Thanks man! More replies please!

pickup

I have one of these was the duncan a factory issue or user replacement. Its wierd mine had a duncan full shread but you could see the holes from the jc90 pickup trim ring if you remove the duncan. I now wonder if maybe the holes were pre drilled off the assembly line for the jc90s and maybe the duncan was added after. Until now I just figured previous owner added the duncan. any help.

the duncan was added latter.

Nice guitar.
Great condition and cool looking crackle!
I love my predators... just great players!

Am I wrong or is the predator essentially the 90s model 3DR?

yup pretty much the same guitar. A couple of minor changes.
Playa. What is that white strat? Looks just like mine but with a rosewood finger board.

yes, with lots of improvements. The necks between mine were different too. you're going from non recessed with a pull up route and crappy JT6 to recessed schaller and that single coil in the 3dr sucks compared to the blade in the predator.

[Rich#6]

I will say that the 3DR has the prefect neck profit while the predator is a little too thin at the nut.

[Tekky]

The Dinky body style was a bit more refined in the Predator version.

Nice. I have the same amp.

Did that Charvel come with a warning label? "Warning use of this guitar may make you forget about the two Fenders in the corner"

[fusionhh]
