Charvel Pro Mod San Dimas 2H FR Trans Red Burst

Allmänt

Charvel guitars aren't just high-quality instruments, they also boast a beautiful finish. Take the Pro Mod San Dimas 2H FR in Trans Red Burst, for instance, which has a burgundy-like colour that looks great with the maple neck. The quilted maple veneer top adds an overall chic look to the guitar. The true power of this San Dimas guitar, however, lies in its combination of a Floyd Rose tremolo system with double locking nut, two Seymour Duncan humbuckers, clever controls and the spoke wheel underneath its lowest fret. Look at this gorgeous electric guitar at your own peril; it might be love at first sight!

Pro Mod San Dimas 2H FR Trans Red Burst: any sound you want

This Charvel Pro Mod guitar boasts a number of great characteristics that deserve a closer look. Next to the bridge, you'll find a Seymour Duncan '59 pickup, and by the neck, there's a JB TB-4 from the same manufacturer. Both humbuckers are mounted directly onto the body without extra springs for resonance, ensuring lots of sustain and a high output. A three-way switch and two potentiometers allow for various sounds, but engaging the volume knob's push/pull function and the tone knob's No-Load function really makes things interesting. Push/pull splits your pickups in half, effectively turning them into single-coils, while No-Load takes the tone knob out of the circuit at position 10, guaranteeing maximum output.

A comfortable instrument

This Pro Mod San Dimas's Floyd Rose adds more dynamics to your playing, while the double locking nut keeps your strings in tune. A neck with a compound radius allows for easy chords and riffs around the first frets (where the fretboard is more curved), as well as effortless leads and bends as you move up the neck (where the fretboard becomes flatter). If the position of the guitar's neck feels unnatural to you, you can quickly adjust the truss rod with a hex key by loosening or fastening the spoke wheel underneath the 22nd fret.
