Satchel is such a Badass Shredder that VOLUME IS HIS TONE !!!!! No Joke !! His Alter ego Russ did some Amazing work with Rob Halfords 90's band FIGHT Get it you wont be sorry ...
I love charvel guitars. and that "George Lynch Tiger Stripe" Paint job is pretty cool too.lol Also, No need for a tone control when you have 2 pickups(neck/bridge) and a toggle. imho
Heavens to mergatroid !! I've heard you play some really awesome guitars in the past,but you ripped out some pretty hot licks on this one. Great review on an awesome guitar.
All jokes aside, this guitar is really great! The craftsmanship, playability, pickups, electronics, fret work, neck and fingerboard! Major Cudos to Charvel snd Satchel! We’ll thought out, we’ll designed , exceptional build quality, versatile, and feeling guitar!!getting one ASAP !!
@@David6.3 Just got me an 80's model 4 in burgundy mist and I am in love with this thing, never had a strat style guitar and this thing just oozes 1980's. Can't wait to learn some Dokken and poison on this axe.
It's not like I need another guitar, but... who doesn't want a glimpse of 80's extravaganza with that eyesoring yellow with tiger stripes.. I mean, come on!
I got a Washburn XM Pro for 200 bucks. They quit making them (if I'm not mistaken), but it shreds! It came with a set of EMG 81 and 85 active pups and a string through design, a light bass wood body (which I like) and an "enbonized" fret board with Grover tuners. They also made them with Mahogany bodies and a Floyd Rose, but they were a little more expensive.
It looks like the push-pull on the pot was used for the voice activation on the Fishman Fluence pickups during the clean section. This guitar really sounds like a rocking 80's shred machine.
Actually; Satchel has confirmed that he can stretch from the 24th fret to the third as long as he's warmed up so this sig' is short two motherfxxxxxg frets dude!
He plays the same boring licks on every video. He just needs to put more time into other styles and less time into his hair and arm waxing. He really isn't a very good player.
Hey Guitar MAX.. i love your stuff on "cheaper" stuff like Dragon fire pups. You're kinda my "go to" on using cheaper stuff for mods.. So, I was wondering if you've tried Dragonfire Actives? and the Gate Buckers.. if so, what's your take on them?
I just saw Steel Panther on Tuesday night, awesome concert!! Got lots of pics and video of their "Here I go Again" Whitesnake music montage. I still have my old 90's shredder (91 Peavey Destiny) I prefer a SSH myself.
Dear Max, i am a big fan of your videos, i want your advise, i am from the Mexican Caribean and recently i have problema with Dragonfire they sent me active pickups out of phase togheter they soun terrible si they didnt want to take care of their mistake, please advise me with any other company that sell good pickups not so expensive that you have try!! Send you best regards!
Yeah awesome job max! I got a charvel pro mod so cal, and I love that guitar, and a esp Ltd eclipse 401 with fishman and they sound great. I wanted this guitar but for the price of the that one, I got those two lol
You asked before whether to tour or focus on UA-cam. I would say your channel is doing ok, and if you feel that the growth is steady enough, stick with it. Touring would probably be a lot more fun, though, and could be productive.
Your recommendation means a lot, highly considering this one now. Question though, you said “let’s find an amp and see what we can do”. I’d be curious to know. What amp / pedals did you use?
This is a copy of George Lynch Kamikaze4 ltd but people keep bashing on the ltd, while calling the charvel ultimate shred machine. Smh Same level of specs!
I didn't know it was possible to play anything other than Steel Panther music on that guitar! Amazing!
Ben Hansen that’s a hilarious joke 😂! Of course you can play whatever you want on that thing (or any guitar)! 😂
Yes but you have to practice a lot. Being able to play Steel Panther comes built in with the guitar
Van Halen at a pinch.
I just got it and I’m only going to use it for Steel Panther, Poison, and other hair metal bands
@@andrewitzla Haha rock on! That's awesome!
I think its wonderful that you review not only cheapo guitars, but also mid /high end stuff! love it man :D keep it up!
getting a purple one this week....sweet video Max....
This channel needs more neon guitars.
Thanks for the great videos Max.

