A direct line back to where it all started”: Charvel returns to California with new USA-made Neo-Classic Superstrats

[Racerxrated]

They're on the right track w these models but still miss the mark. White pickups/rings and softshell case for that amount of money isn't cutting it for me. If I'm looking to spend $2,799 I'd rather save a little more rubles and go for a Luxxtone.

Cream pickups/rings, option for hardtail, vintage brass tremelo bridge or OFR. Basic old school solid colors w hardshell case and I'm in.

There is a HT option....string through the body. Not vintage brass unfortunately. But, the pricing is about where it should be. When Indonesian ESPs are 1899, I'd expect USA Charvels to be 1k more.

Ugh... stark white pickup rings, plain maple necks and boring primary color bodies. If they'd offer a roasted maple w/double cream plastics I'd slap down my credit card tonight. THIS is what I want, but I don't want to pay $5,000 Custom Shop prices.
