[Force]

I like em.......................and now i like fucking around with the font

I don't like my chances getting hold of one to try out first though, local stores suck around here.

Anybody have a chance to take one for a test drive yet?

Does anyone know if we'll get a HSC or a Gig bag with these? Or is that what they mean under Accessories:None?

[Flatpicker]

If it follows the other Fender guitars in that price range it would be a gig bag.

[Grim]

Cool, but I'd still rather have a USA. I've been trying to score myself another SoCal lately but they seem to have become endangered. Kicking myself for not grabbing a slime green the first time around

[84sups]

I'll be getting a blue SoCal when they are released. Love the blue

[josefh]

Just talked with Chris Cannella about that.. there will be no cases or gigbags on the Pro mods...

[JediHalen]

First official videos..

[Prince Vultan]

Nice. Looks like they fixed the 12 fret dot spacing too.

[Neo Fender]

The new Pro Mods are now shown on Charvel's website: http://www.charvel.com/guitars/%3Fsection%3Dpromod

[ginsambo]

But lost the walnut plug. Damn that white 1H 1S is tasty though.

[G333]

Gearhounds has them posted with U.S. street pricing. I read on the Charvel site they would be available in June: http://www.gearhounds.com/charvel-2013.aspx

I'm leaning toward a SD HH and SD HS HT. Not sure on the colors yet.

why description says "recessed Floyd Rose® Original" when I found "Recessed Floyd Rose® Special"? Special is the shittiest floyd, made in china
