  • Model 7, NGD

    https://1drv.ms/i/s!Av7Tu9yrli2Hg-hINTPzrZshe_eKjAHi guys!
    I’m a member here since almost 20 years but unfortunately I had to make a new account due to sign in problems…

    Anyways… Today I bought a new guitar. A model 7/Legend Charvel. Have googled the hell out of it but wanted to get some more info. Anything is appreciated. But mainly I’m looking to confirm the year of production. -91 the store said.

    I also wanted to share some pics of it. It is in amazing condition for approx 30 years old. Barely a scratch. Almost all screws seems to never have had a screwdriver in them… Neck pickup says ”jackson”. I suppose it is a J120? Haven’t checked it’s bottom plate yet.


    Serial: 355984

    Cheers /Jonatan

        Probably a J100... I don't see why it wouldn't be?

          Nice guitar. That has always been the one that got away. A local pawn shop had one back in the '90s when I first started playing. Didn't have the money at the time.

            NIce, but that's actually a Legend, not a Model 7. The Model 7 does not have the "toothpaste" style logo.

            This is a Model 7.

              NICE Model 7! Isn't that color called Wine Mist or something similar? I had one the same color except had a Model 2 neck. Sold it to my bass player a few years ago for cheap, since it was far from original.

              I also have a real Model 7: "The Skank". This is one of my main live guitars, mostly used for drop D. Here it is with all the Charvels I own. The green CS "Dweezil" is my main live guitar; a numbered small batch run some of us old time JCF members ordered.

                Very nice score on what looks like a minty Legend. Here's a catalog scan from the 1989 catalog with specs.

                  It's not mine, just a pic I found online. I thought it was some kind of salmon, but I'm remembering now it's Burgundy Mist.

                        Yep. Should’ve had it in the Title aswell. It’s just so ”Model 7” that I’ve heard ppl refered to it as such. Got stuck in the pitfall I guess

                          Thanks for the image. I saw a similar scan that I’ve used in a video that I’m making of the guitar. It sure is mint. Some minor color loss on the neck plate from rubbing against someones belly, that’s it. I’ve taken some close-up photos of the guitar for the video.

                          I like the toothpaste more

                            I made a video with the guitar on YouTube. You’re welcome to ad any info that I forgot to mention.



                            Have been playing this guitar a lot now and I’m really enjoying it. A pretty unique model that brings lot’s of inspiration.

                            cheers!

                              Good tone and very nice playing. Congrats on getting a nice minty Legend!!! By the way the Jackson tuners are proper. The import MIJ Charvels all had Jackson logo'd tuners as they were Charvel by Jackson.
