Very cool MIJ Charvel Model 3A with some great upgrades!

The original tremolo has been replaced by the venerable Washburn Wonderbar....not a perfect route cosmetically but it functions 100% as it should

The pickups are replaced with a 1980s Seymour Duncan JB in DOUBLE WHITE! You don't see many of those! The single coils are some type of alnico but I'm not sure of the brand

A great player and I'm lovin' the Wonderbar...I've never played one until this and I love it!

The pickguard (I think it's an old Chandler pickguard) isn't a perfect fit but the trem route was right so I used it. I decided not to drill any additional holes to accommodate the guard so the next owner can decide what to do with that. Since I didn't redrill, there is some lift on the pickguard below the bridge pickup. It doesn't affect anything but it's there, for now.

There are some light dings, scratches, etc SEE PICS but nothing significant. The white finish has a nice patina now and looks to be a pearl/glitter type finish (original). Not BIG flake sparkle but I definitely see some flakes in it.
