Not actually from the 80’s (2016) but definitely got that vibe… Charvel USA Select San Dimas…


Great range of sounds. The Single Coils are HS-2s wired as single coils so clean they’re not the fullest but with gain they really work. Quality feels on a par with my Custom Shop Charvel for sure. 

Think I’m done GAS-wise for a while!

    I have one and it's a fantastic guitar. Punches well above it's weight in pounds and pence. Mine is the most stable guitar I've ever owned and simply never goes out of tune.

    Enjoy!!

    Si

    It is although bizarrely position 4 that you'd think would give you neck and middle actually gives you middle and the rearmost coil of the bridge bucker. Neck and Middle together aren't available. I feel a bit of soldering coming on because it feels like a miss......

    might be selling one with a rosewood board in the near future if that's of interest...

    My trading feedback

    is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?

    Too much gain... is just about enough \m/
