  • 1 flame, 2 flame...Red Flame! Blue Flame! Which do you like best?

    Okay, kiddies!! I've waited patiently for THREE YEARS to get these two guitars in the ring together. So here's the info on these two: The red flame Charvel is a Custom Shop guitar painted by the one and only Mike Learn. The graphic is called "Extreme Heat". There were only 4 of these made, I believe. The blue flame Charvel is a USA San Dimas model painted by Maruicio Luna. There were 25 of these made. Both are exceptionally built. There are a few subtle differences, but I love 'em both. So let's have some fun...Which one do you like better? Red or Blue?

      That's like choosing green or yellow m&m's, they're both the same.....................I like green ones

      That being said, I'd have to pick the blue. but both are hot as hell, congrats.

          Tough call but I'm leaning towards the red flame. Any difference in neck profiles?

            Johnny - No difference in the neck profiles at all that I can tell. The tuners are are a little different, though.

              Blue is my favorite color, but I like the red flames better.
              I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

                  If there's two things that Mike Learn does better than anyone else, it's flames and skulls. The red looks a little more 3d and 'real' to me. Both look great though.

                    I like that shade of blue a lot, but I agree with hellbat, the red looks more real.

                    I can't choose.

                      Blue, it sticks out more. Both of them are great looking though.
                      Two guitars are better than one.

                        Those are both awesome!!! I think I like the red a lil better.

                          Thanks for the posts, guys. Here's a side note about the Custom Shop "Extreme Heat" - It was originally a single Hum. I added the neck Hum and the mini toggle switch a few months ago. Notice that the bridge pickup ring is painted. The neck PU ring is not (yet...).

                            Are you from the Matrix and looking for Neo? J/K they both look great. In just 2 guitars you have a great collection.

                              This thread turned into a flame war.

                              Red looks better to me.
