So I couldn't help but notice when comparing Warren's charvels side by side in some photos... that frenchy seems to have more of a soloist shape rather than the "fat strat" type body. particularly in the horns.. am I the only one who's noticed this?

Some of his sig models are strat bodies (X-Swords, skulls), and others are Dinky bodies (snake, Frenchie). Sometimes they use "San Dimas" to indicate a strat body (see the Adrian Smith model as well), but back in the day they just called them Strats or Vintage Style._________________________________________________

excellent just the info I was looking for. Thanks man. Cheers.Comment

I want one. I love Warren but the Frenchie is the only WDM sig I'd spend that kind of money on.Comment
-
Me too. I've always wanted the crossed swords... To bad there's no neck pickup... I total deal breaker for meComment

The 'French' has always been a Dinky body:
Now the Black or reverse French is awesome as well...
The DeMartini's that you can buy are the Strat bodies:

I always wondered who the hell translated this for Warren! This is some seriously bad translation of "too fast to live - too young to die"...Originally posted by Emerald View PostThe 'French' has always been a Dinky body:

Yes that is why this copyright by the original artist bs that has been the official Charvel reason why this graphic can't be used. It actually is incorrectly translated as you say..so the James Dean estate, which is insanely rich.. I think is the main reason why no official Charvel release of this one.Originally posted by BenoA View Post
It would be insanely popular and easily outsell all the other graphics..??:think:

Holy crappola! Chinese knock-offs! Have you looked at the Wolfies, the floyd system looks like an Ibanez Edge copy. Could not see the one on the Frenchy.Comment

I'm sure the Chinese can make a good guitar, but I've played a Gibson ZW counterfeit that looked amazing, but was absolute garbage. The finish was incredible, though I'm no fan of those...but the frets. I thnk they used a wire hanger for those. The intonation was worse than my dad's old Esteban acoustic. And the fake EMGs were dummies. They produced no sound whatsoever lol. I wonder what that douchebag former roommate ever did with it. Knowing him, he probably sold it to some kid. He paid a little over $300 for it, most of that shipping.Comment

That Chinese knock-off looks terrible! You're better off buying a dinky body and finding a graphic artist who will paint the French graphic for you.Comment

I'm holding out for Charvel to find a way to make it happen. I don't need one of those but I'd snatch one up in a heartbeat if it became available. By far the coolest Charvel Warren ever rocked IMO.Comment
