The Pro-Mod So-Cal Style 1 HSH FR E is a stunning high-octane
axe, fueled by four decades of guitarist’s requests for a hot-rodded
high-performance guitar with the latest and greatest features. Paying
homage to its 1980s Southern California roots, the So-Cal blends
vintage-style appointments with the classic playability and innovative
design elements that have made Charvel® a legendary name.
More comfortable than an overstuffed armchair, the So-Cal body
is sleekly sculpted out of alder and paired with a rock-solid bolt-on
maple neck with a pair of graphite-reinforcement rods to handle the
ravages of the road and climate. A conveniently located heel-mount
spoke wheel allows for rapid truss rod tweaks, even in between songs.
Engineered for effortlessly nimble playing, the speed neck profile and
12”-16” compound radius ebony fingerboard with 22 frets is perfect for
all styles of play — from low end riffing to soaring leads with worry-free
upper-register bends.
Hot-rodded for unparalleled performance and sound, this instrument
hosts a high-output Seymour Duncan® Distortion™ TB-6 humbucking
bridge pickup, Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat® SSL-6 Single-Coil
middle pickup and a Seymour Duncan Distortion SH-6N humbucking
neck pickup. This powerful pickup trio produces aggressive harmonics
in the bridge position for distinguished blues and metal runs, the
perfect blend of heightened output and springy Stratocaster attitude
in the middle, and the ideal searing, crunchy tone for brazen leads in
the neck. Extensive tonal variations are on top with a five-way blade
pickup switch, volume control and a no-load tone control that operates
like a standard tone control from positions one through nine, and
removes itself from the circuit at position ten for transparent sound,
letting the full natural voice of the guitar shine through. Scream or
rumble with the Floyd Rose® 1000 Series double-locking tremolo
system without sacrificing tuning stability or the pinpoint intonation.
Born from a love of high-speed playing and designed to inspire, the
Pro-Mod So-Cal Style 1 HSH FR E is wrapped in Robin’s Egg Blue
and features a white pickguard and chrome hardware.
