Charvel Identification

[Franx]

Last weekend, it was a bit windy over here (Emma - now I know why storms get female names - they blow !) and I was forced to stay inside. So I hung around and worked on a project, that came to my mind a while ago: www.charvel-jackson.info !
Check it out and feel free to correct/comment/submit whatever has to be corrected/commented/submitted !

And thanx again to Henrik (Jackson1) for using his stuff - permission assumed

Nice work!!!

Well, someone's been busy. Nice job. Keep up the good work.

Nice job! The only issues I see after a quick look-

- on the page with the logos, the '86 - '88 (Model Series) guitar-shaped logo should be the white one with the 6-in-line headstock with "by Jackson/Charvel" underneath:



The logo you have there looks like the USA logo with a 3 + 3 headstock.

- the solid color Model 7 was basswood, and only the trans-finished ones were ash. Same goes for the Legend, which replaced the Model 7.

- the Model 5, 5A, 5FX & 6 seem to be missing.

Looks like you put in a lot of effort, and this should really help people out!

Looks like he split it into bolt-on and neck-thru sections. The Model 5 and 6 are in the last group on the bottom. Just a small thing, these are listed as having the Charvel 2 (toothpaste) logo when they have the Charvel 1 (guitar) logo. Still a great job

Ah, I see. Cool. Should the LS-1 (set neck) go down there?

Excellent effort. I bookmarked it.
I'm picky, but the Model 88 is African Ribbon Mahogany.
Not just any mahogany, it seems. I could supply a pic, but mine has a tone knob added.

Thanx for the comments ! I've corrected, what you brought up;

and of course it's NOT being picky to be accurate (CygX1) !

according the logo (Charvel1) - well observed DG ! I liked the similar headstock-look, that's why I chose this one.

And thanx to Glave for pointing out the logo-mistake (Models 5 - 6); I guess, I was tired, when I did it last night.

Well, 1.15 am - I should get some sleep now.
Good Night

The Desert Crackle 375 Deluxe is a 475 as the 375 didn't have shark fin inlays.

Model 4M wasn't Japan only as far as I know as frequently I see them for sale on Ebay and elsewhere.

I have yet to see any of the other Japanese only guitars EVER ANYWHERE. I wish I did as I like the original Model series Japanese versions with the pickup configs they had.

Great job! I will defiantly bookmark your site.

Great job! I will defiantly bookmark your site.

agreed, nice to see someone take the time to actually make progress on something like this and actually show some info. Excellent!!

We can all work out any bugs together-

[Carless Walker]

Excellent work! I am certain with the wealth of knowledge available here, you will have a veritable lexicon created for the all of the import Charvel fans around!

[guitarforceone]

Very cool!

I believe there was a Charvel CX692 as well that should go in your "CX" section.

Yes ! - that's exactly what I had in mind
