Hi all - new user here.
I owned a number of US Charvels in the early 80s, and have recently regained interest in these guitars. I'm now in my late 40's - so I am one of those "older" new users! But on the bright side, I am old enough that I actually did go to the San Dimas location a number of times, met Joanne and Grover a few of those (as well as a couple celebs there), played a lot of originals, am responsible for hacking many of them (sorry - the crimes of a dissatisfied youth), and may have an interesting story now and then.
Mostly though, I'll be lurking, listening, and asking questions, especially about the new guitars, and what it could mean (could this all happen again? Can lightning strike twice?)
Glad to be here!

PS - I couldn't find the intro area, so just posted this here. Please move it and let me know if there's a regular intro place.
