Product information

The Charvel San Dimas' alder body is mated to a bolt-on maple neck that features a pair of graphite reinforcing bars to resist bending and warping under external influences. The Speed ​​neck profile is designed for lightning-fast playing and smooth position changes, while the comfortable, rounded fretboard edges give the well-rehearsed feel of an instrument that has had many hours of playing behind it and many more to come. The 12"-16" maple fretboard is equipped with 22 jumbo frets and black dot inlays.

The Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 humbucker pickup on the bridge and the Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat SSL-6 single-coil pickup in the middle and Custom Flat Strat SSL-6 RWRP pickups in the neck position are mounted directly on the body to ensure vibration transmission improve. This powerful trio of pickup produces aggressive tones in the bridge position for blues and metal runs and the perfect blend of increased output and lively ST-style sound in the middle and neck positions.
A five-way pickup switch, a volume controls and a tone controls provide extensive possibilities for sound variation. The Floyd Rose 1000 Series Double-Locking tremolo system lets you add harmonic vibrato without affecting your guitar's tuning .

About Charvel San Dimas Style 1

In response to the modification trend of the 1980s, Charvel began building guitars that met those needs straight from the factory . The result was the San Dimas Style 1, a Superstrat that to this day stands for innovation and the latest technology at Charvel .

About Charvel

Charvel began as a guitar repair shop in Southern California in the late 1970s. This became known because not only guitars were repaired there, but many more popular models such as the Fender Stratocaster were modified and converted into so-called Superstrats . These guitars were particularly well received in the metal scene of the 1980s. When Grover Jackson joined the company in 1978, he quickly began releasing his own guitars under the Charvel name. Until 1986, all Charvel guitars were produced exclusively in California, but to meet high demand, production eventually moved to Japan. In 2002, Fender acquired both Charvel and Jackson from the Japanese company IMC, which purchased the two companies from Grover Jackson in 1989.

Today Charvel produces a number of different series of guitars in both the USA and Mexico . When it comes to Charvel 's individual series, everyone will find a suitable instrument. Charvel 's range can mainly be divided into three different categories, which can then be divided into several subgroups. These categories are the DK (also called Dinky) series, the So-Cal and the San Dimas . The characteristics of the guitars can sometimes be difficult to distinguish. The DK or Dinky series , as the name suggests, are smaller and lighter than the other series. This makes playing for longer periods much more pleasant. The difference between So-Cal and San Dimas is a little harder to define as both ranges come in 2 styles . Both the So-Cal and the San Dimas are available as ST guitars and T guitars . At first glance, they differ mainly in that the San Dimas guitars do not have a pickguard (“most”), and they also differ minimally in the construction / acoustic of the body and in the possible selection of pickups. All Charvel series and styles are also available as Pro-Mod models, which are guitars specially modified for performance optimization.

But Charvel is not satisfied with this huge selection and, in addition to acustom shop, also has signature models from artists such as Jim Root and Jake E. Lee . There is also USA Select. These are handcrafted guitars from the custom shop in Corona California . One thing can be said, no matter which Charvel guitar you choose, you will receive a quality instrument that you will have fun with for many years.

In addition to electric guitars, Charvel also builds excellent electric basses with the San Dimas Bass PJ and JJ series . The basses come with a mix of DiMarzio and Charvel's own pickups and ensure a really good sound.
