It is a new old stock Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas style 1 HH HT. It has a compound radius 12-16" neck, Seymour Duncan ’59 SH-1N (neck) and JB TB-4 (bridge) humbuckers, push pull volume pot for split coils, locking tuners and black hardware. They even did a quick tweak of the action and checked the intonation before I left. It's currently strung with 10's. I'll eventually restring it with 9's.

The wife went out early this morning and did her annual black Friday shopping. Once she returned she wanted to go back out a little later in the day to get some things she forgot and missed. I agreed to go if we could stop by the local music shop. So, we stopped in and made a lap through the store. I wasn't looking for anything in particular, but I always enjoy checking out their massive collection (they literally have over 1000 guitars on display). My wife saw a guitar tucked away in a rack with a sale paper slid in the strings. It was too good of a deal to pass up at 50% off.

That's a beautiful Charvel. With that pickup combination, coil splitting option, and tuning stability, it's the type of workhorse guitar you could play all night long and look good doing it.

Spent some quality time with it this weekend. Changed the strings to 9s, polished the frets, set the action, neck relief, set the pickup height, and checked intonation. The low E nut slot is a tad low after the string change, so I’ll eventually need to deal with it, but for now I have it shimmed with a couple slivers of index card. The nut is probably the one thing they cheaped out on. As best I can tell it is just black plastic. I’ll eventually swap it out for tusq or bone.
It’s plays and sounds great. I really like that the volume knob is moved down out of the way compared to my strats. I’m not frequently hitting it with my strum hand.
These have been on my radar for a few years. I’m glad I finally had an opportunity to pick one up.
