1988 Charvel by Jackson 1A2H Superstrat Black HH w/ Locking Tremolo, Japan

Up for sale, a 1988 Charvel by Jackson Model 1A2H in excellent condition and in perfect working order. Made at the Chu Shin factory in Japan as part of a licensing agreement between IMC and Charvel/Jackson, this Model 1A2H is a textbook Super Strat with a pair of Jackson humbuckers, modified with a locking nut and Floyd Rose Licensed TRS-101 tremolo.

Weighing 8lbs 11oz, the tonewood pairing of a basswood body and maple neck delivers a balanced, articulate natural response, complimented by the pair of Jackson J-90C pickups. Via the three-way blade pickup selector, the guitar offers various shades of rich humbucker growl and punch. This Charvel 1A2H benefits from a professional setup here at Mike and Mike’s Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, spot-on intonation, and fast action.
