Re: new import models

Newer, but not "new". Be careful how you word it, you'll start a rumor stampede. The "Chinese telegraph" on this board is very inventive. Soon, before you know it, the last post would be all about how they're reviving the entire Charvel Model line. (that's just an example people, there are no Charvels being made overseas!)

PS - Johnny and the Mothers are playin' Stompin' At the Savoy in Vermont tonight.

Re: newer import models

Re: newer import models

Someone was asking me about the Model A+, and I wasnt able to find any info on it. he described it as AAAA maple top, Charvel Floyd, ebony board and real Duncan Livewires with with the battery packs and everything...
the Charvel site doesnt have any of these listed. so I could only find similar models on the jacksonstars site, but they were not the same as what he was describing...

See what I mean about the "Chinese telegraph"??

Re: newer import models

yeah, that was pretty funny...
Where did you get all that info, was it from a site, or just personal knowlegdge?

Re: newer import models

I've got the catalog. I'm also working on a database of all J/C Production models from 1986 to present.

Re: newer import models

thats cool.... what catalog were they in? and did they have the option of livewires?

Re: newer import models

Charvel 2002, no mention of Live Wires that I can remember.
