The other guitarist from my old band has two
The second one is from the pre-fender days. Both MIJ I think.

jacksons are my guitar brand of choice. they are by far the best I've played, and they even make me feel like a better guitarist when i play them

I hear ya man! Except...
The Japanese SLS 3 I had.. AMAZING guitar.
Barre that though, USA RR1 and Stars TN-01 for me XD
I really should take new pics of my babies!
My current trinity:
Charvels for internal Japan market, this Model 6 (1989 year of production) seems to be some sort of signature model, SDK 085 (SuperDinky, Japan name for Fusion, hard to identify year, should be 1989 or 1993) similar to export Charvel Fusion Plus.
And Caparison also have relation to Japan Jackson department, because Itaru Kanno worked for Jackson before establishing Caparison.

Not marble, sometimes it can be found as Orange Crackle, rare enough.
Also note orange logo instead of white on black that is usual for first charvel`s lineup. Also there is shifted back route so that volume control below tremolo instead of bridge pickup.

There was similar Grover Jackson from ash, they can be found with reverse headstock. Also named SDK, but instead of shortscale Charvel SDK they were 25.5.
For example: http://sweetguitars.ru/good.php?id=3020&archive=
Also were models with offsetted dots.

Thanks for the link man. That's nice! If I was able to snag that right now I probably would.
Thanks. Charvel is need of a very good setup these days...
Some very nice Jackson in this thread. I dig the RR with the yellow bevel and that crackled Charvel!
Yes, I know, considering that this M6 is cheapest from this bunch
Around 400$ shipped from Japan. Hardware was in rather bad condition, the rest was good. Just changed floyd nut for Gotoh (slightly wrong choice, Shaller-made one would be better, more suitable radius), bridge PU for active (AHB-1 or 85, depending on the mood).

I want an Original 80's Charvel/Jackson
Is that a problem? They aren't so rare and expensive, and you can purchase it even without robbing a bank.

Does anyone have any experience with the newer "X" series? I was thinking of getting one of these for having one guitar in standard tuning, KVXMG:
