How 'bout it!
My nerdy-ass has been checking the Charvel site about every half hour today!
 
Yeah, saw the pdf this morning over at JCF and pm'd a few about it.
 
It's ok to post that, Jackson did already.

Wait for the video though, the guitars never look good in those PDF pictures. Plus the video reveals a little more.
 
Since the cat is out of the bag......................

That snakeskin h/s IS THE FUCKING SHIT!!!!!!!!

Too bad it is collector priced and not player priced :cry:

Those are the new ones?

I thought those were all already available thorugh the custom shop...at roughly the same price, no?
 
Whew! Was worried, really! Only saw it during lunch break (after trolling through other forums I'm not registered at). I was waiting to let a regular post it here. I caved after 10 min, lol!

The Flat Black single hum with chome hardware was sooooooo close (for me), DAMN! If only that had a neck pup, hum OR even a sinlge, I'd order today. Grrrr! Now I dunno, the SanDimas with 2 hums in normal black or the STILL CALLING TO ME SeaSick Green at a local shop, hmmm...

edit: Oh yeah, have to agree about the snake skin - had to pick my mouth up off the deck as I scrolled down, that is quite nice!!!

I never saw them before :confused:

$3500 is WAY over what I pay for a guitar though :cry:

Just to be clear, I was talking about the DiMartini stuff....pretty sure I've seen all of those before, but I'm not a Charvel guy, so could be waaaayy wrong :lol: :LOL:

Cool stuff either way :thumbsup:

Off the shelf guitars won't always be exactly what you want. It costs hardly anything to rout for a neck pickup and it would be totally normal to do that on a Charvel. I did that on my favorite 1984 Charvel. I put a single in the neck 20 years ago. Cost me $45 for the rout. No big deal at all. These are hot-rodded guitars that are made for more hot-rodding. All three of mine have been changed to make them exactly what I want.

You haven't seen a San Dimas Style 1 in candy tangerine with a rosewood neck or a So Cal in slime green or a flat black single hum with chrome hardware. Those are the three new ones.

That DeMartini snakeskin should street price around $2600 or possibly a little less.

Yup, nice thing about the socal is that you can put another pickguard on it and have whatever you want - SSS, HSH, HS, H, etc.

Curt, are the yellow and blue flames now going to be available in greater numbers? I was kinda digging on having the 2nd of only 25 guitars. ;0

Gotcha. Appreciate the clarification.:thumbsup:
 
I am between a Sea Sick Green San Dimas and Slime Green SoCal.

And maybe the black wild card.

:doh:

I really dig the San Dimas models. Seasick green would be my choice. Change the hardware to chrome, and the pickups to zebra.... :rock:
 
Curt,


HAd a wonderful conversation with Jay, told him to tell you Mr Vai called.

So-Cal Slime is mine.
