        Could it be a USA Fusion? Did they do those with maple boards? That graphic looks like it was cool to bad the former owner had a laps of common sense and stripped it. [img]graemlins/thebirds.gif[/img]

          Looks like the graphic was a slight variation of this one Graphic Example

                Look where the neck pickup was... is that crooked or is it just me? Possibility that it could have at one time been a 1 hum?

                  Thanks for all the replies so far. It definitely came routed from the factory for 2 humbuckers.

                    Why do people do these things? To strip a perfectly good graphic down to the bare unfigured wood is about as dumbass as dumbass can get.

                    And that neck hum route lookes crooked because one end of it is masked by the graphic.

                    Doc - it could be a Dinky - mine's got the ez-access lower horn route like a Fusion, but I think he's talking about the heel area itself on the back of the guitar was scalloped/recessed, not the lower horn.

                      it could be a parts mutt...correct me if i'm wrong but the bridge looks like an ibanez edge...and i agree WHY strip off a graphic like that for the "natural" look....i don't understand some people...

                      my 2 cents

                        Wow...good eye...the trem is an Ibanez Edge, the guy said he lost the original trem. But the body and neck both have the same work order stamp with the same number so they are legit. It's never gonna be more than a parts player now but I'd like to know it's origin anyway.

                            Is that a 'claw' route on the backroute of that tremolo?

                            I saw a Charvel at GC in Chicago, it was magenta, had the toothpaste logo, maple fretboard, with a 1 hum and 1 slanted single p/u config.. They were asking @ 350, but after looking at it, some yahoo routed the trem cavity even more and dropped in an ibanez edge tremolo..
