    You just can't go wrong with a Charvel. Been playing them since I bought my Model 4 new in 1987. I've now also got a '87 Model 6, a '89 750xl, a 2010 USA San Dimas and a 2011 So Cal. Love em all, but none can touch that first love of mine, the Model 4.

    The ebony fret board looks so good on that guitar. 😊

    Holy Brad Gillis...I think I'm in love...lol. I have three Pro Mod So Cal guitars...Purple, Candy Apple Red, and Rocket Red. They are the most versatile guitars I own. I am sooo digging that Ferrari Red. It may be time to dent the old bank account.

    I have one of these Charvel Pro Mod guitars and it and my 2 EVH Wolfgangs are my favorites. This is the epitome of a rock and roll guitar. Thing is built like a tank and will last a lifetime. Peace from Worcester....Wista!

    I 100% agree with you. I have my eye on the Charvel Pro Mod San Dimas style 1. Basically the same guitar without a pick guard, in white with a maple fretboard and chrome hardware. All you NEED and nothing more. I have 10 guitars I actually use but none can cover everything I play ...this could.

    • @I.am_Groot
      @I.am_Groot 2 месяца назад

      Facts.. The Floyd's are nice rolled fingerboards and the pickups do anything you want from solid clean to soulful blues to shred to crunch

    Well done Steve…I would love to see Charvel put the “pointy” headstock on a few models…just because 🤘

    Great throwback to the 80's there. Why does it look like they torqued the pickguard screws down with an impact driver?

    Lots of nice ones this year. I have played several of the new models. The necks are killer and the work is solid.

    Charvels are beautiful guitars they also sound great as well I like the fender headstock on these guitars swesome.

    Since 2018 i sold two of my gibson les pauls a '91 classic and '97 standard and instead ended up with san dimas charvel with JB/59. Ash body with maple neck and ebony fretboard. The neck is perfect has a great feel.

    I bought one and returned it. Super heavy guitar! I couldn't have that thing around my neck for more than 30 minutes LOL

  • @GuitarLordGR
    @GuitarLordGR 2 месяца назад +2

    It would look MUCH better with a maple fretboard!

    Love the GOTW segment!! Would love to see charvel add the contoured heel like the amPro II strats and Jim root charvel.

    That alder body reminds me of my American Standard Strat. Thin layer maybe

  • @TheTactical6string
    @TheTactical6string 2 месяца назад

    Tasty, Ebony on a Charvel is also a bonus . I dont have a single guitar with a pickguard, need to change that. The Pro mods are on par with the 2000's era USA's, and neither gets a pass on fretsprout . Ive got a White with Gold hardware DK24FR, it has the look.

  • @GerryBlue
    @GerryBlue Месяц назад

    Looks cool, how's the neck? I had a San Dimas 2017 and just couldn't get used to the neck, too flat contour and 10 to 16 radius, that's just too much for me

  • @ro307805
    @ro307805 2 месяца назад

    The thing holding me back on this guitar has been the maple fretboard. Now that i can get ebony im a buyer

  • @NiqScott
    @NiqScott 2 месяца назад +1

    Sweet guitar, but I hate to see scratchplate screws too tight. If the scratchplate material is too thin, I'd have to swap it out for something thicker.

    • @larrys639
      @larrys639 2 месяца назад +2

      That does look bad. First thing you notice - over torqued pick guard screws or thin cheap plastic. For a high quality guitar you'd think someone in quality control would fix that.

  • @toddclarke1580
    @toddclarke1580 2 месяца назад

    This guitar could be my answer to morphing my les Paul with my Strat. Can switch from the Police spanky clean , Zepp, Talking heads. Bon Jovi. It’s also got the Brad Gillis Vibe.

    So which plays better, this one or the Schecter Sun Valley?

  • @wasteddude9387
    @wasteddude9387 2 месяца назад

    Oh, God! What kind of karma did you earn to have free access to such beautiful looking and sounding guitars, and be able to shred them too? Good Lord! You must be some kind of saint! That’s it. Saint Steve, the Patron Saint of the Immaculate Jam.

  • @MarcCoteMusic

    Beautiful guitar but I need that middle pickup... It's probably the one I use around 75% of the time at most gigs.

  • @jray5363
    @jray5363 2 месяца назад

    Don’t think I’ve ever seen a Charvel in person, but it’s on the list! Someday! Would a collection be complete without one?

      You aren't going to believe how good the neck feels. Seriously the best around.

    But I made a promise to myself that every guitar from here on out needs stainless steel frets.

    8lbs is about average for a Mexican So Cal, the DK's have the smaller body so if anyone wants something a little bit lighter from charvel thats where you should look.

    Why can my left hand play the strings on a guitar fret board but operate a mouse on a PC? Loses all motion skills period!

    Great video, Was having a chat with Buddy, he said it would be cool if you could hang onto them a little longer and use in your live show. Or keep the best of the batch for a live show demo..
