It doesn’t matter what Charvel you play. They all sound amazing when you play them! I have a USA made San Dimas 2 and it is an amazing guitar. I changed the electronics in it and I can get a great single coil sound by rolling off the volume to about 7. Charvel rocks!

@@Clapstain I had a tech do it at a guitar shop. He probably put in a 500k cap to retain treble on a humbucker when decreasing the volume. He also put in a concentric knob so that I now have a tone and volume pot in the same shaft. When reducing the volume on the JB and the 59, they really sound like single coils at about 7 on the volume. I can't say that coil tapping sounds as good.

You're awesome thanks so much. I recommend a Yamaha THR amp to anybody. If you by the X model, it may have all the gain in the world at your disposal but what's brilliant is that you don't have to use all of it. There are some great AC/DC style sounds in this amp as well as some more classic rock, lower gain style sounds. :)

After seeing the Ash model demoed by youI went with the okoume version with the maple fretboard and the Floyd. It was the only model I could find at the moment. I think it's the best guitar I've ever had. So versatile. So easy playing. Stringwise I used to play 10s but now tried 9s as this is what came on the guitar. Tone is about the same but playability is way better! I can see why Cameron is such a fan of the charvels. Thanks for your advice Cameron!

I have two MIM Charvels, no Americans. But I do have a couple of Jackson USA soloists to "sorta" compare them to. Just comparing quality of build, there is no way I can justify the price difference between the MIM and MIA guitars, I'm not quite sure how and why (from a business stand-point) Fender does this. I suppose there will always be the crowd who just wants and American Fender, Jackson, Charvel I get it, but dang a sometimes 1k-2.5k price difference depending upon model? No thanks, I'm not that patriotic. Since buying my first MIM Charvel, I have acquired 2 more MIM Jacksons....virtually the same quality. ?????? Why would I ever buy another 2-3K guitar? They are nice and there is a slight difference in feel....but not a 2k dollar difference. Even more so if you don't mind tinkering with them.

@@CameronCooper Initial impression wasnt great. Position 2 had no output and the wiring was a mess, but I did find the failed solder and fixed that. A bit embarassing on a Custom Shop built guitar. There's a lot more care to the finish, especially around the neck bolts. The setup is awesome. The Pro-mod was good but this is perfect. No choking or buzz anywhere. I found the Pro-mod HSS has some warble on sustained notes (mainly G string 12-16th fret). The Select HH doesnt have that issue and does genuinely seem to sustain a lot more (?brass block). The neck feels identical to me but the stainless frets do seem to make it feel a bit more "crisp". It's definitely not two and a half times better for two and a half times the cost but it is better. Just a shame the wiring looks like it was cobbled together by an amateur.

Hey, Cameron, I can plainly see you're a super strat/tele guy from all your videos. When you play other guitars (like a Les Paul or Ibanez) do you have any trouble adjusting? I recently got an Ibanez RG after years with strats, teles, Gibsons and other vintage style guitars and the Ibanez RG is just the weirdest guitar to get used to. Now I understand why so many shredders use headbands to silence the strings. There is frankly too much sustain on the Ibanez. The notes don't decay fast enough to play anything like Hendrix. I have a few go-to Hendrix songs and never noticed that problem with any other guitar. And a random thought: think of how strange Angus Young, Slash and James Hetfield would look playing a strat! I've seen Slash with a strat and it's just completely different. I've seen him with a BC Rich and he looks absurd... if that intro to Sweet Child o' Mine video was him playing that lick on a superstrat rather than a Les Paul, I bet it would not have been nearly as big of a hit and overall if Slash was famous for, say, a bright green superstrat, they might be very forgotten. Just weird to think about how guitar models make such an impact on how bands are perceived. Musicians know it for sure because they're all very wary of looking like glam metal now even though super strats are great guitars. Jack White is now playing an Eddie Van Halen guitar and people are like "wtf?" but really it's a perfect move for him at this point to break out of the character everyone knows him as. And the Wolfgang is overall pretty cool looking by any standards (except for that headstock); it has no real association with a genre that is mostly hated these days.

James Fielding That's fair enough, there are other Mexican Charvels that pretty much fit in the bill bar the one piece maple neck. But if you were buying now, you get a lot more guitar for your money if you go for a Mexican Charvel. The main differences with the US ones are that they have less features and for a higher price. In the case of the US made Style 2 you don't get the custom shop style contoured body, six-pack of sound or the thumbwheel truss rod adjuster. Just to name some differences. Just because it says Made in USA on the headstock you're expected to pay more, which is daft really. But all depends on whether you value where it's made. All I care about is if it's a great guitar or not.

I don't hold USA manufacturing up as any sacred cow, I just like the really basic design of the old USA and MIJ Charvels. To me they're a little more representative of the real old pre-pro stuff.

Glad I couldn't afford Jackson guitars now because I love my Charvels. funny how things change as one gets older. Mexico and Japan can crank out some nice stuff.

Back in the day... Jacksons were still built by Grover and you couldn't get one for under $1,000. Grover had bought Charvel from Wayne and sold those to the equivalent of Gibson's Epiphone prices. Not many teenagers could afford $1,000 back then and parents didn't want to shell out that kind of cash. That is how I ended up with Charvels. Love my Charvels though. I now also own a couple Jacksons as prices are much different since Fender purchased them and popularity has dropped off. Love those too. Not dying to have a Les Paul and might eventually someday purchase a Strat, but love my Jacksons and Charvels!
