Charvel

Charvel is where the superstrat began: a Southern California shop that took familiar double-cuts and rebuilt them for players who needed more. Everything we list is in stock, from Pro-Mod models to Corona-built USA Select and Custom Shop guitars.

About Charvel Guitars

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Charvel's San Dimas shop built the guitars that wrote the hot-rod formula: big frets, hot pickups, locking trems, and necks built for speed. Eddie Van Halen's early parts guitars came out of that scene, and so did Jackson. The modern line keeps the same shape of intent, from the Pro-Mod and Super-Stock series through the Japan-built MJ models to USA Select and full Custom Shop builds from Corona, California.

Our Charvel stock leans into one-of-a-kind finishes: Chlorine Burst, Aqua Flake, Diamond Life, Satin Plum. Most listings are single guitars photographed as-is, so what you see is the instrument that ships. The Guthrie Govan signature MJ San Dimas and the Satchel Pro-Mod DK22 anchor the signature side.

Frequently asked questions

Where are Charvel guitars made?

It depends on the line. Pro-Mod and Super-Stock models are built overseas to Charvel's spec, MJ models are built in Japan, and USA Select and Custom Shop guitars are built in Corona, California. Each listing states its line in the title.

What is the cheapest way into a Charvel?

The Pro-Mod series is the entry into the line and an enormous amount of guitar for the money: same body styles and intent as the USA models, built overseas. Every listing shows live pricing, and everything listed is in stock.

What is the difference between a San Dimas and a So-Cal?

Both are Style 1 double-cuts; the practical difference is the top. San Dimas models have an exposed-wood or solid-finish flat top, while So-Cal models wear a pickguard like the classic parts guitars of the era. Layouts and necks overlap heavily, so pick with your eyes.
