This morning I read what you posted and told my dad to look at it. My mom bought him a charvel guitar in 1984 for christmas. Last year they bought me one just like it at a pawn shop for my birthday and my dad has been trying to taech me to play. Some times dads guitar would get fuzy sounding and quit working. He turns the volum and tone nobs and it will work again for a while. He took it to a shop and the man said it was not fixable and tried to buy it from him to use the parts. He told dad he would give him 100 dolars trade in on a newer one just like it but dad said it was a present and would not trade. I saw what you wrote about the siets and books. I check them out and now we know why the man wanted his guitar. It is a all orignal stock standard 3 made in the us. It does look just like the model 4 like you said only it has the 4 diget number and the right plate on it. They paid to much for mine. It is a model 4 made in japan with the switches and kahler trem options. The plate on back says made in fort worth tx. and the head says made in usa on it but it has a six diget serial # that don't match up. The trem says 1984 on it but that is when it was made and not the guitar. I think it is a 1987. We needed new strings and before we put them on we took off the necks to see if it had writing under it like the site said and his did. My dad wants to know if the spray stuff you talk about in the other mesages will fix his and what brand to get. Me and dad both says thanks.
