Members twisty571 Posted January 7, 2013 Members Share Posted January 7, 2013 I was really missing mine but found a Fender to fill it's spot and amazingly enough I like the Fender neck better. I did like the Dimarzio pups better in my So-Cal so I think this will get a Tone Zone soon. It's a shame they quit making the Charvels and these MIA Floyd Strats.

My San Dimas has the thinnest neck in my collection, but it's also made of quartersawn maple, which, in my mind, makes all the difference. I'm real, real picky about setup, and the neck on mine hasn't moved since the initial tweaks two years ago. It's easy to think that quartersawn won't make that much of a difference in stability, but when a Charvel holds its relief better than a 50s profile Gibson, you start to reconsider.

Also, San Dimas Style 2 for the win. Mine: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rg505bk Posted January 8, 2013 Members Share Posted January 8, 2013 The truss rod adjustment isn't really _that_ much more of a hassle with the Charvel style neck. Takes about five minutes to do the adjustment, sure it's not as easy as on a "normal" truss-rod. You don't have to remove the strings either. Just stick something under the floyd so that the strings are slacked, unscrew the neck and adjust the truss-rod, put the neck back on and remove whatever you have stuck underneath the floyd and you're set.
