  • Chuck Splatter...I don't have the words

    <font color="yellow">Well, it finally arrived today. I've been on pins-and-needles ever since it shipped from Boston.

    Chuck has graciously once again offered me a Charvel out of his stable so that I can see/feel/hear exactly what the hype is about these guitars a lot of us love.

    I am speachless....this thing is incredible! Chuck said I may have to tweak the action....nope [img]/images/graemlins/refuse.gif[/img]

    This thing PLAYS and sounds INCREDIBLE!!

    Chuck....you are one of my best friends on the board, and I know you could have sold this for a lot more money, but you didn't. I honestly don't have the words to express what I'm feeling.

    This guitar is one of the 3 known Charvel's to have a combination of ebony board and sharkfin inlays and it has a rare matching headstock also (Kev Maynard called it a Jackson [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]).

    Here is a pic that Chuck sent to me from his stash:


    I'll take more pics this weekend of it along with the others.

    Chuck...again, thank you bro [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img].

      <font color="yellow">Scott...no, I bought it at a rediculously low price, lower than I know it's worth anyway.

      Chuck and I have talked and became really good friends over the last year or so, Lucy and Krista are buddies etc.

      I just started my foray into the Jackson world a few short years ago, and was curious about USA Charvel's.

      I got my first Charvel from Chuck also from an 83' pointy neck and a 84 Strat body built around the plate. I love it and then this popped up and I couldn't resist.

      Chuck and I (to a much lesser degree) also helped get Scoopy back together and reunited with his original SD Plate (Chuck orchestrated and choreographed almost all of that).

      Chuck's a great dude, genuine and passionate in his love for these guitars. He also has a killer collection of guitars of his own.

      I'm hopelessly addicted now lol [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

      As Tommy would say, I'm hucklefukked now...but that's cool...I have you guys to share it with [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img] </font>

          Well then, congrats are in order. [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img] I am glad you are so happy Sam, she looks great. I would like to get a SD Pointy some day. I should have saved the gold pointy, but I slept on it, and besides that, I prefer pointy bodies. [img]/images/graemlins/sleep.gif[/img] Ya snooze ya lose. Congrats again brother.

            Chuck is the man, that's for sure!
            Congrats I have played this guitar a few times myself,
            and it's a beauty, it's got a great neck on it and it sounds
            balls to the walls.
            You'll love it! [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]
            If this is our perdition, will you walk with me?

              That one had been close to being shipped west a few times! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] But a dead fridge, and 4 new tires for the jeep look to have ended my suffering. That is cool one for sure Sam, enjoy it!! [img]/images/graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

                      I still don't know what the big deal is I've never played a SD Charvel, & I guess untill I do my fall to the dark side will never be complete. Either way Congratz on the new Guitar it sure does look purrty ! I like the Khaler to. [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

                              Drake - go try out a new USA pointy - same neck.
