  • Guess I'm back in the family, ehh?

    <font color="white"> Back in 1994, I owned a Chavel 375 Deluxe. At the time, I didn't fully appreciate what I had and it ended up being my 3rd string guitar. A friend of mine wanted a guitar for his kid, so instead of letting him buy the kid some strat-o-knockoff, I offered him my 375 for cheap. I've missed that guitar ever since. Fast forward to today, 12 years later.. In January, I was in my local music store and I saw an interesting guitar. A Charvel that I had some knowledge of. Sure enough, there was my baby all these years later. A little rough around the edges, but still the same wonderful guitar I virtually gave away. She's back home now, where she belongs and where she's going to stay for the rest of my life. I know most of you guys are fans of the older Model series, but the toothpaste logo era is where my happiest guitar memories were born.. Anywho, that's my story.</font>

        Question on the 375... It is a maple/alder/maple sandwich, right? I read that for the 475, and I believe they all used the same woods back then.

          Great story. I just recently got back my 475Deluxe that I sold and after it was gone, I realized what a mistake that was.

          Welcome back to the club.
