    The gearhounds description is incorrect. According to the Charvel website and an email I was sent by FMIC: Bridge: Recessed Floyd Rose® FRT-O2000 Double Locking 2-Point Tremolo

        Wow, no non-recessed floyd, 1 Hum model san dimas models. If they make that, I will try one of those out.

            On the Pro Mod homepage of the Charvel website they say it's an Original. On the Spec's page they list it as a Special. I think that's a mistake where someone got lazy and did a cut and paste job. If you go to page 4 of this thread, I posted the contents of an email containing the official specs from a rep at FMIC.

              Hmmmmm :think: ......SD pups and a recessed Floyd...I already have a Japanese So Cal that I love but these two features may make it worth picking up a MIM one. Plus the new colors are pretty cool too. I can feel the GAS starting!

                  Really mixed feelings on these. Between the recessed trem and the pricing, I can't see ever having any interest in them. Why would anyone want a Made in Mexico model when they can pick up a used USA or Japanese(with a case) model for less ? I feel like Tom Hanks in the movie "Big" where he's going "I don't get it".

                  One positive thing though, between the recessed trem and Charvel logo with no "Made in Country", at least these things won't be easy to take apart and atempt to build fake USA's out of.

                    • MIM for cheaper labor rates? Does that equal a cheaper price?
                      I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

                      • $899.99.

                        Not bad for what you are getting. If you get one with a floyd.

                        $799.99 w/o floyd. Not bad either.

                        Good wood, real SD or Dimarzio pickups (not Duncan Designed), and locking tuners.

                        • those are cool. but I want a one-hum.

                          I will await a one pickup wild card run.

                          the snow white san dimas is killer though.

                          • I have seen them. The sacred frets dots are correctly spaced.

                            Anyone bought one yet?

                            • Waiting on a HT I ordered at the beginning of the month will report when I finally get it. Think I'll get an SD1 - just not sure on the color.
