Charvel Model 7????

[Mark4625]

Hi There
I am new her so pardon my ignorance in the world of Jacksons/Charvels.
I have recently come across a used Charvel guitar that I am interested in but I cant find any details on the web.I think it is a Charvel Model 7.
The guitar is a Telecaster body shape with a maple fretboard and reverse style headstock.
Two single coil pickups.The guitar is a sort of Lake Placid Blue in Fender terms and seems in reasonable condition.
Anyone got any information on these guitars. It is for sale for £219 pounds.
Many Thanks
Mark

Sounds like a 7 for sure. I'm not sure about the currency but 219 pounds is like 300 or so american dollars? Here a nice clean 7 is probably worth that tops. They didn't make many of them. I believe they made some with a hum in the bridge? Or maybe the ones I've seen were modded. Hey, if you get it I'll buy the neck from ya!!! God I love those necks!!!!!!!! maple reverse....

Re: Charvel Model 7????

Is the logo guitar-shaped or is it the "toothpaste" script?

Guitar = Model 7
Toothpaste = Legend

Same guitar, but the Legend had the option of a rosewood board. Just some info. Very cool guitars.

Re: Charvel Model 7????

Thanks for the replies guys.
The logo is "toothpaste" shaped so I guess that makes it a Legend.
I have to say it looks very cool, but I thought myself it was probably near the top of the price range for that type of guitar.
If I get it I would want to make some mods or even transplant the neck myself so the price has got to be good.
I will let you know how I get on.
Great forum by the way!!!!
All The Best
