08/09 Charvels; and 86 Jackson.
 
1994 USA Hamer Centaura. Purchased from Ishibashi in September for half the price if I bought in the USA. Guitar was in immaculate condition! One of my best scores.

I bought a 1991 Iridescent Centaura brand new; it was my main guitar for 20 yrs. Don't know why in the hell I sold it...I knew every ding/scratch/dent lol.
 
Guys, I said AFFORDABLE boutique level superstrats lol ya'll over here posting Suhrs and Andersons lol
 
08/09 Charvels are 2K. Far less than a Suhr or TA
I had a 2009 green USA Charvel I sold a little over a year ago to have $$$ to put towards the home buying process. The house fell through and I sold my beloved Charvel and Budda fullstack for a big loss just to get the $$$ quick. I miss that guitar.
 
Yeah chubtone will run you about 2k. Charvel is always a solid choice in my opinion but there are some specs I don't jive with. I love my Dk24 but I wish it had ss frets
 
Super Strat type guitars are my favorite guitars! These guitars are no longer made, but can be found used for around $2K or less. I'm not sure about the price as the market fluctuates. I'm interested in buying a Charvel 2HH Floyd Rose super Strat guitar to round out the hotrodded Strat guitar collection. Here's what I have:
1990 Hamer USA Chapparal Elite 90
1994 Hamer Diablo II
1998 Fender Floyd Rose Classic Strat
1987 Fender Japan Contemporary Strat

It's a tie between the 86 and the Purple SoCal. Both have nice tone, resonant and are easily the best playing guitars I've ever put my hands on. The other two are also very good; but take a back seat to the 86 and SoCal.
 
That is insanely hot :yes:

Splawn guitars rarely ever pop up used. Either they don't turn a bunch out or people love them.

I really need another quick rod. Their shop is literally 5-10 minutes away. I've been thinking about another one for quite awhile. I should have an Atla soon so I'm sure that will satisfy me for a bit
