With its sharking inlays and finely bound fingerboard and headstock, the 475 Deluxe is a real looker. These hardly ever come up for sale, and I have never seen one this clean and original.Ĭonsignment Sale, as such, ALL SALES FINAL!! This guitar is really an un-played example from the end of the shred era of the 1980’s. The typical neck pocket cracks are present, these are not structural, they are a result of a tight neck pocket and thick paint on these well made guitars. It comes with the original chainsaw hardshell case and paper work. Other than that this guitar is pretty mint. The paint is almost flawless, a slight yellow mark on the lower right front of the face/top of the guitar where the nylon strap from the case played across the finish for 25 years. 2- pots were changed, the originals are included - the original pots were extremely cheap - with plastic wipers and the stops literally crumbled. This unbelievable 1990 Charvel 475 Deluxe just came in from the original owner - she is just about perfect. It seems that these guitars are set up in Eb tuning from factory.George's Music Center is a full line music center established in 1998. Overall, very happy with the guitar but the QC could have been better. It will take a while for me to get used to it. I come from using Stratocasters mainly and found the neck to be much more thinner. This combination is the outer coils from both neck and bridge pickups in parallel. I loved the 2 position pickup combination when turning on the series/parallel switch. The bridge pickup (SD full shred) is not bad, but it sounds very thin for my taste. The neck pickup is very good (SD Alnico II pro). Now it holds it's tune even when using the tremolo aggressively. I fixed this problem by not using the string trees. It is not very extreme but my Fender MIM from 2015 is far smoother feeling. The nut was poorly cut but I managed to remove the excess plastic with my hands. I then saw this guitar in a local guitar store for approximately $700 new. I was originally saving for a Solar A2.6 but the current corona situation made the price of dollar go crazy high (I'm not from US).
