If I compare my guitars I would say the 78 Sunburst ist on the brighter side and delivers very shiny, sparkling harmonics. If you are searching for a guitar that can do all the fine nuances - an old Sunburst is the one.  My friend owns a 80 Sunburst that seems louder but the sound and feel is...

I own Sunburst 8 0574. Seems to be a late one too. She is equipped with the sustain block and not with the shimmed bridge.

My daughter likes the 80s stuff.

Here is a video from Mike Burn that demonstrates this very well. He is or was a member too. Aaahhh, no its an Bill Lawrence and I cannot delete the post. But you can still enjoy the Sunburst demo.

My friend plays this lightning sky model with Floyd Rose. It is a RR1 if there is "Made in U.S.A." under the "Jackson" on the headstock. Serial should start with O or U.

If you can live with a modern sound  (lacking of warmth in my opinion) then go for it. These guitars play phenomenal and are lightweights. The ones that I heard had very good (Strat-ish) sounding neck pups. You could listen to a master and endorser of this guitar in the band Scar Symmetry.

I totally agree with the to much bling thing!

Never seen a Chaparral with crowned board. Was it a custom option? The shop is a former Hamer Dealer. Talked to the owner last year and he could tell so much interesting stories about the 70s/80s, the brands and the musicians that stopped by (Scorpions etc.) it was just amazing. Later I found...

As usual no affiliation. I dig this wild top and the price seems fair. Hamer Studio 1997 - Natural https://reverb.com/item/86044662?utm_source=android-app&utm_medium=android-share&utm_campaign=listing&utm_content=86044662

Beautiful axe!

85 Scepter on the left, 82 Standard on the right equals 83,5 right?

Ok. A Californian without everything what makes a Californian. 

That's a beauty! 

I wish you all the best for your surgery.

The Chorus in my Eventide H3000 is thick and round and rich. The best Chorus  IMHO.
