    1986/1987 Charvel 1A Maple Real or Fake or Mutt Tell me

    I just got a Charvel 1A SSS Its says 1A 3 on the Pickups It has a Maple Neck but The dots on the 12 Fret are Wide they look like Painted Dots. I was told Charvel dots should be close together. The Logo is in a little Higher and closer to the edge than on my Model 4 the Trem only has a G105 on the Bottom no other Marking . It plays Great has TM on the Logo The Bridge Pickup look like its upside down compared to the other Pickups
    Also From looking around on this WebSite. Since its got a TM Logo on the HeadStock and a TM on The NeckPlate with No Gasket What are the Chances this is a 1986 Model?

    My Model 4 is a 1987 it has a Gasket on the Neck Plate.

                        Looks real to me, but I'm no expert. What's it play like?

                            It plays Great and stays in tune ok as long as you don't touch the Wammy!!! I can trem the Hell out of my model 4 and it stays in tune
                            but on the Model 1A you always have to pull up on the bar then it will go back into Tune .. Maybe someone Change out the Trem with a Cheap One I am not sure. Thats whyt I posted this to get some comments on the Guitar like if anything is not Right on it or if its a whole Fake or Real or what parts are Fake or Real.
