Went on vacation to Orange County and stopped at the Chubtone shop to pickup this bitchin guitar. Met up with Matt over there and played through quite a few of their guitars, all felt great and the necks felt right at home. If you're in the market for a Charvel/Jackson style guitar I wouldn't look any further, their prices and quality can't be beat!!

Pictures are too big. Reduce them by 50% then re-upload. That's damned fantastic man. I'm usually not a fan of orange guitars, but I'm diggin that pearl finish. You went with the dual humbuckers too, very much my style. Congratulations man. Those guys have good prices.
 
Thank you, I'm not entirely sure how to resize the images, I used imgur and the photo uploader here said they were too big.

It's much more hazard orange in person where you can only see the pearl on certain light, but the camera brought the pearl out like crazy!
 
Awesome man! I hear nothing but great things about Curt and Matt's guitars.

You can resize them in imgur. You just type in the new dimensions. Lock proportions so it doesn't warp. Click save.

Just put a lower case L right before the .jpg. That will reduce it to 'Large'. You can use other letters to make it smaller. m for medium, s for small, and more.

Sweet guitar! My Chubtone (<---in my avatar) has #2 profile and it's the most comfortable profile for me ever. Just feels perfect.

What pickups did you get? I did not like the 59n in the neck on mine and tried quite a few swaps. Ended up with a Dimarzio PAF Master bridge pickup there and it's now one of my favorite neck tones.
 
Congrats, that's an awesome color. Matt and Curt are awesome to deal with and build amazing guitars. I'm having a hard time not smiling whenever I'm playing mine.

That worked, thanks!

I got a TB4 and SH2n, the JB can be a little too much at times but I think it works well in this guitar, the jazz is a great neck pickup as well. I may try a custom sometime soon I also have some dimarzios laying around!

Mine came with a Pegasus in the bridge and I liked it a lot. I tried an old Custom 5 as well and liked that a little more, they are pretty similar. But I'm trying to find a Dimarzio for the bridge because I like that neck pickup so much. The AT-1 and Breed were both not it (they had it surrounded tho). Got an Air Zone on the way.
 
Thanks everyone!!

I have a brand new dominion and liquifire set, might be a little more output than you want it sounds like, but I'll let you know how they sound in there! I had a Pegasus in a guitar before and it seemed really underpowered and too articulate for me.
 
I love my purple Chubtone with a DiMarzio Super D in the bridge. My favorite axe !!!
 
I had Curt install a double cream JB with an Alnico 8 mag in the bridge and a Jazz in neck. The A8 really tightened up the low end on the JB.
 
Orange with black hardware is tasty. Good choice.
