Whats the deal with the Charvel CHS series?

I hate it when sites can't get Randy's name right.

I see a lot of people complaining about pickguards for charvels and whatnot. Not sure what you mean by it not fitting. If you're talking about the holes lining up... No big deal, the pickguard itself will cover the original filled-in holes. If you're talking about the neck area or the tremolo area, well, that's what a dremel tool is for.

And unlike others, I really have no problem with that headstock. Though, there are a couple of Charvel headstocks that I don't care for.

Hi Tekky, I only meant that it was challenging finding a pickguard for a dinky shaped body like on the CHS or Performer series. Strat shape, obviously no issue. Thanks Spencer for the link. That will help in the future.

I have a 95CHS ( bass ), and you all are right, just like the Charvettes, the lower rung on the totem pole, the neck from the older "modelSeries" WONT fit on it cause the body is cut differently, ( I wanted to maple-neck it ), stupid t-rod in the heel, cheaper bridge, knobs are VVT instead of VBT like my model2's...however it does play perfectly fine. Comparing that neck to my Jap Models necks is a joke. I sometimes think that the pickups don't have the same specs under those covers, cause the output is lower ( yep the string height to pickup top is similar to my "models" )

I'm not bitching about it...why?

I paid 110.00 for it in very clean condition with a bag, and IT IS worth every penny
