Notably the Snake Skin matching headstock oneDon't forget the corn. It's nutritious, delicious, and ribbed for her pleasure.

It does seem a bit lame compared to batch 7. I really liked the trans candy gold and trans ale red finishes. This batch seems lame in comparison. But that's only one man's opinion. I'm sure some love it.Breaking Point, my all instrumental CD available here:

I disagree about the batch being boring. We have a slime green so cal. People have been clamoring for something to build a green meanie out of. BAM! There it is. They only need to sell 150 of them. I predict nearly instant sell out.
The candy tangerine So Cal was the first model to sell out and it was in the first batch. All along I have wished they would have done that color in the SD1. They did. Is it perfect as is for me? No. I want to put creme rings and double cream Duncans or maybe zebra Duncans. Now look at the guitar and imagine that. Now switch that black hardware for chrome. Perfect guitar for me. Modified and hot rooded by me, for me. EXACTLY was hot rod guitars like Charvel were intended to be.
And the flat black single hum with chrome hardware? That isn't my favorite color, but my close buddy is crazy with excitement to get it. He has a black SD1 already and he wants the chrome hardware on his SD1 and is putting the black hardware on the flat black. His idea of a perfect looking guitar, times two. And lots of guys refinish these guitars. Imagine the possibilities there.
If you are like the large group on here who don't think they should have to change anything on a guitar and that it's designerr would just automatically design your exact perfect vision for a guitar before you'll buy it, well I wonder if your ideas of Charvel and what you do with them are different than mine. I know the guys at Charvel see these as cool guitars to begin with, but excellent platforms to take whereever you want.

Still what's important is you're liking the line and Fender have done their job. As long as they don't disappoint 75% of the fans out there, than we're fine.

I think this batch they gave us what we had said they'd love from the previous batches.
When the tangerine socal came out everyone was like -"that would be awesome in the style one" and they gave it too us in the style two. I REALLY like this one
Slime green socal-again when that came on the style 1 everyone was like "that would be awesome in the socal so we could do a green meanie"
the black one humbucker again people said last batch that they would love that in black.
To me they gave us our wish list. Some may think it's lame but you also have to remember that they don't want to take away any thunder from what's coming. Since the last 2 batch videos have been late I think they have been working hard on what's coming for a while.

I'm wondering if it's uber-limited Stars. The Impossible Dream:
Style1: 2 Hum/Floyd/Strathead
Style2: 1 Hum/v-trem/Strathead
Style3: 2 Hum/v-trem/Strathead
Style4: 1 Hum/Floyd/Strathead
Or maybe they'll be built by the Hamer guys this time, under guidance from the Charvel bunch, and be Roundhorn Vs and Explorers?I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood
