The 7th batch Charvel's arrived yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised by the colors. We did a cheesy little commercial style video of them with one of the tunes from my instrumental CD as the sound track.

We are normally the first store in the country to receive these guitars since we're 20 minutes away from Charvel's factory so we like to let everyone see what they look like outside of the Charvels factory photos.

This video is starring Scott Digital Jams new Trans Gold Kandy HSS San Dimas in one of the lead roles. She's a beauty Scott and you already know how she's going to play. She will be coming to see you soon. Anyone else dig them, give me a call or PM me for more information.

 
:rawk:


Awesome!! Now quit fucking around and release your CD already. The mix is fine ;)
 
cool, thanks for the vid. it's great to see real shots of them vs the typical stock photo style pics Charvel uses that never does them any justice.

what's the story with the 1 hum, brass trem pre-pro on the bottom left of all the new ones on the wall?

It's a 1980 that I bought in a pawn shop in LA for $300 back in 1986. I watched it hang on that pawn shop wall for about a year without being sold. This was in that era when nobody wanted strat head Charvels. It was all about the newer pointy head stocks. One day I went into the pawn shop with $300 and bought it as a back up. I've sold it 3 or 4 different times to friends and then gotten it back. One time I sold it to a buddy and went to see him play at Gazzari's the next weekend and I was floored at how great that guitar sounded listening to it from the crowd. It wasn't a case where the guitar was in better hands either because the guy was a student of mine.

After that gig I hounded him and made him swear on his life if he ever sold it it would be back to me. Then he was getting married and we all know the rest of that story. :rock:

Spoke with Curt yesterday and he clued me in that making that guitar into a 5 way will be no problem.......way ahead of you bro bro :thumbsup:

The guitar looks fantastic Curt and after looking at the cost of the new Ibanez stuff these are a steal!!!! The body wood looks better than I thought as well, good to see that the Fender dorks are staying away from the bad seed side of the factory :lol: :LOL:

Enough about the guitar, the song flat out rips so get your ass in gear and get that shit out!


Call ya in a few hours :thumbsup:
 
I found a guy on another forum that is going to help me with the artwork. His stuff looks killer. I'm going to have to re-record to make the level of the music up to the artwork :lol: :LOL:
 
Love it!!!

Hey Curt, how much higher are the HSS San Dimas guitars price wise from the two humbucker style?
 
:rock: Chubtone I love the tune guy! Let me know when you release the disc. Gotta have one. :yes: Congrats to Scott on the KILLER HSS Charvie. WOW! Will there be any other color choices in the near future with the HSS options? Also how about a rosewood neck in the HSS options? You guys are killing me ...I buy a Wizard it got here yesterday and now it's CHARVEL TIME! :lol: :LOL:
 
Just got off the phone with Curt and the fiddle is paid for, such a nice boy and as my wife stated rather cute :yes:

Thinking of selling one of my GMWs to fund another So-Cal and beat the crap out of it and make it h/s :yes:

Thanks Hollywood! What a coincidence, I'd personally like a Fiesta Red single hum with a maple neck. I can do a quick swap for you. Put the rosewood on the H-S-S for you and the maple on the Fiesta Red for me. :rock:
 
oooh, you were right...that trans gold one is gorgeous :thumbsup:

I'm jealous

You would have to change all the hardware and the nut and tuners so the black and chrome would stay intact/uniform huh? Very interesting thought there. :yes: I would like to know if any future colors are coming in HSS if ya know. Hey, what colors are left in batches already out? say single humbuckers style ? Any others with a rosewood neck before?

Yes, change the hardware and make sure they are both still set up correctly. That's no problem. None of us ever know what the future colors are until about 2-4 weeks before they are released. They do new colors every 3 months and the old colors are discontinued at that time. This is the very first H-S-S guitar, and the very first single hum guitar, and the very first one to have a rosewood neck so they changed some stuff up on this batch
 
I am thinking on this idea of yours. :yes: I really loved the polar white 2 humbucker models that came out and was supposed to get one but the deal fell through. I really loved that one. maple neck be damned. :thumbsup:
