I started peepin' the Charvels after falling in love with the Frankenstein strat neck, then I realized, for the most part, all the modern Charvels are souped-up Fenders (it helps that one owns the other!). To my hands n' eyes, the Charvels take the Fender standard shapes (mostly Strat & Tele) & elongate the bodies longboard-style, keep most of their necks close to unfinished, and aren't afraid of matte presentations in terms of everything else. Chuggalicious Fenders for when you wanna crest higher waves? Kinda awesome. Sometimes the Squiers go the opposite way (some of those necks are just too tiny, but the prixes are representative of the origin, as well), but the Charvels (majority of which are made in Mexico) sway the heavier way in terms of fit & monies. Both brands also provide Fender with ample testing grounds for whatever they do with the USA line (at least, in theory, and only sometimes in practice, as Fender always gotta Fender themselves) but I like that there's both options, either way.dubkitty wrote:i normally don't like off-brand Strat variants, but that's really pretty.
Never met a Peavey of any sort that wasn't 1000lbs, but they all played like absolute butterdubkitty wrote:does it come with a back brace? i played a blonde ash one once that was easily the heaviest stringed instrument i've ever played that wasn't a piano. great sound, though.
