Charvel San Dimas Guitars

San Dimas is where the superstrat was invented: a small California shop hot-rodding double-cuts with big frets, hot pickups, and locking trems while the big brands were standing still. Today the name marks Charvel's core body style, and this page gathers every San Dimas we have in stock, from Pro-Mod to full Custom Shop.

About the Charvel San Dimas

Between 1979 and 1986, Charvel's shop in San Dimas, California built the guitars that defined the hot-rod formula: take a familiar double-cut, throw out everything polite, and build it for players who needed more. That legacy is why the San Dimas name still anchors the Charvel line. Style 1 is the classic double-cut in HH and HSS layouts; Style 2 wraps the same intent in a single-cut, Tele-style body.

We stock the San Dimas across the range: Pro-Mod models that deliver the recipe at its friendliest price, the Super-Stock line, the USA-built American Neo-Classic, USA Select Style 2, the Guthrie Govan signature MJ San Dimas built in Japan, and true Custom Shop builds from Corona, California. Most of these are one-at-a-time guitars, so what you see on this page is exactly what is on the wall.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between San Dimas Style 1 and Style 2?

Style 1 is the classic double-cut superstrat body, usually HH or HSS with a Floyd Rose or two-point trem. Style 2 takes the same hot-rod formula and puts it in a single-cut, Tele-style body. Same necks, same intent, different silhouette.

What separates a Pro-Mod San Dimas from a USA model?

Pro-Mod models are built overseas to Charvel's spec and are the best value in the line. USA Select and Custom Shop guitars are built in Corona, California with premium woods, finishes, and hardware, and the Custom Shop builds to order. All of them share the San Dimas DNA; the USA models sweat the last few percent.

How much does a Charvel San Dimas cost?

Pro-Mod San Dimas models are the entry into the line, USA Select roughly doubles that, and Custom Shop builds are priced by spec. Every guitar on this page shows live pricing, and everything listed is in stock and ready to ship.
