H-S-H Charvels

[fett]

What models were there? It's a 33XXXX serial number. I am about to buy one at a pawnshop, but I can't find this one anywhere on the web. It has a notch in the pointy head: gold hardware and it's purple. No pics. If I can snag it for $200, it's mine. [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] HELP!!!

It's a modified guitar.

Re: H-S-H Charvels

I don't know much about the later runs. But there was a I think 626 or something like that, that was a H/S/H. It was a beak headstock Charvel. I have only seen them on the bay so no personal experience with them. I want to say the CH series???

Re: H-S-H Charvels

625 was an acoustic, there wasn't anything electric near that.

The CX391 and CX592 did in fact have a HSH config, but he mentioned a pointy headstock, of which the CX391 and CX592 does not have.

And gold hardware? Purple? Definitely modified. I don't know what model it was, but it's definitely modified.

Re: H-S-H Charvels

I just snagged the guitar for $150. It's all Charvel/Jackson. The neck plate and it has the spacer just says; "Charvel 376497". Jackson Pups and tuners. The Floyd is a Takeuchi (Made in Japan) with the guitar Charvel stamped on it. I have a hunch that this is Japanese Japanese Charvel. The body is stamped CD8-07 NO-8 and the neck has CDS-075 stamped on it. One of these days I'll learn how to do pictures. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Re: H-S-H Charvels

"CDS-075" definitely rings a bell as a japanese market guitar. See if the one on this page looks similar (just a small gif image, unfortunately):

Better pics here. This one has a "CDS" model name, but no neck plate:

Is this the headstock yours has?

Damned if it doesn't look like trans-red over lacewood. [img]/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img] Man, the Japanese get the good stuff, don't they?

Re: H-S-H Charvels

Hmm...the control layout looks suspiciously much like an Ibanez layout, and the trem doesn't seem to match the route. It has the typical Jackson style back route though. [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

It's a stain finish on lacewood.

Give that boy a cigar!!!! That's the model I have. [img]/images/graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] only the body isn't as nice.

Re: H-S-H Charvels

The more I look at the one I have, the more I want to trick it out. It is a really cool set up. With all the stuff I have, I could EMG it. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I hope you guys find one of these. I had to replace the Floyd because one saddle was stripped. Once I got it set up it plays really well. The neck is a classic feel. Narrow at the top and a nice spread down. The fretboard is Ebony. Trust me, if you see one. Buy it!!!!!
