New Charvel Pro-Mod Series

I'm kind of disappointed that they did direct mount pickups on the 2H.

Probably gonna be the ONLY way we can tell the difference between MIJ and USA when they hit the ebay used market.

Extremely easy fix.

With all the variations they have done with the USA and now Japanese models it would be nice to have at least one H/S, that clorine wild card would have been a good canidate.

I agree. That's why I spent $28 on a new pickguard.

No complaints here.

Agreed. Kinda nit-picky.

So, same price as the US Pro Mods?

Not specifying MIJ should = losing one's license!!! Although, once they are in the hands of the general public, that's when it's going to get hairy.

Well, check out the hi-rez pics above: Right under the Charvel logo it very clearly says Made in Japan. So that's good.

Kinda digging the white SD1. Anyone know if that's a pearl white or plain? Hard to tell from the pic, with a fair bit of pixel-ation from white on white background.

That'd look even better with a rosewood board and a set of zebras. ...Hmmm.

$200 cheaper and includes a hard shell case

[fullmetalguitar]

Well I guess they're going to stick with the Floyd being the only bridge option. Too bad for the few of us that prefer something else.

[Joe_Steeler]

I can't get over how unremarkable these are. POS

On top of that, in the worst economic crisis of our time FMIC sends bread & butter to freaking Japan. How many lost jobs at Corona?
WTF knows.
But the profit margin sure looks better!! somebody is stroking somebody at Scottsdale!! Good job!

Even more, further deface the Charvel name by "Crafting" these POS in Japan, have I gone back in time in some sort of time machine?
Haven't we gone through this before and soon thereafter Charvel dissapeared.

How, un-imaginative. How, predictable. How, bland. Totally anti-climactic.

The
wild card and the so-cal white must be on my room one day. Dammed 2 more guitars I can't let go
