Charvel model 1/2 pickup

[meshuggah]

Hi, I have a red Charvel model 1 or 2 (not sure), that needs the pickup replaced. I understand it's a J90C that i need. Does anyone know if these can still be bought somewhere? Thanks for the help!

They stopped making them years ago, but used ones can be found on eBay or occasionally in the classifieds here.

Only the last one is a j90c. The other 2 are those cvr jackson pickups out of a j series Jackson.

Great, thank for your help guys! I know now it's a Model 2! and there's a pickup for sale on Ebay (though $100 is a bit much...)!
Have any of you any idea on the value of this guitar (red model 2)?
Coincidentally I just bought a new Charvel just now, a beautiful red '94 Surfcaster with trem and jackson humbucker (unique setup), anxiously waiting for shipment from the US...

I may have one of those pickups at home, I'll have to check as I'm out of town right now. I won't be using it because I don't really like Jackson pickups and my Model series Charvel has been converted to a Duncan. The one I have was either painted purple by the previous owner or maybe just the pickup ring was painted, can't remember as I have not looked at it since removing it and storing it in a plastic bag.

great, let me know if you still have it...

Looked at it today. The pickup is black and in nice shape, just the pickup ring was painted purple. It has about 5" of wire left, has the Jackson logo on the front, and marked LP-HN with 10.8 under it. Not sure what pickup it is exactly. Oh, and this is not a covered pickup, its open. Let me know if thats what you're looking for. It came out of my 1hum model series Charvel.
