Anyone know what this is

[Rhmsc8]

Hello,

Found a Charvel Neck-Thru, Candy apple red, Charvel with old bridge (very old) has standard nut with a lock behind it. Serial# is C704816 or C704616.

Any clue on what this is? Made in the USA? Whats a fair price on it? Found it at a local music store contemplating buying it.

Thanks all,
Ronnie

Re: Anyone know what this is

all Charvel neck thrus are madi in Japan.
Does the neck have a binding on it? what's the pick up configuration?

Re: Anyone know what this is

No binding, two humbuckers. 3 knobs (guessing 1 vol 2 tone) Active pickup. As there is a battery in with the wiring. All the electronics look really ancient. 1 toggle (I think 3 way)

Thanks for the help.

Re: Anyone know what this is

It is! Found it on Ebay. Thanks. Anyone know if this guitar is descent or not? Or should I hold out for a model 6. They want 350 for it. Kinda high I think. Rough shape.

Thanks

Go to the Non Jackson/Charvel related section and look for NOTP's thread about posting pics. Congrats! Model 5's are great! Plus $238 with HC is good price!
