1987 Charvel Model 1A in Ferrari Red.

All original with little to no fret wear. Plays and sounds great up and down the maple fretboard. Just set up with Fender Super 250'S in 9-42. Frets polished, feels great.

A couple of tiny bumps on the lower edge of the headstock and the 3rd fret that I have clear filled. Cannot feel the neck bump and the headstock bumps are superficial at best. See the photos, I'm talking it up, but in reality, they are miniscule and to most a non issue.

Other than that, it has the typical polish swirling on the front of the body as well as the original pickguard. I tore down the pickguard and ran plastic polish a few times and tamed down the scratches, it presents well, as a played original, undamaged guard. 

A light scratch here or there on the body, but nothing through to the wood and absolutely nothing major. One rub mark near the output jack, easily erased, if the new owner cares.

Original 8 screw pickguard, pickups, Gotoh tremolo, tuners, and dome knobs.

Overall a well kept, collector piece that plays very well. Hard to find well sorted and with the tip in tact! Tonal variation on these are just terrific.

Original tremolo arm is included.

 The description is as good as you can get and packing will be perfect, so no returns.
