My new Charvel, photos

[6_jao]

Hello, this is my new Charvel, the serial number may be 2005, what would you think?
Can you provide more details?

[Grandturk]

Well, your pictures are tiny, so I can't see the serial number, or the knob. Is it a pointy or a strat-head?

If its a pointy, it may well be from the 2005 run of San Dimas pointies.

If its a strathead, then its newer 08-09.

edit:

Sorry - no skunk stripe, so its a pointy. So its probably from the 2005 run.

Looks like a real nice guitar - clean. None more black. An ebony board would be killer on that.

It may be the body of alder and maple neck?

Floyd Rose is the German manufacturer is or is not quality?

Check the Charvel Info chart @ the top of the forum - 6648 is not listed, but that just means no one reported it. It does date it to 2005.

The neck and fretboard are definately maple, as you can plainly see.

I think all of these were alder bodies - but I had heard that some were basswood, using up stock left from the EVH run (that might just be a rumor).

I hope you enjoy the guitar and aren't just mining info for an ebay ad.

Yes - these had German made Floyds. They are fine.

This guitar is in my hands for 10 days, I bought new in Spain, and the better you know them better. The neck is very thin and fast, like my Ibanez S320.

Anyone know how many pieces the body is composed

Anyone know how many pieces the body is composed

Probably 2, but it could be 3. Sometimes the finish sinks into the seams and you can see them in the right light... some people think that's bad, but I like to think of it as character.
