The future of Charvel Guitars is safe....

Uh................... surely it's a spoof but it's done so badly, so not funny, that it's disturbing and sad to see on the Charvel website.

After seeing the Phil Demmel video, and now this.....FMIC should fire someones ass for devaluing the company image and offending its customers good senses.

You would think with the image bashing 23 fret blunder that happened, the QC fail in addressing the blunder on several forums across the web...that the folks in charge of the Jackson/Charvel brand would make serious efforts to build its image and quality.
Fender would NEVER do this to their own brands or Guild, Gretch, EVH.
Did some idiot pull strings to get their trust fund kid in at FMIC for a College project on brand demolition?
If so. Fire them before its to late.
I like some of the new models they have brought out. Of course the quality is quickly making them pariah among serious players.
Now that Pablo is gone also (probably to the USA ESP shop) They need to pull out all the stops and build Mexico as the next big thing since Japan for ALL the Imports. Minus maybe the JS series.
They need that guy that made Guild a viable brand again. He made a great name that was lost on shitty products an amazing brand again after FMIC bought them.
Its time.
Why can we see this? But FMIC does not?

Maybe its just the overtime working on me. But that's how I feel right now. Gotta vent.

Think I'd prefer to listen to Hoogie Boogie Land by "Complete" then this rot!

Huh ????? Pablo is gone ? When did this happen ?

While I think this video is pretty funny and I love stuff that doesn't take itself too seriously, it's pretty weird that they would make a video with this dude and not some sweet stuff with Guthrie playing his new Charvels-maybe I didn't scroll back far enough though.

These Schecter wannabe Charvels (Scharvels?) are being marketed to a complete different demographic than the traditional models that the brand has always been known for...the kiddies who are attracted to these abominations probably think that video is awesome.

Wonder how the Scharvels have sold? I've never seen or heard anybody IRL (and VERY few online) talk about them, let alone own one. I'm guessing they were a fail.

[lepard]

I call them Chivels and specifically omit them from my eBay searches.

What's that I smell?
Charvette for the new millennium...




Wait a minute. I own a Desolation. And I like it!

That's absurd!

The Pro Mods are still better.

Don't misunderstand, my DS2 does not compare to my 86 Jackson. I don't mean that I am going to start a Desolation fan site. I am not saying that the world would be a better place if all other guitars disappeared.


But they are hot little monsters. Twenty years from now, it will probably be in a trash can somewhere because it is not a high quality piece. But it didn't cost $4k the way Jackson is quoting for the USA Soloist. I didn't buy it thinking it would replace anything. I bought to add to the family.
