I was looking to get a Charvel San Dimas Style 1 HH but I never played one. Any input on them?

Have an old Charvel model 3 which is very good indeed.

Can't comment on the new ones I'm afraid..

this one I like but out of my price range, finding a used one in good condition would be a very cool happening:

I have a feeling which ever Charvel ends up in your possession will make you a happy guitar player. :D

I am right on the verge of picking up one of the new Charvel Desolation series guitars - these guitars (I'm going to add $50 for the trans-red) are HOT!! Set neck, active pickups, 24 frets and awesome styling!

Merry Christmas to me!! :D

Just been reading some great reviews of the Desolation series in a recent "Guitarist" magazine. I particularly admired that very one you have there..

However my rock guitar playing days are pretty much over :wink:

I have never owned a Charvel, However I have a Brother who worked for Wayne in the late 70's/early 80's.

I read somewhere that Charvel/Jackson was bought by Fender in 2002
