  1. The Japanese Charvels are awesome, especially the necks. Warmoth doesn't offer rolled fretboard edges, and that's one of the main reasons I love the MIJ Charvels.
  2. Sweet! I still have GAS for a white one.
  3. Thunderchild: Very Nice! Gonna whore out the new Charvel family pic in this thread:
  4. Can I get in on this? Charvel SoCal & MIJ/MIM Mutt:
  5. Same as '09 american strats but with a compoung radius. Strats must come with thin necks now then, because my SoCal's neck is 19.5mm @ the 1st fret, and 21mm at the 12th. Very similar in thickness to an Ibanez Wizard II or a Jem. Also they have a 1 11/16" nut width, while most strats are 1 5/8".
  6. Newer pic of mine, with my "Fender" shredder:
  7. Some hot guitars in this thread.
  8. Do your research buddy (Just a hint ... research is not limited to the internet) You're the one making crazy claims, the burden of proof falls to you. I could say I read that you're supposed to use the bar with it aimed at the strap button, but without evidence, it's BS. The fact is his design patent says nothing about string gauge, and that to me proves you wrong. I'm through with this, you just keep repeating yourself, and wasting my time.
  9. Do your research (I did) ... they were designed to be used with 9 -42s. Plain and simple fact. Many people have used many different gauges, but that does not alter the fact that they were designed specifically for 9 -42. Again, post one piece of documentation backing that up. The original manual is in that link, not one word about string gauge. I think you're full of it. Even reading through all the Patents on file delivers no "recommended string gauge", or that one was ever considered in the design. I'll beleive you if you can supply some type of evidence to back that up, but to say that 9-42s are the "strings the Floyd Rose was designed for" reeks of guitar shop BS.
  10. Actually, there IS. Genuine Floyd Rose floating trems were designed to use 9 - 42 strings. Other gauges can be used, but for the best performance, stability, intonation, and reliability, 9 -42 is the recommended string gauge. Show me anywhere in documentation that Floyd Rose has ever said this. Even vintage ads and instructions from the first trems never list a "recommended string guage". Their main user, EVH, used lighter string(9-38 or something). Based on your lack of knowledge of the single locking Floyd II from that other thread, you might want to do some research: http://www.vintagekramer.com/parts6.htm
