  • She has arrived! Model 4 firecrackle


    I found this one on Denver CraigsList for $300. Needs a trem cover plate and 1 string lock insert for E string. No dings, dents or damage....the Charvel Gods blessed me on this one.

    I always wanted one of these when I was younger, it looks cooler now than i remember it to look:think:

    Also I would like to get a black pickup bezel so if anyone has the parts I need PM me please.

    Magnificent guitars, enjoy it and congrats on the score!

      Nice graphic! Looks like an OFR saddle is a direct fit...

        Dave makes replacement pickup rings that will fit your Charvel. They are built better than the originals too.

              I see no Floyd parts on that trem at all. The saddle is a JT-6 part. It is just missing the string lock as he stated. Oh and NICE find man!
              I live on the edge of danger facing life and death every single day.....then I leave her at home and go disarm bombs.

                I just bought a blue metallic 86 Model 4 with Kahler for $320. She's clean, just a few chips here and there.

                    Sweet find!
                    Congrats.
                    Models
                    The prudes may snub them, but I don't care.
                    I dont need furniture.
                    If its tough, shreds, and screams, Its all good.
                    If it gets jacked, I'll get another one.
                    And rock that sucker.

                      I want that.

                      I'm jealous.

                      You suck.



                      Seriously, that is one of those finishes I wanted so bad back when they were new. Unfortunately, mowing lawns did not pay that well. :dunno:

                      Congrats!

                        It for sure should be named hot lava instead of firecrackle. You guys have created a monster! I'm looking every day for model series guitars. My wife walks down stairs and said, I wish you looked at me the way you look at her. I said you talking about the neighbor? She said no the guitars....but its nice to know about the neighbor!

                              Agree totally. Great find for sure but crackle doesn't do anything for me. I will post some pics of my blue metallic 86 Model 4 when I get it!
