an Ebony board But it had warped.....My solution?.....A 475 with a green birdseye top or what you see above
            This was not done to make it anything other then a functioning non butt ugly guitar.....I sold it to some shop in Washington Twp (as well as a flip flop Kramer Pacer)
            because i needed cash to help pay for my move to Florida (yes they were told the body was not original)
            Again i have no clue who made that Guitar as there were no markings on it (neck was striped of its finish)
            And it was not a bound body....It was the natural top with no stain...Every part on it came from that 475 except the Bridge humbucker
            which was an early Duncan JB with braided leads.......I have pictures of both guitars as well as the original body with both paint jobs......
            I would gladly post them if someone can tell me how

              upload the images to PHOTOBUCKET then come and past the " IMG" link in the body of the message field.

                  What a great idea...Now i have 2 Photobuckets as i cant remember my password for the 1st one
                  Anyhow...1st pic is the original Purple Burst 2nd pic is after bondo and paint. 3rd is of the original Green Birdseye guitar....Which if anyone knows who has it and wants to sell it let me know,,,,Oh and if you look at his pic and the one after i painted it white you will see the binding missing from the end of the finger board

                    I posted the pics but i guess being a newbie (have another account but guess what) they have to wait for a mod to approve!

                                i know.. i remember reading that you needed money for a move.. still doesnt change the fact that i dont sell, even if i need money. ill find another way. + i mod all my guitars with the exception of 1.. a squire stagemaster deluxe in mint condition FTW..plays and feels like a 1500 dollar guitar.. fretwork better than my prized dinky. this one will be kept as stock as possible . ill loose money if i sell because of mods, which is why i don't sell.
