I don’t know if I “met” a bad batch - but couldn’t believe how ropey the finishing was on the neck of these...felt unfinished (not as in “without finish” as in ‘someone’s not finished sanding that...’)
There was a 4 & 5 string which felt the same.
Although...the pickguard looks decent - the question is, would that Jackson pickguard fit on the charvel...
Edit - Ah, 21 frets vs 20. Always makes more sense to me...
