Back in 2011 when I was in high school, my mom gave me a choice of getting a class ring for my birthday or a new guitar. We couldn’t afford both, so I chose the guitar. It was a white Charvel So Cal (Japanese made) that we found a good deal on. 10 years later it’s still main main workhorse and a was way better choice than a dumb class ring.
Fender was very clever absorbing and beign partner with different guitar brands. If you want vintage stuff you got Fender, vintage style with modern features? Charvel got you back and if you are full on metal, Jackson has more than enough pointy guitars. Ohh and if you're are an VH junkie , EVH has some killer stuff too ;)
Spot on analysis. I can’t go back to a strat after playing the effortless neck and almost non-existent heel joint of a Charvel. It’s like night and day difference with the strat’s gigantic heel
I actually just sold my DK24, but I had it for two years when these newer pro mods came out. Unbelievable guitar for the money, and I plan on picking up another one in the near future. I'm hoping Charvel releases one with a floyd, ebony board, and roasted maple neck. I'd be all over it.
I have the matte gray but the finish wears off easily. I love the neck so much, I'm having the body repainted and upgrade the pickups... Will eventually upgrade the frets to stainless.
Honestly man, I own this same one Ola is playing, as well as the Dual humbucker orange quilted maple top mahogany body pro mod. The white one obviously doesn't have a Floyd, the orange maple top does. But I have to say man, even though I'd play either without any complaints, the Gotoh 510 2PT bridge on this one, the Pro Mod DK24 HSS, I truly believe is an even better bridge than the Floyd. Love the Floyd on the other one, but the combo of the Gotoh and locking tuners on this white one is just magic. I love it so much.
Love it! Glad that Charvel listens to people on Social Media, and took the colour options seriously. The white and gold combo reminds me of the Dave Navarro signature. Good Taste!
I wonder if anyone complains about these extremely noisy pickups when noiseless single coils that sound a lot like this have been around for 40 years. For a 'pro mod' guitar, there should be Dimarzio Virtual Vintage or something, or whatever SD makes in that vein, and not these. These are for tone guys, not super strat players
I just recently got this guitar (in the shell pink) and it is AMAZING! Build quality, features, playability and MANY tone possibilities - from full shred to tele clean to lush. I LOVE this guitar, thanks for the great vid!
It's just the neck that has hum right? It looks like the middle 3 positions are all pairings of single coils, which I'd assume are hum-free tones? But I can't find out if they're parallel or series.
This is one of the not so many 'modern' guitars that really impressed me checking guitars in a music shop! The neck profile, wood, pickups, two point trem, ergonomics, ... pretty much anything is on point!
Is it versatile? I am comparing it to Prs SE Custom 24. They are both beautiful guitars, but the Charvel looks more straight forward and less pretentious.
@@biohazard8295 yeah! It can do pretty much anything. Meanwhile Harley Benton has released their take on this model. If you want it for a bit cheaper, you can go that route and just replace the electronics ;)
@@NathanSidF thanks for info. Actually i am saving some money and wanted a good guitar. P.s. i already have a harley benton, they are extremely good for the money, but still it feels a bit cheap, also it has poor resell value.
Yeah I have a Pro Mod DK24 and a Player Strat and I love them both. In fact I bought the Player series because I already had the Charvel and knew that if it was made in the Mexican factory the Fender would be great too.
Played the dual humbucker version with the blue burst, this is the best all around guitar I've played. You can go from metal of all kinds to R&B to country, to reggae.
It's funny you say that because so many people complain that it's way too bright to sounds good in any situation, i guess the amp setting have a lot to do with the trble of it. But if i can use a single coil tele to chug then the sh10 will also be adequate
@@eliasmsv3156 i don't know what those people are smoking tbh, sh4, sh5 and sh6 are all brighter sounding pickups in my experience. especially the sh5.
I own this as a 2018 model in primer gray, I have bareknuckle pick ups in it and a few other mods. It by far is the nicest guitar I've ever owned and played.
I have the Shell Pink one. I really need to get around to changing the pickups. I like the feel of the guitar, but it's the worst sounding out of all my guitars, so I don't pick it up as much as I should.
Got a used Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 2 a year or two ago and its consistently the best sounding and feeling guitar I've ever played. Sounds orders of magnitute better than my Schecter Blackjack Avenger FR-S for reasons I dont quite understand
Andy Wood has a song called "Shredneck", on his "A Disconcerting Amalgam" album. Probably the last word in chicken-pickin shred. Check it out, it's insane.
I've got the charvel hh in black and it's an amazing guitar. I've wanted to put it up against an az but I can't ever find one at my local music stores. I really want to see how different the necks are
@@lejeq pickups sound more versatile imo, neck definitely plays faster brcause of the flatter profile compared to the Fender-y AZ...I wished it had stainlesssteel frets though
@@CroneRaven1810 I have guitars with ss frets and nickel frets. I don't notice too much of a difference between them at least when the frets are polished up. Yes the stainless will last longer but nickel frets will still last year's. Fender is just a little late to the party. Not really surprising when a large portion of their customers want a copy of a guitar from the 50s to 70s. They'll come around eventually though
Niiiice! Had the Shell Pink..... LOVE it so much... just bought this cuz the white wit gold got me allllll fkd-up! Hadda do it. Thanks, fuckah!! 🔥🔥🔥💨💨💨🍺🍺🍺🤟🤟🤟💯💯💯
I have the black HH version and absolutely dig it. Yet, as I am playing mild crunch in an indie pop band, I swapped the pickups to SD Pearly Gates. Now it's just a perfectly comfortable, insanely sleek and elegant guitar with low output hummies, which you wouldn't think when you see it. Not your typical "indie" guitar, but that is exactly what I like about it ;-)
I’m a strat guy, through and through…a very bluesy player, myself…but, I dabble in metal. I’m looking for a metal guitar that also does Strat cleans and can still retain a somewhat “Strat tone”, even with gain pumped through the humbuckers….this guitar seems to fit the bill. Thank you 🙏
Great looking guitar but I don't care for the Full Shred in the bridge, those are better in the neck position because they are scooped with a big treble spike. Strat style guitars need mids.
I absolutely love my DK24 HH. It's better than guitars I have costing twice as much! The caramelized shred speed neck is absolutely amazing. The HH may be more your style with the Air Norton Duncan in the neck! Great review Ola!!🤘😎
I’m looking at getting one but I’ve heard the full shred is quite a low output pickup. I like playing John Petrucci and other fairly heavy proggy stuff, would you recommend it for that?
@@davidlane147 They are plenty hot. Add that tone circuit bypass into the equation and it's hard to beat. I have a DiMarzio Super Distortion in another axe and it's an amazing pickup... but maybe a little too hot. The DiMarzio can OD the clean channel. This may not be what you want to hear (as it might be a PITA) but I recommend you play one. I have over 10 axes but none of them play as well as the Charvel's in the collection. I paid 2 grand for an amazing shreddy guitar, but the 2 charvels still play better for half the price IMO. We're talking minute degrees of difference in all around great instruments, but when one costs twice as much it can beg the question... should I have just bought 2 Charvels instead? I mean you could buy a Charvel and put literally whatever pickups you want and still save 500$. The Charvel Speed neck with compound radius and carbon fiber reinforcement is ultrastable and the best feeling neck I've ever played. I live in a scorching desert that gets 20°f in the winter and I've had zero problems and never had to touch the truss rod. I've heard some people say that after nearly 10 years their neck is still in perfect adjustment on their Charvels. Bottom line, try one. 🤘
@@munkyenima Wow I think you just sold it, perhaps you should consider a career with charvel lol the lack of stainless steel frets was one of the only things putting doubt in my mind but sounds like it’s not enough to sway people against it
I absolutely love this however I took it to a setup to lower action and the dude couldn’t do it. Buzzing all over with a low action. Don’t know what is the secret here or is it the shape that is different from standard metal type necks design
for me , I would swap those two single coils to dimarzio area 67 and 58 pickup for solid performance and keeping the quiet, change the output jack to qi output jack for solid performance and replacing fat tremolo brass or titanium block , more better
Ive never heard anyone say a bad word about Charvel not once. If that isn't praise i dont know what is. Just got my first one yesterday and its a dream.. they are such good value you can get a second hand one for a few hundred and it will be 10x the quality of other similar guitars in that price range.
Yeah, I actually agree with this, I just see overwhelming positive about them, and for good reason. I think they’re fantastic. I bought a chlorine burst DK24 A year ago, and it’s my favorite electric guitar. I had a 50s standard Gibson Les Paul, and I sold it because I liked playing the Charvel more.
I just bought the DK 24 HH version in Chlorine Burst ,beautiful guitar, feels good , looks good, sounds good , you can pick these up used for a good price on Reverb / Ebay these days
I had one of these promod dk24s, loved loved loved the neck, probably one of the best I've played. I was not a fan of the trem though, and much prefer a good floyd rose, which is pretty much why I sold it. Great guitar though.
I have a Bare Knuckle Cobra bridge single coil (the Cobra-T telecaster version) in a (shielded) Squier Contemporary Telecaster RH and it is not noisy like that, I was really surprised. Must be to do with the unusual magnet and blades setup in it. The single coils on this Charvel are much more typical.

