'89 Charvel Spectrum. Fucking awesome guitar.

Desert crackle doesn't show up well on phone photos, way sicker in person. I had been looking for one of these forever. The only ultra objectionable thing the past owner did was replace the excellent Schaller double locking trem with a single locking kind. Needless to say a black double locker is the first thing happening to this. Once the board gets properly oiled and I replace all the hardware with black stuff it's going to be a hell of a guitar. Past owner took off the pickguard and had the holes filled too, nice job, you can't even notice.

EMGs sound awesome. It's my Yngwie guitar. Might even get it scalloped.

These are cool little guitars with the right kind of short-horn, square-edged Dinky body style. That looks cool without the pickguard, but I always liked the '51-style pickguard on these. A black one would look amazing against that cream and black crackle.
