About This Listing

Thank you for checking out our Vintage, Circa 1987 / 1988 Charvel Model 3A in Ferrari Red finish with the factory original Charvel “chainsaw” hardshell case. 


Made in Japan


This particular Model 3A is 99%* original and ready to shred. These are very cool guitars for several reasons. The Model 3A’s from this era in Ferrari Red and Electric Blue are the only ones to come with a JT-6 Trem and NO pickguard.


The neck on this guitar is super comfortable and fast. 100% honest play wear is to be found on this fine guitar. A few minor dings to the body and headstock chip are the only things keeping this guitar from being listed as mint. *The two backplates are repros and you will need to get screws for them. Perfectly normal for a guitar that has been a workhorse for the last four decades. 


Overall this guitar is in Very Good condition. The case is functional with one missing latch.


This is a great opportunity to purchase a sweet vintage Charvel that is 99% original, has 100% fret life, 2 original Jackson USA J-80C humbuckers and tons of “cool factor.”


This guitars quality and performance is not only on par with the new Charvels rolling out of Mexico and Japan…It exceeds them. Why buy a newer repro when you can own an original vintage Charvel? 


Be sure to check out our extensive inventory of Vintage Charvel and Jackson guitars from the mid eighties to early 90’s.