One of the best playing guitars on the market. The charvel roasted necks are probably the best around
yup!!!
So I guess if you want those type of necks fender products is the way to go You're saying?
@@patrickh.1658 just a preference thing in terms of feel. Roasted maple in general is the best feeling neck wood to me
Without a doubt. Bought their DK24 HSS after one play. That neck…
@@Riff_salad that's why I ONLY play Charvel/Jackson...THE NECKS are like butter....you can EASILY change pickups but NOT necks
Love the 510. The Wilkinson locking saddles fit on it perfectly if you want a little extra tuning stability.
There are not many cases in which i like gold hardware but that is one sharp guitar indeed. I really like that input jack, very slick!
In my opinion the best "affordable" guitars are coming from Fender's Mexico factory right now.
I couldn’t agree more. Fender is killing it right now.
Yeah I have a Pro Mod DK24 and a Player Strat and I love them both. In fact I bought the Player series because I already had the Charvel and knew that if it was made in the Mexican factory the Fender would be great too.
Yup id rather pay half for a guitar made by mexicans in mexico than pay double for a guitar made by mexicans in california.
Absolutely! Bought the Charvel So Cal 2 Spring 2020; very well built instrument.
Agreed, the new Player series is amazing!
Have one and it is hands down the best guitar I've ever played. Really happy I own it.
The JP-2C is one of my all-time favorite amps. And certainly my favorite MESA.
Played the dual humbucker version with the blue burst, this is the best all around guitar I've played. You can go from metal of all kinds to R&B to country, to reggae.
I think I'm going to buy this guitar.
That’s a good sounding axe, looks very pretty
Love my DK24- most versatile guitar in my collection. I use it in a lot of my vids, this week included,
beautiful guitar really excited to see ola finally review a charvel
Would love to see that recessed Gotoh 510 trem on more Solar guitars rather than a Floyd
Agreed. Unless you’re doing serious Vai dive bombs, modern two points+locking tuners can handle whatever you throw at it.
Absolutely the input jack
I have the primer grey version from the first year they released them,. Twas a surprise Xmas gift from the wife,.. best guitar I have!
sh10 is such an insanely good pickup.
I have a couple of guitars with Full Shreds in the bridge. They sound awesome in a guitar with mahogany body wood.

