The $1000 up charge on that neck profile applies to other retailers, not to the Music Zoo and I agree it's ridiculous, but it seems they have some kind of exclusivity on that neck profile with the Custom Shop for some reason...

Steve

Not the case at all anymore. They have exclusivity on someone else ordering a neck with the "Music Zoo neck profile" by name.
 
Oh and congrats Steve! That thing looks bitchin'. The Wildwest ones slightly miss the mark with their matching headstocks IMO. So few of the originals had that. I think Tommy from The Music Zoo and some other guy that is a dealer are the only ones who really "get" what "Charvel" means.

Oh yeah! I forgot you told me that… Man... I WISH I could get them to make me a replacement neck just like the one on my Jack Daniels guitar for my Legacy Star - I love that guitar, but wish it had "my" neck profile…

Thanks man! - yeah, it is you and The Music Zoo that are doing Charvel "right"...

I don't have the Nitro Relic yet, but to be honest, this is all I've been playing lately:

Curt, I gotta tell ya - I have found the ULTIMATE PAF clones from OX4 pickups in UK. That is what is in this R9 now and I have to tell you, I want to replace all the pickups in my guitar with these. They are low output PAF clones, but for some reason, there is NOTHING missing when you want the gainer sounds out of my amp. I'm absolutely blown away by these pickups and as a guy who loves low output pickups like you do, you have GOT to try them. As you know, I've been really stuck on the higher output Super Ds for some time now, but these pickups sound unbelievable. So much clarity and I don't feel like I'm struggling for more sustain with my amp, even though these pickups are 50% or more lower output than the Super Ds. I get everything from early Zep to 80s hard rock with this guitar and these pickups and I didn't like the higher gain Bare Knuckle Rebel Yells that were in it when I got it…
