About Henrik Danhage
Guitarist Henrik Danhage has been delivering the blistering riffs of Swedish progressive heavy metal band Evergrey for nearly two decades. Evergrey's music is quite dark, the lyrics deal with rather dark topics. The band describes their music as “Melodic Dark Power Metal” , but the band has clear thrash and progressive influences , which is why the genre cannot be clearly defined. Henrik joined the band founded by Tom Englund in 2001 along with the other new members Michael Håkansson and Sven Karlsson. Since then, his powerful guitar playing has become an integral part of Evergrey 's sound .
Henrik has always had a love for Charvel guitars , so his popular signature model is now being re-released.
Modern sound with a used look
The So-Cal Style 1 ash body has a 25.5" scale length and a bolt-on maple neck with a graphite reinforcement that provides excellent support against extreme environmental influences . A 12"-16" compound radius maple fretboard with comfortable rounded edges, 22 jumbo frets and black dot inlays provide the ideal finish for hard riffs and precise chord playing, while a truss rod adjustment wheel allows for quick and easy neck position adjustments. The Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 bridge pickup is a versatile, high-performance humbucker , which is perfect for crisp rock 'n' roll or blistering metal sounds , while the DiMarzio Area 67 DP419CR single-coil neck pickup shines with shimmering clean sounds . The single volume control (labeled "Tone") houses a push/ Push selector switch to switch between bridge and neck pickup, a Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo keeps this ax in tuning even after endless dive bombs and the most brutal riffs. The Henrik Danhage Limited edition Signature Pro-Mod So-Cal Style 1 looks like it has 20 years of touring behind it . It features a Heavy Relic finish with a three-ply white pickguard, reversed headstock, Relic neck and chrome hardware. A Charvel Multi-Fit Hardshell gig bag is also included.

The So-Cal Style 1 guitars are Charvel's homage to the modified Superstrats of the late 1970s and early 1980s. They consist of classic Strat bodies with a pickguard and maple neck, but feature a Floyd Rose locking tremolo.
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.
