            Yes, different sounding from the normal Charvel factory pups, but I quite like this guitar, keep picking it up when I go to play and I do have one or two guitars( make that 36 )

              Yeah, but which one? There are three.

              I just picked up the original / first one on ebay, but haven't figured out which guitar to try it in yet.



              Nice guitar, color is odd. What color would you call that?

                The pic's aren't that good, sort of a dark blue metalic color.

                  Just stripped this guitar out today for a test. Removed neck and bridge pickup and the 3 way switch. I then fitted a new volume pot and then fitted a Dimarzio Fred pickup. This pickup in a set neck is pretty bloody good.

                    I had a sweet 650xl in that same color. It has chrome hw, EMG's, and a D-Tuna. She was very photogenic like her little sister you've got there. Nice git!

                      Looks like a PATB to me, too.

                        Nice guitar you have there!!great price too!
                        I have one just like it, As for the front pickup, when I got mine it was wired single coil so I rewired it and it is a lot more powerful and fuller sounding now
                        I have since changed out all the hardware to black, I relly love it!
