It's not a model series neckplate unless some of the models didn't say 'ft. worth, TX.
That would mean it would have to be a US made guitar, and i am no expert on those. But, if If my first statement is wrong, my second definitely is.When you take a shower in space, you have to press the water onto your body to clean yourself, and then you gotta vacuum it off. - Ace Frehley

There's a possibility that the body might be a Japanese-market ST, if they made any with a floyd, and maybe they changed the pickguard from the 8-screw to an 11-screw one when they put the humbucker in. Probably a stretch, though. Here's a v-trem Japan-only ST that's on eBay. Looks like a similar battery compartment at least:

Sorry, but I don't understand you. Anybody can write me brightly about situation my guitar, why this is not Charvel?
I talk about previously owner about this guitar and he said me that, the guitar was bought in shoop as oryginal and I and previously owner are hundred percent sure of genuine this guitar. Previously owner is my best friend and he surely don't lie me.
Somebody have any idea?

The guitar has been modified. We are giving you the best answer that we can. If it's a Charvel, it is almost certainly one that was made for the Japanese market, and we are not as familiar with those as we are with the ones that were sold in the U.S. Maybe if you take the neck off there will be some identification or a stamp in the neck pocket with the exact model name or number.

Japanese ST was a Japan only Charvel from roughly 8+ years ago IIRC.
And yes there is no other way to figure this out than to take off the guitars the neck.

the one in the pic is an '83 San Dimas Charvel. According to Tracy's description in the Gallery, the Kahler was added. If you check out the gallery, you'll see Charvel were building a lot of trad-style guitars back then.Hail yesterday
