Charvel Custom Shop San Dimas

[Unknownrash]

Who's got one of these? I'm gassing hard for one. I want to get one but am totally leery of buying one without playing one. Plus I have no idea what this Music Zoo store is like.

I've never played one, but I have ordered from the Music Zoo before (one SG and one Les Paul). They are a great shop, and I've never had any issues with my orders.

Warmoth? I thought about going that route too but am afraid I would screw it up!

What I have heard as well, solid shop to work with.

If you want Charvel go with Musikraft. It's possibly the most resonant/acoustically loud guitar I've ever played...

I thought that was yours...

LOL!
Funny you should say that... There was one on MusicZoo that I based mine off of. It was Swamp Ash in the same oil finish. Mine looks the same except it has black hardware and a neck single coil.. .

I really wished I hadn't looked at the Custom Shop Charvels on that site.

CURSE YOU, ECONOMIC SLOWDOWN!!!!!!

I have one of those guitars. I bought it used not thru Music Zoo. Its an awesome guitar. Mine has a hot rails in the neck as well. My opinion is worth squat tho b/c I love Charvels. But they are great guiitars. Havent known anyone to complain about MUsic Zoo either.

Music Zoo have quite a few special order Charvels built to their specs, even a relic'd series at the moment. Their run of guitars is cool as they are single HB, whereas production Charvel at the moment are twin HB.
The new necks are cool and they are not badly made for the price. Music Zoo's finishes are unique and they have a lot of loyal customers and you could do a lot worse than to buy from them.
I like these runs of Charvels through them, I'd drop the hammer on one if you're not sure, because new Charvels are hardly shipping at the moment, due to production of the world altering EVH Wolfgang guitar.. !!
Actually if Charvels are what you like, The Warren DeMartini models, although more pricey, have a killer pickup, the SD RTM and great necks.Just don't look for a production French graphic any time soon.
