Wanted: Charvel 475 Platinum Crackle

darren_s

Hello

I'm looking for a 89-91 Charvel in Platinum Crackle. As far as I know, the only model this came in is a 475 Deluxe.

Anyone out there willing to part with one?

Cheers

Not cheap for a toothpaste variant.

I know! I actually bidded £650 on it on the last 10 secs and it went for £670 at the very last second!!! That's exactly the kind of axe I'm looking for! Gutted I missed it by a few notes.

I have a 3DR in fire crackle.. it sees little action but is a great guitar..  god knows how much that would fetch these days.

Thanks for your reply. Hmmmm.... it is tempting. They are lovely guitars. I don't yet own a 3DR. I'd really love a 475 Platinum though, and if one comes up and I've spent my dough on the 3DR....   

What condition is it in?

The pickups have been replaced for dimarzio single and evolution humbucker, although I have originals.

The rest is original. Decent condition but not mint obviously. Tip has been glued back on.
