Charvel USA Production Model Series

[shreddermon]

These Charvels are not for collectors or those wishing to relive 1982. These Charvels are for those in the market for a decent guitar with a lineage reaching back to the days of old. They were never meant to compete in the space of the vintage Charvels or even with the custom shop, custom built Charvels of today.

As a player, collector, and interested party in the brand, image, history, and story...anytime we can extend the Charvel name and associate them with a USA made product is a good thing.

these guitars look like awesome deals at their price point and they have what EVERYBODY (pretty much) was bitching about when fender first bought jackson - a PRODUCTION MODEL STRATHEAD. these guitars have "name" partsd - dimarzio, OFR, etc....i CAN'T believe there are STILL people bitching about these. i am glad A LOT of you are supporting these guitars and see what FENDER (for all you whiny dicks) has done and given in the course of a few years.

something i learned a long time ago helped make me a lot happier....IF YOU HAVE NOTHING NICE TO SAY (or you don't like something) SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!

Yup, that was Thumper's mom that said that, and she was right.

Bret, thanks for a concise, informative historical summary that was very enjoyable to read.

FMIC, thanks for advancing the Charvel brand and giving us great Made In USA guitars at a great price. When your most frequent complaints involve a knob and a gig bag, both of which can be replaced in about 5 minutes, you're on the right track.

lol, i`d rather everyone bitched and hated these guitars and refused to buy them. More for the rest of us to buy then I`ll not say i`m not concerned about not being able to get my green style 1 when they`re released because of high demand. Haters work well for us outside the US that get the leftovers lol we need more of em.

Great quote and spot-on accurate.

These new FENVELS suck ass!
everyone that has one should sell them fast before the real truth comes out and no one wants them! these are assured to become firewood after that!

















Ps, let me know if you have a black SD style 1 to sell?

[SEAN RAF]

These Charvels won't be in the UK until end of September, early October...I can't wait that long. I've ordered a red Style 1 from the Music Farm in Ohio, should be with me here in sunny Stoke next Friday.

As soon as it's here, I'll post pics, even though you'll all be sick of the sight of them by then.

FedEx Blows! My new SoCal/Tangerine Was not due to arrive until Monday. Last night I noticed it had already made it from Indiana to Ontario Ca. in a day. i get all pumped thinking it will be delivered today since it is only 35 min from the house. The tracking now says not due for delivery till 7/21. What the fuck it sits at FedEx all weekend!

Can you go pick it up?

Not to derail the thread with GM bashing, but I moved about a year ago and since BMW is a locally produced product I feel the need to bash all other brands of automobiles.

I do, however, drive a Toyota.

[Woman_Driver]

When/will we get the series in the UK is what i want to know!
ie in a store, not off the interweb.

Ya know, all this mindless jibber jabber aside - these seem like absolutely killer guitars for the current price of $999 shipped (or $800 if you buy on Ebay with the 20% off deal through Live.com/Ebay/Paypal).

I am seriously thinking of getting one to put a Roland GK pickup on.
