Thats not a Model 6 for sure... I'm no expert but to me it looks like a Model 3.

Re: charvel on ebay, what is it? have pics

The bid is at $230. What is a model 3 worth in that condition?

Does anyone have an idea of what year it may be?

It is a 475. Nice guitars, probably mid 90's. Probably worth $275 to $350 depending on how bad you want it.

I have played charvel guitars before but never this model. Does anyone know how it would play compared to a 1994 jackson dinky hx? This is my main and only guitar.

Well even though I have no idea if the guitar plays good I bought it anyways. So if anyone has any questions about a charvel like this I'll have late next week. So feel free to ask.

Re: charvel on ebay, what is it? have pics

well I finally got the guitar. I have no idea weather it is a '90 or '91. How do you tell?

Re: charvel on ebay, what is it? have pics

It is a 475, and it's actually a 1989. How can you tell? Well, in 1989 they were still using the "large" pickup bezel for the humbucker. You'll notice the bezel/ring is slightly larger than a standard sized one. By 1990 this was eliminated. The 475 ceased production in late 1992 when the "second wave" of the much inferior Jackson Professional line replaced it.

Now that you mention the bezel around the bridge pickup I noticed that is bigger then normal. So it's an '89 model 475.

what do you guys think about these guitars? I've been playing it for about 2 weeks now and I love it.

Of the bolt on imports it's perhaps the finest. You cannot improve on that design, it's perfected in the 475.
