Pictured is the Vintage 1980 Charvel Body with Rising Sun Graphic
This guitar was manufactured by Charvel in 1980 and with the factory original Rising Sun Paint/Artwork of which is said there were less than 100 real Charvels made with this art. Its authentic.
For many years I recorded detailed specifications and measurements of every part of certain brands from this era the 1980s. Prior to making a name for myself on Ebay and prior to creating this website I was known as The SENSEI OF VINTAGE 1980'S GUITARS 禪 ( translated SENSEI 禪 = the teacher ).
I’ve pretty much sold off the balance of Charvel pre-pro stuff I owned with the exception of a few things. Now I’m using the data i recorded and wrote down detailing these guitars to manufacture our AXN™ Guitars
