    Re: SO WHAT ABOUT GMW?????

    I haven't touched any of the charvies but I have a GMW Jake and it's hard to imagine the Charvels being any better quality. Even if there the same, the GMW is cheaper and available all the time! (no waiting for limited editions).

    Then again, maybe having a real Charvel decal on your neck is worth the extra 3 to 5 hundred! [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

        I did play 2 GMW Empires at Neal's house and they had the lowest action and straightest necks I have played on any guitar. Also, GMW's have machine made necks while the Empires have the hand carved necks like the Moser Custom Shop stuff.
        <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Are you sure about this? I was told by Lee a while back that the Empire necks were CNC'd, as are the bodies and necks for their Brian May models made in conjunction with RS Guitars.

        Not that it matters one way or the other to me, CNC or pin routers. Just a point of clarification.

        I wish I'd gotten to Neal's house earlier so I could have seen those Empires!
