Charvel USA Production Model Series

ALL Pickguards bother me!!!

Then it sounds like either a San Dimas Style 1 or Style 2 2H is more to your liking.

So I'm assuming since $999 is the price on the Charvel site, that it is the list/retail/MSRP price, not MAP?

The dealers I've checked are charging pretty close to the $999 price.

I have been wanting a strat, but the Fender necks just don't do it for me with the 9.5 radius. The EJ has a 12 but they are of course finished. I would love one of these because the necks are much more to my liking. However, I have too many guitars with Floyds and I would like another V-trem even a fixed bridge would be nice. I have never had a Floyd to V-trem conversion done... :-)

Is this for all the models or just the limited colors? I can see not discounting the tangerine since everyone wants one. Probably not a huge profit margin either.

[Jimmydenton]

anyone know how much these will get jacked up when they hit the UK?

[thetroy]

Probably something like 800 GBP, but that's just a wild guess.

i hate that sh*t they always jack the prices up loads

After I did my Pre Order, I did a little shopping around. Every dealer I spoke with but one where selling for 999.00
The dealer I bought from gave me a pretty good deal

I have to laugh at the timing of this. When these less-expensive Charvels were said to be in the wings, I made the comment that they'd be very tempting to me. But I snagged a Music Zoo Natural series last month and now, here is the entry-level Charvel. Oh well, with how nice the MZ Natural is, I'm glad I didn't have a choice to make based at least partly on price.

But I'm glad to see FMIC bringing these out. I think they are responding to what a certain market segment wants. I hope that they rotate a bunch of cool colors through the choices and who knows, maybe do a simple graphic or two as part of a very limited edition.

Much to my surprise, I did follow that. Still leaves me with the same problem. Grab an orange now, or take a chance on a green So-Cal and maybe get left out.

I'm in the same place you are on this (want green SD1, but like the tangering SoCal1 also), but we won't be getting left out. some of these will be up on the Bay used by the time the new colors roll out 3 months from initial delivery. if we can't have a green SD, we'll find some version we'll like, one way or the other.

Concerns about the trem aside,, I pulled the trigger on a San Dimas today..

Time to start sellin off some equipment I guess

Good guess, £750-£800 was what i was quoted the other day from a UK Charvel dealer $5-600 increase in price,

Ohhh man, those Harmony Central high-resolution pictures are awesome. Gonna have to implement some sort of savings plan here... I consider myself very moneywise for a 24-year-old and I can drop the cash in a heartbeat for one of these babies, but I'm also splurging my life savings for a down payment on my first home especially since I'm desperate to get away from my roommates who are completely draining the life out of me.

Self control... must wait for a used black one to show up...
