THE STORY OF CHARVEL
The birthplace of many legendary guitarists, Southern California is also home to one of the original innovators of high performance guitars—Charvel®. Charvel guitars are the very embodiment of high-performance tone machines, and discerning players who prize superior sound and feel have turned to the company's finely crafted guitars as their weapons of choice for more than 40 years. From metal masters including Warren DeMartini and Jake E Lee to instrumental fusion legends such as Allan Holdsworth and Shawn Lane to modern day virtuosos like Guthrie Govan and Angel Vivaldi, musicians worldwide have long relied on Charvel for exceptional guitar design.
High-end "hot-rodded" appointments considered extraordinary on lesser instruments are standard features on most Charvel guitars. These include compound-radius fingerboards, exceptionally hot pickups designed to send amps into screaming overdrive, Floyd Rose® bridge tremolo systems, customized electronics, heavy-duty hardware and highly original (even outlandish) textural and graphic finishes.
