Re: Model 3 or 4?

Todd, the original Model 4 was the 1986 version which had dots and a Kahler trem. In 1987 they switched to the Jackson JT-6 trem and added the sharkfin inlays. This is the Model 4A, but most people refer to it simply as a Model 4. I believe I have seen that some of the brochures actually listed it correctly, and others simply said "Model 4." But the correct term is 4A. I'm just being anal. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] And there was also the 4M...you know that one? A Model 4 with maple board. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Model 3 or 4?

You guys are really pissin me off with all your Fircrackle Charvels! [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I've been playin Charvels since 87, *I* deserve em, not you!!! [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Budman, I'm so jealous of your Model 6, I'll trade my White/Black tiger stripe Model 6 for yours if ya want. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Dana, if you got another Firecrackle axe I might even trade my White '79 Z for it.

Tekky, that Skulls and Fircrackle 3DR is friggin awesome. ( It is a 3DR, right?)

And somewhere BadBrad is out there, enjoying the Firecrackle Model4A he purchased for a song.. one that *I* passed up on cause I was an idiot. [img]images/icons/frown.gif[/img]

Congrats on all the great axes gentlemen. [img]graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

Re: Model 3 or 4?

I know the 4M well.. I "had" one for a little bit. Story is that I bought a 4M from eBay but the pickups and such were garbage. I was going to restore it, but I used the neck and put it on a model 2 and created my own model.. The Model 2M. Right now the 4M is still in pieces, but I'm going to bring it back as a slammin Model 4 with chrome hardware. I actually hadn't heard the term 4A, but I'm sure there's a lot more I hadn't heard. Hey, we're all here to learn...

2L2O - you are correct, it is a 3DR. "Skully" is, from what was established here, a Japanese Custom shop...

2Loud...well, I don't have another Firecrackle, but I'll let you know if I come across another one. Not sure I need another Dean though. I have 9 of em already. [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]

Todd...yeah man, we're all here to learn. Again, I was just being anal about the correct names...or maybe I was showing off a bit. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Sweet!

Any modification plans or are you keeping it pretty much stock??

Re: Model 3 or 4?

Not really sure yet. I'll wait to see what condition she's in and then I'll decide. I'm sure I'll let you know! [img]graemlins/toast.gif[/img]
