The original Charvel Surfcaster is distinguished by a bound semi-hollow offset body and a single cat's eye f-hole. A variety of lipstick and humbucker pickup combinations were available, with a JT-40 vibrato bridge and roller nut. The figured top is worth slightly more than plaintop models.

*Not to be confused with the hard tail HT model, the plaintop version or the less valuable Surfcaster Standard (with no f-hole).

Years of Production: 1991 - 1995
