  • Charvel Bass - please help me identify it.

    I bought a bass off ebay for a friend of mine. It is a Charvel with the guitar logo. It's black, bolt on, pointy head, single P pickup, p-bass shape, really heavy duty bridge on it, not one of those cheapo ones. The bridge and pickup both say Jackson on them.

    Anyone have a clue?

      <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Sorry I failed to mention that. Yes it is maple on maple. What do you think is a good price for one of these?

      It's in excellent condition, and I was surprised at the quality of it. The hardware is nice and solid, as is the rest of it.

      I paid $155

        <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That's too funny. I just bought one off shopgoodwill.com and wanted to find out what charvel animal it was. Mine has the dual single coils. I didn't think the body went with the pointy eighties headstock though. I have seen an '82 with the fender headstock that had an identical body and pickup/bridge configuration. The neck is slightly off so maybe someone added a later neck? Not sure but it sounds great! I wouldn't change out the pickups. It sounds better thank my p/j fender!

        Hey it was only $78 which included shipping. check it out - they often have great instruments for a low price.

        Shop Goodwill
        or another good site is