Hell yeah & Just a Little Crazy !!
Yo, bro: you go from shred to something that sounds Robbin Trower. You have an awesome sense of variety. Don't change
Plus… major, major thumbs up to Satchel for keeping the spirit alive in a funny yet awe inspiring way!
That's a fine looking and sounding guitar. Great playing and video as always.
Love charvel super strats!! and Les paul as well!

Hi Max! That's an awesome little axe foreshore. I love the wild Finnish. From your pal Helcat in Australia.
My Specific Ocean San Dimas is one of my favorite guitars in my collection, great metal guitar!

Pickups sound super, great playing
Beautiful charvell
Charvel guitars have always been underrated great quality. Thanks for sharing Max!!
I’ve never known anyone who thought they were under rated, but then again, I’m 54 and have been in love with the brand since the 80’s.

1400€ on thomann and has no Seymour duncans it has knock off chinese shit.This is unacceptable.At least my 700€ kramer baretta has a jb on it
Much appreciated. Love from India ❤️!
The guitar reminds me of the 80's Kramers.
I have these pickups in my Ibanez prestige and my esp these are phenomenal
It's not like I need another guitar, but... who doesn't want a glimpse of 80's extravaganza with that eyesoring yellow with tiger stripes.. I mean, come on!
Gonna get this one in Green finish next week ! Seems like kind of pretty rare today !! Looking forward to put my hands on this beautiful beast !!
It's AMAZING!
Se can't expect nothing bit PERFECT from Satchel and Charvel.
My used slime green Satchel was just delivered today. It totally kicks ass!! Jammin’ some Ratt, and Metallica. These pickups are amazing!!
That thing has a total 80s sound!
Glenn Danzig/Gus.G hybrid shreds on Satchels guitar. 🙂🤘🎸

Another excellent video Guitar Max, good to see your left arm issues healed up completely. (right?)
Hey there! It has healed up in terms of playing guitar, but it's still much weaker than my other arm. In time it will come back though. Thank you!
Hey Max. Start using your left hand for spit shinning the shrimp you'll be back in no time 😂.... Great video I wish I was there,👍
Ever since hearing Stryper played on Jackson/Charvels I always wanted to get one, but alas that financial ship has sailed
Can honestly say i have never picked up a charvel that didn't play great.
Especially the necks! The necks are as good as an American Strat Pro.
Hell yes I love Jackson/charvel especially if you find the old 80s ones!
This one didn't have a great one
i agree, they always play really easy, and stay in tune, they are all very consistant
Charvel, Jackson, BC Rich, Kramer: all the 80's metal guitars were/are great. They all blew away contemporary Fenders and Gibsons for half the price.
Great video Max, but hard to by pass the Les Paul and its iconic sound.
I'm seeing some George Lynch in that Charvel too!!! Love that tone!!!
Total Lynch ripoff
Would be a cool video comparing this to his kramer model and an old george lynch ESP tiger stripe.
Yes
Yes. X2
Jackson/Charvel make the greatest guitars ever.
I agree

Dude those guitars with the maple necks n boards sound so freaking heavy but clear at heavy settings!!! I miss y guitars
Great vid as always Max. thank you. cheers🍺
Well done and thanks for sharing brother!
Another great video bro amazing guitar amazing sound !!!
I'm your 94th like. Good luck with your 0 dislikes. That is hard to do actually.
It looks like the push-pull on the pot was used for the voice activation on the Fishman Fluence pickups during the clean section. This guitar really sounds like a rocking 80's shred machine.
I have the Slime Green one. Plays awesome! great investment!
Satchel is awesome.
That thing has great tonal range.
I love Charvels, because I love to play fast.
I am shocked it's only 22 frets! Satchel once told me he uses a 30 fret axe...
Actually; Satchel has confirmed that he can stretch from the 24th fret to the third as long as he's warmed up so this sig' is short two motherfxxxxxg frets dude!
Really Good guitar .
From Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Oni Hasan Shreds on Guitar , greetings from UK 🎸
These pickups are legit!
These and my other fave’s are the Lollar Imperials. Simply gorgeous sounding. 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Max! ✌🏼
My pleasure!
The I only complaint I have, and a suggestion I’ve yet to see anywhere,! An H /S/S combo! CD one on Fishman! You know everyone wants it.
Would be cool to see a review of the LTD George Lynch GL-200....its only $499.
Thinking about making it my jazz machine
I want it!!! 🔥
✌🏼
I have 5 Charvel San dimas ,the top for Big rock ,is my opinion !!!
Max iz back!!!
Awesome!!! What song has that lick from 2:44-2:54??
Another great review. You did forget to mention that it was a top mounted bridge and the body is a dinky.
When BC RICH was sold in the early 80s some designers went to Charvel so early ones were great! Stay safe!!
OK ?? Kinda funny I get it but I leave the "stay safe "on comments on the motorcycle vids I watch. Wasn't expecting that return comment !!!
Great playing Max, wondering why you rarely use reverb or delay.
He plays the same boring licks on every video. He just needs to put more time into other styles and less time into his hair and arm waxing. He really isn't a very good player.
@@0megalul309 I assume you must wax your arms too.

