Charvel Desolation ad in new Guitar World!

[Wild Wally]

Just got the September issue of Guitar World and there is a full page ad for Charvel "Desolation" model showing just the headstock (a 3+3) and a link to www.charvel.com/desolation, but the link just gives you their "this page has moved" dead llink. Any ideas what it is??

I'm curious!

Now you've got to wait for somebody else to get the magazine before it can be discussed...

It kinda reminded me of their refinement by Charvel headstocks from their Japan only Les Paul shaped guitar.

here's a pic, about the best i could get without a flash:

Interesting. Thanks for posting the pic!

Hmmm...

Looks like they might be trying their hand at another Les Paul type shape ???

That inlay on the 1st fret looks pretty cool.

[Jack Napalm]

Surfcaster maybe?

No locking nut so this thing must not have a Floyd!

Would have been cool: a single cutaway with a Floyd à la EBMM Axis.

Summer NAMM is around the corner, so we'll know soon.

If the did another surfcaster I would think the original headstock would be used.

I thought that as well but there is one on the Drum City/Guitar Land site that looks like this headstock.

Thanks for the pic, Wally! This must be the big thing they were hinting at. Hopefully we'll know the full story in a couple days when NAMM gets going. I was kinda hoping there might be something cool brewing from the USA side, but a high quality import would be fine. They can make some amazing stuff in that factory, as we all know.
