Up for sale, a circa 1990 Charvel by Jackson DK-065-SSH in excellent condition and in perfect working order. Made at the Chu Shin factory in Japan for the Japanese domestic market, this Superstrat is built to shred, featuring an SSH pickup complement, Floyd Rose-licensed tremolo, and a gloss Snow White finish.

Essentially a revision of the Model 3 Charvel platform, the DK-065-SSH features a yellow poplar body, quartersawn rock maple neck, and slab 22-fret maple fretboard. The bridge pickup is a Jackson J-90C distortion class humbucker with an accentuated low frequency response. The pair of single coils are Jackson J-100s, delivering classic Strat articulation and snap in the neck and middle positions. The five-way blade pickup selector switch offers a variety of voicing options via the SSH configuration, yielding vintage-flavored single coil cut and thick, ripping drive. This DK-065-SSH is featherweight at 6lbs 13oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, slinky action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Snow White finish shows uniform yellowing of the clear coat, with some expected pick wear across the strum path, light buckle wear on the back and a few minor marks on the body as a whole. The neck profile’s satin finish is smooth and fast-feeling.
