Thanks... bought one lol

If anyone is on the fence about picking one of these up, I'd say go for it. I held out for a long time because I figured it would feel like junk compared to say the Charvel EVH Art Series guitars.

Finally broke down, and now is one of my favorite cheap guitars of all time (no fret edge problems on mine, though I've heard they're not all consistent).

I agree... for the price it was a no brainer for me but here is an even better deal. $598.00 with Gator HS Case

Got my guitar via UPS today I don't usually buy Mexican made but this one is pretty sweet

How do these sound? Gig worthy?

I expected to get a Mexican made strat made to look like an EVH guitar. It does have some of that flavor but in a good way.

I am happy with my purchase. I went the extra mile and bought an EVH hard case for the Striped Series from Music Zoo as well. I am going to be keeping this guitar.

The fit and finish is exceptional compared to other models at the $900 MSRP range. The trem is very stable and the guitar was IN TUNE when I took it out of the factory sealed box. That was a shocker to me. All logic would say that I would have to screw with it straight out of the box. Maybe this was a freak coincidence. It is not a true floating trem (can't pull up). The neck feels great and the frets are dressed great. No sharp edges and no buzziness. It has an Alnico 5 humbucker that actually sounds pretty good for a stock pickup on a cheap guitar. It's not noisy or microphonic.

It's not a $2000 guitar for cheap but I am happy with it and it's been fun to play so far.

Cool...thanks for the info. I'm close to jumping on this once another guitar sells. I have a guy there that will hold the price for me whenever I call. I'm not big on expensive high end guitars...most of my gig guitars are under a grand.

There is another post on here about the Charvel San Dimas. I think this guitar looks a lot like one of those, don't you think?

$499.00 now
Dang thats cheap.

 

[tlingen]

Thanks for this heads up! I ordered mine.

 

[splawner]

Thanks for the heads up... lots of good prices on there site

UPS dropped mine off today too and I'm impressed with neck as it has a better setup (frets, fingerboard edges) than my USA Charvel which I love.

This will be a fun edition to my guitar collection and for the price it's tough to beat!!

 

[SkyhighRocks]

I'll be ordering one soon...hopefully by next week.

Looks like a great deal. Really close to pulling the trigger but the pickup config is kind of boring. I like the switching options and Duncan pickups on the new Charvels, probably worth the extra dough over this.

That site was selling a white, 2 humbucker Charvel for almost the exact same price, they sold out of them pretty fast

It probably will not be on sale next week.

Does anyone know if the Floyd's are blocked on this EVH. It looks like the Floyd is not against the body in the pics I've seen.

It is. You can't pull it back.

 

[Mailman1971]

Damn good deal. They are 'on sale' for $809 at sweetwater. How they pushing them out so cheap?
Might have to grab one myself. Just out of principle.
