Hi can someone tell me,is the USA made warren demartini sig model made in the custom shop?
 
As far as I understand any USA made Jackson or Charvels are pretty much made by the same people as the "Custom Shop".

I mean a "Master built" order guarentees you a guitar built for example by Mike Shannon but a USA made one you buy off the shelf could have had Mike Shannon involved somewhere in the process of making it.

Thank you .....
 
Yeah, I've asked again and again, various people over there. At least if it says Charvel on the headstock, there's no distinction between USA and custom shop. Jackson seems to have different levels (select, custom select, masterbuilt), but for Charvel, it apparently all is done by the "masterbuilt" crew.
 
The way I understand it, the 08/09 USA Charvels were made here but more of a production line guitar. The new USA selects are made on the same line as the Jackson selects, with different machines for each neck profile. Certain runs of USA guitars however have all been made in the custom shop, like the 94-96 Charvel SD series(with the funky headstock) and the pointy reissues from 2005-2007. I have 2 pointy reissues and they are as good as the 2 customs I've had.
I would think the USA WDM sig is a custom shop build.
 
^ forgot about the USA Select Charvels. Those probably are different from the Signature/limited run/custom order stuff they do.
