NGD: Musikraft/Charvel tribute

[projectx102]

Picked this one up from EBay for a killer price. Its got a Musikraft San Dimas body finished in nitro and lightly aged. The neck is a Musikraft Charvel profile with nice rolled edges and an aged oil finish. Hardware is an original German made Floyd with a huge brass block and original Gotoh crown head tuners. Pickup is a Dimarzio Super Distortion. This axe plays and sounds huge. Biggest tone I've ever gotten from a Floyd loaded axe. It's got a great growl on the bottom end, nice top end cut and tons of sustain.

Congratulations and HNGD. It looks great. I have plenty of Musikraft necks and its good stuff

I was watching that one, almost bid on it a few times but bought an amp instead!

Love the Musikraft/Charvel matchup. Musikraft makes great parts. Mine is the opposite, with a Promod body and custom Musikraft neck:

The frets were great right out of the box. No need for leveling. 4-5 coats of Tru-Oil and it was ready to go!

HNGD! Lately this place has been filled with guitars I would LOVE to have as well (well...who the hell am I kidding, ALL the guitars posted here end up on my list... ).

Where did you get the body and hardware btw?

Congrats! That neck looks beautiful!

Congrats! That neck looks beautiful!

Pictures don't do it justice man. It is darker than the pictures. The guitar truly looks like it came out of the Charvel shop in the early 80's and was hardly played over the course of 30 years.
