Hello Kitte! ( )

That most certainly is a Charvel 475. Real MOP, Schaller trem. Excellent axes - My first Charvel was a Forest Green 475. Made in Japan 1989 - 1991.
(375s had dot inlays and no binding)

thanks! i do like the guitar. but it seems like the neckbolts are to tight, two "cracks" in the laquer on each side, 3 cm down the horns... And the pickups are ok, no more

Those are pretty common in bolt on guitars. They're probably just as you describe them - cracks on the lacquer. You can always make sure by taking a look at the neck pocket.

Welcome to the forum. Make sure to read the rules and avoid typos at all costs!

That is a very nice maple veneer. It looks like electric bolts cracking. Very cool.

Welcome!

The paint used on C/J is not lacquer its polyurethane.and most cracks in the finish are just stress cracks that appear over time from the paint expanding and contracting due to change of seasons its no big deal.

For my part the use of the word "lacquer" was just bad English derived from my native tongue. I'm curious to know what the correct term would be. Clearcoat?
