Frequently Asked Questions

The neck and fingerboard have a satin finish, providing a fast and comfortable playing experience – it’s not sticky like some gloss finishes can be.
The Charvel Custom pickups are designed for clarity; they handle high-gain well, retaining articulation and definition even at higher drive levels.
