New EVH Charvels

Re: New EVH Charvels

This is a bizarre way to promote a guitar, but I guess
EVH can do whatever he wants.

Re: New EVH Charvels

Those are sweet fiddles! I am not a big enough VH fan to justify over $5k for one of those. It is a great idea. Especially since he actually plays them in a show. Very cool. It will be fun to see how high these go.

You could probably warmoth one identical to that, for only about $800.

Looks like Eddiethedrunk's bids were cancelled. I wouldn't be surprised to see major goofball bogus bids such as that one in the last few minutes of the auction.

"Bidders must have a minimum of 25 Feedback ratings in order to take part in this auction"

Should cut down on the bogus bids from eddiethedrunk and valleriepounder etc.

Funny you have to have 25 feedbacks to bid but can be a 0 feedback seller [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: New EVH Charvels

I'm really surprised about the basswood body, I would have thought it would have been alder or soft maple. The Fender custom shop uses basswood on some of it's bodies, though. I guess that's where it came from. I have a friend who's got a $2600 Custom shop sparkle tele that's made out of basswood. At first I though, WTF?

Well, I just bid $6000 on the black & white one and quickly went down in flames. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: New EVH Charvels

Although many have figured tops, I believe the Peavey Wolfgangs come standard with basswood bodies. It was probably EVH's preference, and spec'd by the man himself.

I don't know what his Charvel or Kramer body was made of, but the Music Man Axis was Basswood with a maple cap, and as you say, the Wolfgang is Basswood as well. Obviously Eddie's choice.

I was thinking the same thing.

Does anyone know what radius the fretboard is?

Re: New EVH Charvels

The neck plate looks cool. My wife would cut my dick off and feed it to the dog if I won one of these.

Re: New EVH Charvels

For your (and the dog's) sake, I'm hoping either the wife doesn't have access to the JCF or you don't have access to that kinda cash. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: New EVH Charvels

Kind of funny how the bidding seems to be going in tandem between the two guitars. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]opcorn:

I'd guess that - in the end - the B&Y goes for several grand more, though.

Re: New EVH Charvels

Hmph. Seems the "popcorn" graemlin ain't working for me.
