Review : Played the new USA Charvels and am now a dealer

[Drkorey]

Does the truss adjust at the head or the heel?

 

[EvilBatman]

Chubtone, what's the name of that red color? Maybe Ferrari red?

Candy Apple Red homie.

 

[EvilBatman]

Here's the other ones in case y'all haven't seen these pics.

Will the pickups always stay the same? Or will they swap the DiM's and the SD's around too?

What will be the street price? Since there ain't no Charvel Dealers in Belgium, I have to import.

 

[maiden_fan]

Put a deposit down on a black style 1, ive been waiting for a charvel to come up at the right price and the more classic style of this will go well with my Musikrafts.

Dealer reckons aug-sept for UK.

I want one of the tele's in a hardtail version and a different color. I guess I will start saving and watch for the new colors. What is the street price on these?

 

[Jakem]

Those look nice and the price isn't too shabby. It'd be cool to see a white one with reversed headstock.

I REALLY like those Tele type bodies....any chance of seeing these without a whammy bar? I would be all over that

Charvel USA made gig bags, available in different colors every quarter. Comes with guitar.

...SWEET GUITARS!!!

I understand them trying to keep costs down, but they should at least offer a hardshell case as an upgrade. But they do look cool, and I would like to have one someday.

One thing I don't like is the gray looking pickup rings and the volume knob looks kinda cheap. Those would be cheap and easy fixes though.

The pickup rings are flat black and look cool in person. That knob however is another story. It's gotta go.

The first thing that I would do to the black Charvel is add some Chrome plated pickup rings and a Chrome volume knob

I hate not having any money! If I did, Id be getting 2

A Sykes model?

I am thinking about some cream pickup rings and double cream Duncan pickups in one of them to really go old school

Allparts has them! You can also find them on E-bay but most of the sellers use allparts

Thanks....I'm putting a HSH Strat together with a Dave Murray-esque twist.

Cool!! Keep in mind that they have the shit chrome plated plastic ones or the metal Chrome ones! Just be careful because I once bought the plastic ones by accident !!
