5th batch pics

I'd have liked the red on a sd1. the red socal looks a lot like a Model 3 with a Warmoth neck. not crazy about that color with a pickguard. The yellow is badass.

White tele looks awesome , i wish they did the SD1 like that instead of the chrome and creme

Black hardware on white should be a second base colour or they should alternate the base colour between black and white every 6 months.

In general, I like the introduction of the solid 'non-metallic' colours. Ibanez and BC Rich- watch out!

It's tempting to stick on some of the fancy transfers that are available for a customised look. The solid colours, I believe, support the addition of transfers better.

Nice choices on the colors for this batch. I'm digging the yellow a lot.

I wish the yellow was on the So Cal, would be cool with the balck pickguard. The video said 'last batch' for the teles.

Not too inspiring this time around...Red SoCal looks good though!

[VitaminG]

wow, I may be turned around on the teles now! That white one is sexy as...

Yellow is awesome.

And red w/ black p/g is Brad Gillisy goodness

I will have a Yellow SD1.

[Joelski]

Need to have a yellow one!

[skorb]

yeah not sure where these choices came from, doing nothing for me, after some amazing ones in prior batches.

glad the Tele is going away, gotta do that one right or not at all, and it's really not so much a Charvel design, at least one that would move out the stores.

Out with the Tele, and in with the Dinky!

Or a Star, I think bringing that shape back, especially in white or taxi yellow, would kick ass.

Oh and I like the yellow SD1.

Jackson does the Dinky, regardless of Charvel's past involvement.

I don't see a production Star. They did an import version once, but since these are made on the Fender cutters, I don't see them changing out the templates for Stars every 3 months. It's counter-productive.

[Mr.Shreddy]

Very true, so maybe a variation of a strat shape?

they did a production US Star a few years back, with a pointy headstock. Joe has/had one
