Charvel Avengers

[MountainDog]

The other bad thing about the Avengers is the single locking bridge. Strings only lock at the nut, they thread through the tube on the bridge that is made to look like a locking screw.

there are 2 different years of the avenger, I guess 1 year maybe was ply wood I do not know but some had the single locking bridge(schaler 570) with the double single cols and some had a a double locking bridge(takeuchi) and a humbuker.

My Avenger had a Model 88 neck and was modded for a humbucker and had a real Floyd. lol

So that's why I bought it. Otherwise I wouldn't have.

Take and go.... :-)

If you see one with a single and a slanted hum someone has altered the body to fit a slanted hum as they came with 2 back to back singles in hum configuration in a slanted hum look. many have a modified body to except a regular hum.

finding an unaltered one is relatively uncommon, finding one in general is relatively easy. at any given time there are a few out for sale online.

how do they play? they aren't half bad.

expect $199 - $450 for one depending on condition.

Found the neck I'd want. Right scale, right color, right logo....
Would need to make a body.

Bad part is AlienX is the $eller and ha$ already refu$ed my 2 rea$onable offer$.

[MuttznMongrelz]

His pricing is redonkulous.

[artonsafari]

The listing says it's a Model series neck, and it is not. He wants almost what I paid for my SDK for a stripped neck! Surprised he left the truss rod cover on and doesn't have that listed separately for $38 plus shipping.

AlienX has nothing you want, nothing anybody wants unless they're prepared to mortgage their house, sell their family & bend over to take the backdoor bashing he wants them to take.

Truth! +10.

He reminds me of some local backyard classic car parts guys. There is gold in them thar parts!

Thought I would resurrect this thread. Saw this Avenger for sale on Denver CL - local sale only. Not sure if it's still available since the ad has been up for almost 3 weeks. But thought I would pass it along in case someone here is still looking for one.

Here's one in Trois-Rivières, which is halfway between Montreal and Quebec City. CAD$600.

To the best of my translating ability, the ad in English (if I cleaned up the way it's written) would be: Hello, I am selling this 1990 Charvel Avenger model. The guitar has a rare and very special colour. It's metallic orange/pink/red and comes with its molded case. $600, a bit negotiable.

[G37-R34DY]

Here is one for sale right now:

I would get it and fix it but...with no case there's no way it could arrive safely with overseas shipping.

C'mon, why the fuck did it have to be white?!
I JUST got a new guitar!

[Avsrule_2002]

I just purchased an Avenger body and have a 275 DLX neck I was going to put on it, but it doesn't fit. The heel of the neck is 3/16 too long to line up the screw holes. I figured all bolt on toothpaste logo necks with 22 frets long scale would be the same? Or is the original Avenger neck different?
