  • New guitars for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My camera is on the fritz so don't bust stones.

    Just scored today!!

    1995 Charvel San Dimas IV Reissue, Koa, fully figured and birdseyed neck, Gold hardware, OFR, twin Dimarzio's (if I recall there is a Super 3 in the bridge and I think an Evolution in the neck), original case, in mint condition. Holy crap does this guitar play, look and sound great. It was formerly owned my Moshwitz, Pencilsketch and Sambencuda and I owned it around a year ago too. Sambencuda put the gold OFR on it and also installed a set of custom Budman gold pickup rings.

    mid 80's Charvel Model 1A in red with a black pickguard, rosewood neck, black hardware, plays and looks great.

    BELIEVE IT OR NOT!! I got my old Charvel 7-up green strat back. Its a 275DLX in 7-up Green with a single EMG85 running 18v. Upgraded Floyd, Hipshot Tremsetter and the previous owner installed a KILLER Charvel maple/maple pointy replacement neck with jumbo frets. This guitar has had many owners from all over the USA. This is the 3rd time I have gotten it back. It plays even better than when it left the last time. I actually had a tear in my eye when I first saw it coming up the walkway today.

                Its a beauty. I restrung her tonight and after only 10 minutes she stays in tune perfecty. I am bringing her to the gig tomorrow night to compete with Sambencuda's arsenal of high end Jacksons. He is using his Stiletto and I am using my Vetta.

                  That San Dimas is awesome. I just couldn't get past the headstock. The Original gold Schaller was pitted pretty bad. Adding the OFR made sense. The neck profile is great. The birdseye is killer too. Maybe that headstock wasn't so bad after all. That thing played great.

                  BTW, the rings I put on weren't budman rings.






                  Glad you got her back John. [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img] Now Keep it!! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

                        Popular is not the same as good
                        Rare is not the same as valuable
                        Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

                          i have tha same model. It plays and sounds off the hook. I really enjoy it. I dont play it much but when I pull it out I ask myself " why dont I play this more?"

                            Congrats John.

                            So does anyone want to start a pool on when these hit the classifieds?
                            I want REAL change. I want dead bodies littering the capitol.
