Step on stage with the effortless swagger of a classic 80s hot-rod axe without having to spend decades putting the miles on it. Built on a foundation of resonant alder, this machine features a distressed nitrocellulose lacquer finish that gives it the broken-in look and comfortable feel of a well-loved road warrior right out of the gig bag. Charvel’s modern San Dimas legacy traces back to the southern California movement that defined hard rock, giving you timeless Southern California performance paired with unmistakable vintage attitude.
Underneath that road-worn exterior lies a tone powerhouse designed for raw performance. Direct-mounted to the body, a high-octane Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 in the bridge delivers biting clarity and screaming leads, while the Seymour Duncan '59 SH-1N in the neck pumps out warm, sweet overtones and classic rock crunch. legendary shredders like Warren DeMartini and Jake E. Lee helped put Charvel’s high-performance double-cutaways on the map, and this streamlined HH setup carries that fire forward with a single volume knob and 3-way toggle switch for effortless tone-shaping.
Engineered for lightning-fast modern playability, the bolt-on maple neck boasts graphite reinforcement rods to keep things stable through heavy touring. Rolled fingerboard edges pair with a 12"-16" compound radius pau ferro fretboard to make low-end rhythm work buttery smooth while opening up the higher frets for effortless bends without fretting out. Paired with a recessed Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo system, you can throw down massive dive bombs and dramatic pitch squeals while keeping your tuning rock-solid all night long.
