  • Another "what is this?" post

    Hate to be a pest but I don't know what it is. I don't think all those mini toggles factory and of course, neither are the pickups.. unless this is a custom shop?? Help me guys.

    My first thought was that it's a Charvel Model 5 which has been 'modified'. However, I thought the model 5 had a blade switch and a n/r bridge...

      Looks like a modded Model 5. I think it started as either a 5A (1 hum) or 5FX (H-S) because it doesn't have the special 5-way switch that regular 2-hum Model 5s had, plus iirc some the 5As & 5 FXs had the pullup rout behind the bridge. That would mean it was made in '88. Made in Japan.

        Could be a transitional model 5 89-90 because of the up pull route with the older logo.
        The mini toggles are not factory.
        This needs to be in the import section too.
        Really? well screw Mark Twain.
