Members maltomario Posted August 22, 2011 Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 was brand new in box, pretty good deal for $497 + tax on clearance. I personally don't really dig this color but my wife loved it.. and you gots ta make the womenz happy back is actually opaque.. smokey brown almost black color. neck feels like a different carve than the usa charvels i own.. and the neck isn't as smooth. will take some steel wool and more tru oil to it soon to fix that up.

Members K3Fallout Posted August 22, 2011 Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 Why am I more impressed by your stack of guitar strings than the guitar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members maltomario Posted August 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 Why am I more impressed by your stack of guitar strings than the guitar? thats not even all of them.. i have another 60 sets in my storage area.. lol. I figure I must have stockpile of at least 170+ sets. Waiting for D'addario to have that '59 LP burst in their players points catalog.. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members maltomario Posted August 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 Feel free to send some my way, I'm too stingy to keep a stash of strings. I can promise you I paid far less than normal retail price.. I bought all they had at guitar center when they rung up $6 on clearance for a 10pack of EXL110's. Now that I'm no longer gigging, these will last me almost a lifetime.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members genesis3 Posted August 22, 2011 Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 now there's a guitar with a rare combo of looks, tone and a neck with NO brakes to impede playing whatever u want ala most teles , strats, and especially LP's with their cramped fret spacing up high, stiff action, overly chunky neck, clunky heel and in most cases, a combo of all those! I had a light aqua colored USA San Dimas that ruled but wasn't as fancy as that one...If those are SD Distortion's in the bridge , they are the best pickups I've ever heard...nice!

Members Deadbeat Son Posted August 22, 2011 Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 HNGD! I really need to try one of these new Charvels. I had a couple from the Model series and loved them, but haven't tried any since the brand was resurrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members maltomario Posted August 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 In store only at Sam Ash... yep.. though some guys mentioned getting lucky and having other dealers price match... YMMV As luck would have it I was vacationing in long island ny.. took my boy to the bronx zoo.. my hotel was quite literally next door to sam ash in carle place ny. that store didn't have stock but the other closest sam ash did have it in stock. So after the zoo trip on way back to hotel I popped in, and snatched it up. It was not tagged at clearance price and none of the employees knew it was priced that low until it was rung up at register. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members maltomario Posted August 22, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 That's nice! I really dig that LP all access job on the wall back there! yeah thanks.,. that is one of my 2 favorite guitars in my entire collection. put alot of hours on that axcess and it has made me lots of money. i snagged that one from MF when they had a ridiculous sale going on the axcess models..

Members twisty571 Posted August 22, 2011 Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 Nice man,I stumbled on a new black So-Cal for $550 and thought I got a good deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Steadfastly Posted August 22, 2011 Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 You can always repaint it and get those deep grass stains off of the front of the guitar. :)The rest of it is quite nice, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members shadesofcraig Posted August 22, 2011 Members Share Posted August 22, 2011 That is freaking gorgeous even though I am not a big fan of green, but I would definitely of picked that up for that price... Great deal, congrats... Why am I more impressed by your stack of guitar strings than the guitar? Dam if your impressed with that you should see my string box. With 25 guitars I have like 4 cases of strings. I use like 4 different gauges depending on the guitar and if it has a tremolo or not. So I keep a lot of strings on hand...
