    Help identifying this Charvette

    Hello everybody, I'm looking for a cheap guitar to use to make some videos of different pickup sounds, so a lot of soldering and work will be made on it.
    I found this Charvette, the seller is asking 325,00 euros (it has two Seymour duncans in it).
    Anybody can help me identifying it and finding out if it's worth it?
    Here are three pics of it

    Not MIJ though
    I know the old saying that the value of an opinion is generally inversely proportional to the strength with which it is held.

      They only made two MIJ and they are short scale and have a normal spaced bridge posts

        Thank you for the info. I think I'm going for it, do you believe it's a fair price or am I overpaying for it a lot?

          Its probably the absolute most i would pay for a charvette. The duncans help a bit.

            A fair price is up to you


            150 - 350

              Thanks everybody. I ended up paying 300, shipping included.
              let's see what happens, I'm going to definitely document the whole process of cleaning setting it up and I'll definitely block the trem bridge with some wood in the cavity.
              I was looking for a cheap H-S guitar to test different pickups, this looked nice

                Cool beans. Look forward to seeing how you mod it. I noticed in one of the pictures the neck has a factory "Made In Japan" sticker on it, and the neck has the narrow dot spacing too. I'd have thought MIJ too. I just picked a Charvette up to tinker with too. I got mine for 200 bucks out the door tax and all today.
