Re: Charvel Model 4?

hooray!!

its actually alot creamier than it looks but when take a photo the metallic bits in the paint (it was originally metallic white before it faded i think)make it brighter than it is also there looks like there's rust on the trem but there actually isn't - its a brass trem and it shows on the edges of bits where its old - i'll try post u some better photos of it now its in my hands

Well done mate, i was going to get one but in black, they play really well and don't sound too bad either. Nice score [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Re: Charvel Model 4?

I thought the middle pot was tone, not mid boost? Am I wrong?

Re: Charvel Model 4?

you got a good guitar there, once you have a luthier deal with your pots. they just need a good cleaning.

Re: Charvel Model 4?

My middle pot is the tone and my third knob is the mid-boost,but there are occasions where for some odd reason they are switched.

Re: Charvel Model 4?

Re: Charvel Model 4?

When I got my Model 6, it was wired as such: Tone (closest to the pickup), volume, and mid-boost. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] The previous owner had probably rewired it a few times. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

From neck to butt, my pots are vol-tone-mid boost

Re: Charvel Model 4?

I hate my Charvel Model 4. It's made it impossible to find another guitar at a reasonable price that can stand up to it! I also have a 375, but the Model 4 just bloodies it. It stays in tune better, and it's just a tonal wrecking ball (the 375's neck plays like butter, though).

Mine's a little different because I took out the mid-boost circuitry and put in a Duncan Distortion humbucker.

How are you liking yours so far?

<font color="aqua">Actually the batteries last a very long time with those preamps, are you removing the guitar cord from the output after you are done playing? </font>

Also, make sure you have the correct output jack in there and that it is wire correctly so that it isn't 'always on'.

Re: Charvel Model 4?

i'm assuming the wiring hasn't been tinkered with since it was made how would i know if it was always on?
