New Gear Day! // 1989/1990 Charvel Charvette Model 250

Check it out!
I recently picked up this killer Charvette axe, and it is awesome. I did some research, and I believe it to have been built around 1989 or 1990, as they only did this run for a couple of years. According to the catalogs, the closest thing to what mine is, was the model 270!
I had always wanted a crackle finished Charvel, and this one absolutely screams. If you see a Charvette in the wild for a good price, go for it!

I've always liked the Charvettes back then. I owned a stock canary yellow with paint splatter on it for a finish.

[@matthewtorossi8909]

Cool finish. Mine is a flat gloss white. Thanks for posting. Happy playing.

Those are sweet guitars, I had an orange one like this played just like my model 3. and those necks are smooth like "Butta". did you happen to look what humbucker you had in there?

[@theshreddly]

@@hamerhead2 That's awesome! And I haven't pulled it yet, but as far as I know it's the stock Charvel branded set that came in some of these axes back in the day. It has a surprising bright, yet fat tone to it, especially for being passive. I was impressed, beings most of what I hear on these things is kinda rough! Lol

Watching you right now live @GroundZeroBiloxi. Dope show man!!! 🔥💪

[@jesseparrish9198]

That locking nut sucks. Does yours stay in tune? Great playing btw!

[@theshreddly]

@@jesseparrish9198 Believe it or not, mine stays in tune really well! I was pretty surprised, it's killer!

[@jesseparrish9198]

@theshreddly that's awesome man. I think mine might be stripped from all of the years of tightening it down.

[@jswazz9264]

Looks like a Japanese made neck -I bet it does have the Charvel logo underneath…

[@theshreddly]

@@jswazz9264 It definitely is one killer playing neck; it feels pretty similar to my 86 MIJ Model 3A's neck! I'm leaving it be, but I'll admit, I am curious! Lol

[@jswazz9264]

The close set dots are a clear indication of a MIJ - 🤘

[@spiller3214]

Have one that looks similar but it just blue 250 but the Floyd rose licence bridge block has crumbled and was wondering if anyone know if I can get replacement bridge? So I can put it back together Thanks

[@theshreddly]

@@spiller3214 I know a lot of the old heads and old school players in a lot of the Charvel groups on Facebook have been a huge help! I've never needed to, but my 1986 MIJ Model 3A is missing some parts, that's the first place I'd ask around! Theres a few websites that sell some great vintage parts online as well!🤘🤘🤘

@@theshreddly thank you for the reply 👍🎸

I had a blue one, I regret selling it.