Cool guitar but you should check out the Schecter DJ Ashba model. It really kicks with an ebony board and a sustainer.
Love the guitar but can't take the paint job. What is the equivalent in the Charvel lineup without the paint job? Anyone?
How does it compare to the Kramer?
Reminds me of George Lynch Tiger ESP model.
How does the 1000 floyd compare to a Schaller German made floyd?
The tiger stripe is the best part
Does Charvel make some fixed bridge models for those that don't use tremolo bar much? Sweet guitar though....
Yes they do!
What song is that riff from at 2.50 if it from a song at all?
Anyone else looking around the room like why am I hearing this echoing like Max is throwing a guitar voice like a guitar ventriloquist? 😱😱😱
How would you compare this guitar to the Schecter that you recently reviewed?
I'd buy this in a second if it were neck- through. That green is hot.
Yeah awesome job max! I got a charvel pro mod so cal, and I love that guitar, and a esp Ltd eclipse 401 with fishman and they sound great. I wanted this guitar but for the price of the that one, I got those two lol
Do you think its worth it to sell my charvel usa select pro mod san dimas for this instead??
You asked before whether to tour or focus on UA-cam. I would say your channel is doing ok, and if you feel that the growth is steady enough, stick with it. Touring would probably be a lot more fun, though, and could be productive.
Do the pickups in this guitar work well for Thrash metal or NWOBHM style metal? How is it for crushing riffs?
Looks like a metal strat, since Charvel is owned by Funder
Max, what tuning are you in for the intro shred clip ?
For me,if it had a ebony fretboard, stainless steel frets and CBS headstock and locking tuners it would be a ten.
We need more tiger stripe cow bell.
Your recommendation means a lot, highly considering this one now. Question though, you said “let’s find an amp and see what we can do”. I’d be curious to know. What amp / pedals did you use?
Max should really do voiceover work.
Only thing missing on this guitar is an angled heel joint.
Steel panther cool
I love me some Charvels, but I'd put my 89 Kramer Stagemaster Custom 1 up against it.
There all ultimate 80s machines. How do you sleep?
Careful that axe can play so fast it liquefy cats with its sweet tone
A tiger-stripe Charvel -- George Lynch already did that.
I thought his was an ESP?
You look like the owner of my new gym, except he has a mustache. You need a mustache.
This guy could present a toilet bowl the girls would watch it
For a signature guitar 1,200 USD isn’t bad.
There's something off about this guy, can't quite put my finger on it.
Great hair!! And axe off course ..🎸Chris Holmes played these amazing guitars I play a Peavey bxp bass left handed .. if anyone cares😁
jobb mint a fender gitár
4th!
pretty cool, maybe not $1400 worth of cool; but pretty cool.
A floyd rose 1000 on a over $1,000 guitar aaah no thank you!
They are solid trems. Played a few German ones that did feel a bit more solid and smooth though.
Good review. But for $1,400, there’s better out there.
This is a copy of George Lynch Kamikaze4 ltd but people keep bashing on the ltd, while calling the charvel ultimate shred machine. Smh
Same level of specs!
