    good stuff Doc, I owned a similar Charvel in the 90's, it was cream in colour, wish I still had photo's I can't even remember if the bridge was a floyd and if it had one or 2 pups. Also I own an Eston bass that I scored off a mate who didn't want to take it travelling, it's even got the same shape headstock

    I'm seriously considering going with just a single bridge humbucker pickup when I start working on the new Superstrat build project, maybe a Black Entwistle HDN pickup, or maybe a Darkstar, something is telling me to make it a real simple setup, those Charvel Model 2 guitars were really good sounding for playing Heavy Rock and Metal, which is one of the reasons why I'm missing my old Charvel, I seem to remember giving it away to someone who tried to convert it to a Bass Guitar, I gave it away because it needed a replacement neck and bridge and I had no idea where I could buy replacements from, this was back in the early 90's before the internet became what it is now.
