  • Help ID'ing Who Built a 2016 Charvel Custom

    Hello! I'm new to the forum, and I just purchased a Charvel Custom Shop from 2016. I'm wondering who built the instrument.

    The Neck Dress was done by BP, and RK did the Wiring, Assembly and Set-Up. Does anybody know who these builders are? Also - does Mike Shannon and Red Dave really work on every custom shop?

    Bump! Does anyone else have a Charvel custom that BP or RK built? Looking to see how these things are assembled.

      Hmm. I suppose I'll try calling FMI and see what they say.

          How are you liking the guitar? I'm on the wait list for one.

            If it's a true Custom Shop, it could be anyone if you don't have a cert or work order picking a builder it's probably nearly impossible to find out...

                  Hey Sheppard,

                  I really like it. Great QC on it. I tried one out at my local GC and the one I received was quite consistent with the one I tried out.
                  I'm not a DiMarzio guy, so I swapped the pickups out. Otherwise... It plays and sounds great. Comfy neck, very nice fretwork, nice fit n' finish overall. I think you'll be pleased!

                    I ended up buying one of the Richtone music custom charvels. And it was mostly done by SS except for neck dress which was done by BP. The guitar was done in February 2017.

                      My new Demartini Frenchie was a neck dress from BP and assembly, wiring and setup by RK as well.

                        SS would be Sean Silas
                        Popular is not the same as good
                        Rare is not the same as valuable
                        Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

                          Man! We need to know who this RK is!
                          Maybe I can find out at NAMM in January.

                            Hello all - thanks for the insights. I recently bought a Custom Jackson from Rainbow Guitars, and the work was mostly done by SS and JH. I saw above that Sean Silas is SS - thanks for solving that! As for JH, any ideas? They did the wiring.
