  • Any info about a very nice cherry sunburst MIJ ...?

    So - I got a very nice MIJ off ebay 4-5 yrs ago ---
    1st thing that surprised me - the neck is Really Slender ---
    narrowing down to the nut like a Jazz Bass --
    and very flat/shallow ----much too small for me --

    it has the HSS - but the H is just 2 S's next to each other --
    5 way switch, and a mini-toggle, to add the extra Single into any combo ---
    pretty cool...........
    I have never seen a head, or roller nut like this, the roller is 2 piece -
    1 for the bottom 3 strings, 1 for the top 3 ....
    the screw in the middle might be for height adjustment??

    it has a Gotoh blade whammy, with the 5 springs behind -

    The body is maybe oak?? it's kinda heavy - like the early 70's strats .....
    the tuners are fake Klusons ....

    OK- thanks for any input or ideas,
    Craig in Seattle

      this is it on steroids
      I know the old saying that the value of an opinion is generally inversely proportional to the strength with which it is held.

        Well --
        #1 - I'll be darned --
        #2 - Excellent - thanks for the Heads Up - (pun slightly intended)

        thanks for pointing me to the http://audiozone site --
        I did not know someone had scanned an amazing amount
        of catalogs -----now I can look for the other 3-4 I used to have ----
        and John.w. -- I had a white one with that headstock in your pix,
        2 Hs under white plastic covers --

        My quest -- I bought a few off ebay a few years ago - assuming ---
        that every Charvel would have something close to the EVH wider neck - with the rolled edges, which I happen to REally LIke ---
        found out that's not the case --
        Can Anyone point me to the certain Models that
        Have the slightly larger neck ---- and rolled edges ---??
        and medium jumbo frets ---

        I'm not a fan of the hocky stick heads -- reg or reverse --
        prefer strat style ----

        Thanks again -- C
