Model ID help please!

[scotty]

Can I get some help finding out what model and year this guitar would be?
It has:
Charvel guitar logo
Neck-thru
Jackson Floyd
One humbucker.
I would assume being a neck thru it would be worth something, what do you guys think this think?

Thanks in advance

Sounds like a Model 5A from '87 or '88. As far as value, the "bluebook" thread here lists the Model 5 in the $300 - $400 range. Killer guitars, but they just don't pull in the big bucks. Great if you're buying, not so great if you're selling.

The model 5a is a little less common than the 2 hum model 5.I had a model 5a firecrackle and it had black binding just on the neck .It was almost impossible to see the binding because the paint came all the way up the side of the neck to the fretboard.The binding was only visible from the top looking down.The original pickup is a J-95.Great guitars.
