Charvel alternatives?

[griff10672]

Build a Warmoth ...... and pick any and every part on it ........

The Warmoth strat body isn’t like Charvel at all, the edge contours and even the size/shape are wrong, and the necks aren’t even close… KNE or Musikraft if you roll your own, or Chubtone IF they’re currently accepting new orders.

Build times for any custom shop are out there. Chubtone can easily make that for you and it would be nice. So can Luxxtone.

My ESP MII fits the bill. Best super Strat I’ve ever owned.

View attachment 139198View attachment 139201View attachment 139204I have this sonic blue warmoth that was built to look like a charvel custom shop. Great guitar. Neck was sanded down to be more charvel profile. It was much thicker before. Split coil and kill switch. I am thinking of selling it actually.

Man that thing is a beauty! Im a sucker for the sonic blue look. Not crazy about floyds anymore though but that fiddle is good for a few whistles and stopped traffic for sure.

Nash s81 is a pretty close alternative, although a pricey one.

Can anyone tell me the general starting price for a chubtone? Didn't see prices listed for sold guitars on the website. Just wondering where they fall in terms of costs of Charvel custom shop etc

Just remembered this guy https://www.meanstreetguitars.com/meanstreetmodels . Not sure if there were issues with him or not but looks like he had a few models very close to what you want. But at that rate, i'd probably just go with chubtone.