whats wrong with the seynour duncans??? they sound great
my dream guitar
I love it but I'd prefer it in black, red or some 80s neon green or yellow. Something about Charvel guitars makes me want something 80s-style.
I had to drop the middle pickup on mine because I kept hitting it, but I love it other than that.
Got a used Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 2 a year or two ago and its consistently the best sounding and feeling guitar I've ever played. Sounds orders of magnitute better than my Schecter Blackjack Avenger FR-S for reasons I dont quite understand
Really cool looking guitar! Thanks for giving us a taste.
Man Jacksons and Charvels are my favourite guitars! Really awesome guitar! Great tone !!!!
White body, roasted neck and gold hardware make that a very classy looking guitar.
Agree the middle pickup gets in my way also....Peace ✌ ☮
This thing is comfortable as hell. My fav guitar at the moment. I wish I wouldn't have gotten the pink one though. Lol
Whats wrong with the pink one?
@@TheBigglenn311 Pink is okay but I wish I had black
"Shredneck" sounds like a pun you'd use as a song title, which would feature a lengthy Yngwie-style solo on the banjo! xD
Sounds like a Dimebag solo album if he were still around
Andy Wood and uncle Ben (Ben Eller) call themselves shrednecks. 🤘
Andy Wood has a song called "Shredneck", on his "A Disconcerting Amalgam" album. Probably the last word in chicken-pickin shred. Check it out, it's insane.

@@jamessteelman9276 Dig a little deeper friend.

Splendid color. White guitars are so in style)
nice to see the fender charvels again
I have mainly fenders but I should of got a Charel at one point. Perfect for 80s style players such as myself
Do they roll the fingerboard edges?
This guitar for me is the PERFECT instrument in all aspects .. im drooling over here xD
You should buy an aea a440 active ribbon mic to use as your room mic. It will make you cry. When you hear it, look at it, and remember the price.

Hell yeah! I love those charvel guitars!!
Yes, a very nice guitar! I think I would prefer to have one with a Floyd Rose bridge. (I've never played a bridge like unto that one......) V⚡🇺🇸
Was sitting here jamming on my DK24 when I saw the notification :^)
So was I !
Got a So Cal on order. Should be here in fall. Have desolation soloist. Beautiful guitar that shreds.
I also had to lower the middle pickup a bit. After that, this is by far the best playing guitar I have ever played. The neck is perfect!
It’s nice. Very distinct tone compared to say a les Paul custom.
i think the guitar like this will fit to Solar line up
Niiiice! Had the Shell Pink..... LOVE it so much... just bought this cuz the white wit gold got me allllll fkd-up! Hadda do it. Thanks, fuckah!! 🔥🔥🔥💨💨💨🍺🍺🍺🤟🤟🤟💯💯💯
This is cool guitar 🔥🔥🔥
You’re wearing a Gutts shirt! That’s one awesome anime. And yeah I think the Charvel can chug
Way better and playable neck than the Ibanez AZ
My next guitar will likely be a Charvel. They meet my needs. But where is the Randall amp?
Considering getting this guitar and swapping out the bridge pickup for a BKP Blackhawk I have laying around.
Gotta get Angel Vivaldi’s new Charvel NOVA Firemist 6 string. I just got it and it shreds n chugs nicely.
