Charvels in my Backyard!

[Chuckracer]

So imagine my suprise as I go to the local Mom and Pop store (ok, the only store around) looking for guitar boxes. They are a Jackson dealer, but all they've ever had were a couple of imports. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but I digress.
What to my weary eyes should appear, but Charvels in stock!!

Two EVH's: One white, one yellow
A white maple board two hum floyd
A black ebony board two hum floyd.
A blue (bitchen blue) ebony board HSS v-trem
And I forgot what the last one was...I was in a hurry. Late for dialysis. I still took a moment and played the white two hum...wonderful! Had the cast plate on it, too.

I can see a new Charvel in my future!

Re: Charvels in my Backyard!

Did you search Watertown, or Croghan?
Watertown is the nearest "city" with the guitar store and where I go three times a week for dialysis.
Croghan is where I live. Right at the base of the Adirondack Mountains.

I'm at the edge of civilization here.

I poke fun at it, but after 15 years in Phoenix, I love it up here!

I searched for Croghan . Got a pic of a Candy Store [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] . I got a map also -- damn you are virtually in Canada !!
That's a long motorcycle journey for me on my next visit to New York [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Re: Charvels in my Backyard!

I just googled Crogham. It's not even a town it's a village. It does look nice, out of the rat race. I have been to big stores here in L.A. that don't even have a USA J/C product, so I think it's a big deal that where you live has 4 or more.

Re: Charvels in my Backyard!

Yep, the Croghan Candy store. That's our claim to fame. Well, that and Croghan Blogona.
Main Street is about 2/10's of a mile long, and it's back to wilderness. I live about 4 miles outside of town, and drive by that Candy Store every day.

It's funny up here...if you haven't spent your entire life here, you are "from away. Even my folks, who were born and brought up here, but moved away for many years are considerd "from away"!

"...out of the rat race." Yeah, understatment of the month!
