Charvel custom shop question

[MikeStrat]

For those of you who would spend the $ on a Charvel custom shop, what graphics/paint/specs would push you to actually pull the trigger and buy one? We've seen some cool runs in the past like the metalflake, zebra, EVH, DeMartini and a lot of one offs. But what would you do if you had the cash to do it? And please don't say buy 3 pro mods or Gibson LP.

I would really like to see what you guys have to say on this.

I'd get an orange and yellow rising sun or blood drip with pointy headstock

[toejam]

The only spec I'd really like is to have the truss rod adjustment at the nut!

[Predator1]

I tried and I even offered them more $ and they said absolutly not?

[Axewielder]

I'd be tempted by another one of those Fake E Lee runs.

I'd need that bullet truss rod adjustment at the headstock, too.

[rhoadsfan11]

I wish they made those white USA models with the black pick guard still.....I've been after a jake e inspired one for a really long time

[jacksonkellyfreak]

man id just want the old school logo with the pointy headstock after the L. Ive never ever seen a charvel with 3 on a side tuners, so why have that in the logo? dumb if you ask me.

I didn't offer more money but they did it for me. Hard to see in the pic but its at the headstock.

That is awesome Jack.

Is that a 24 fret PC1 neck? They did offer that as an option and said they would profile it to my liking. I just do not care for 24 fret necks.

The next gutiar I have on order which is a 7 string strathead

When i did that whitye run they had no problem doing the bullet truss rod BUT it was a good upcharge to do so

thats awesome, and Ide go for a dinky strathead, ebony board, floyd, H/S, maybe a reverse headstock?. IMO you just dont see enough ebony boards on super strats.

That is awesome Jack.

Thanks!

Its a 24 fret neck but not a PC1 neck. Same thing but different. The shape of the back is different.

I'd certainly buy one of those.

Too many ideas, not enough money....

- Candy red sparkle with matching headstock, gold hardware
- Orange creamsicle graphic with a maple neck (the "stick" of the 'sicle)
- Yellow and white bullseye graphic
- Purple sparkle and white bullseye graphic
- Hot rod flames graphic, with stained quilted maple serving as the "flames" under solid paint elsewhere
- Sea foam green with white pearloid pickguard, chrome hardware
- Wormhole graphic over black holoflake base
- Various warbird graphics in tribute to WWII fighter aces - must have at least one P51 and P38 :P
- Warbird graphic, but imitating a closeup of a battle-worn Star Wars X-wing fuselage instead
- Bound body flametop with tri-color burst, maple neck
- Hardtail Tele, ice blue metallic, bound body
- Trans teal quilt-top with maple neck and chrome hardware

...Guess I'll stop now. LOL
