I've been on a mission the last several years searching for 24.75" scale super strat guitars. There just aren't that many of them without going custom shop. So 2 days ago I was in a local music store (Atlanta Discount Music, great store) dropping off a few things to put on consignment and decided to look around while I was there. There hanging on the wall was a Charvel Fusion in great shape. I was literally scouring Reverb and sites looking for a Fusion the night before.
It was on consignment for $450, I was like hell yes I'll take it. Spent tonight cleaning and setting it up. Neck was perfect, used a rocker and there were no unleveled frets, actions low and feels great, got a lot of grime off the fretboard, usually I don't mind that if it was "my grime", but it cleaned up nicely.
Came with an SH-4 which sounded ok. Also had 2 Lace Sensors that didn't sound very good to me. I had a BKP Crawler that I picked up here a while back, so I threw that in there and an Air Norton S in the neck and a Tone Zone S in the middle.
I thought for $450 what the hell, but just blown away. Tinted maple neck, love it. Made in Japan between 1989-1991. There are a few swirls under lights, but very few paint chips. The damn thing plays like butter, feels great.
