6th Batch Custom Colors

[RR666]

The Sea Sick Green is my favorite finish yet, they hav'nt put out one finish that i dont like.

[P I K A]

maybe they are just going to offer 2 colors each time instead of one and not put out another guitar.

Whoa nailed that one!!!!!! From the what will replace the tele thread hahahahaha.
I like the white so cal too.

[P I K A]

Wonder if its going to hurt the Adrian Smith sales?

I hope when I get a job I can still find either of the white ones that have come out. Or both.

It would be interesting to see a Wildcard that was painted half black and half white like a Michael Schenker V.

Bionic- I'm still waiting on that star body.

We did that half white/black San Dimas for Jon Levin from Dokken. It's killer looking.

Speaking of artists playing Charvels - when are you going to get these into the hands of some more guys? Why are John 5 and Jim Root playing Fenders?

Also... a metallic burgundy (Kandy Burgy) Socal would be so choice...

Good question... in the case of the guys you mentioned, it's simple... they are Fender fans. Which is what you want from an artist...they play what they truly love.

There is more Artist news to come this year... Nothing I can say at the moment as it would be improper...

Hmmm. If the White SoCals are hot sellers, I predict a ton of EVH clones hitting Ebay soon - or that ReliableFender douche will list his bodies for $1200 each

However, if they are selling like hotcakes, changing the default SoCal to White instead of Black will do two things - 1) satisfy market demands and 2) completely eliminate the ability of people to hoarde them for massive profit on resale.

It'd be a Win-Win.

Oh, I'm not going to let you get away with that one - especially with Jim Root having played a Model series Charvel for years, and that black Charvel strathead with EMGs.

Well, then that make's his $650 Adrian Smith body a steal!

That would be cool - base San Dimas black, base Socal white - I like it. And then, after a couple months - WILDCARD!!! - base San Dimas white, base Socal black!

And then, after a couple months - WILDCARD!!! - base San Dimas white, base Socal black!

I'm sure they'll continue to bring us girl-drink-colored wildcard guitars for months to come.

My prediction: I bet the next one is trans blue... Like Blue Curacao. Kandy Drunken Date Rape Blue.

You're welcome, Mike!

Kandy Drunken Date Rape Blue.

Don't forget about that demartini he has!

I love the white too, and the green isn't bad. It reminds me of the guitars in a Charvel catalogs from the mid 80's!

To my dismay, while in Sam Ash in NJ, I saw what looked like my Candy Blue SD1 sitting on a stand. When I walked up to it, it turned out to be a Mexican Strat! In my limited Candy Blue! Are the Charvel limited issue colors being used on current Strats?

[Newc]

More Fender nonsense - stealing from better brands

Probably a MexiStrat neck on a Style 1 body. Which means they put the Charvel neck on a MexiStrat body like a 'tard
