The San Dimas body of this electric guitar is crafted from sassafras and paired with a bolt - on maple neck. It has two graphite reinforcement rods to prevent bending and warping due to environmental changes. The speed neck profile is ideal for lightning - fast playing and seamless position changes. The fingerboard edges are smoothly rolled, giving it the cozy feel of a well - played instrument. The 12' - 16' compound radius ebony fingerboard, with 22 jumbo frets and white dot inlays, is perfect for high - tempo music. For touring musicians, the heel - mount truss rod with an adjustable thumbwheel allows for quick neck relief adjustments. The guitar features a humbucking Seymour Duncan® JB™ TB - 4 bridge pickup and single - coil Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat® SSL - 6 pickups in the middle and neck positions. Mounted directly to the body, they transfer vibrations effectively. In the bridge position, they create aggressive harmonics for blues and metal, while in the middle and neck positions, they offer a great blend of high output and Stratocaster charm. With a five - way blade pickup switch, volume control, and a no - load tone control, you can access a wide range of tones. At position ten, the tone control provides a transparent sound, letting the guitar's natural voice shine.

Using your Charvel electric guitar is a breeze. First, tune it up using the Charvel - branded die - cast locking tuning machines. Once tuned, you can start playing. Use the five - way blade pickup switch to select different pickup combinations and get various tones. The volume control is straightforward for adjusting the sound level, and the no - load tone control gives you more tonal options. When playing fast songs, the speed neck profile and the compound radius fingerboard will let your fingers move quickly. For touring or when the environment changes, use the heel - mount truss rod's thumbwheel to adjust the neck relief if needed. As for maintenance, keep your guitar clean. Wipe it down with a soft cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt. You can also use a guitar polish to keep the satin finish looking good. Check the strings regularly. When they start to sound dull or feel rough, replace them with new nickel - plated steel strings of the same gauge (.009 -.042). And always store your guitar in a proper case to protect it from bumps and scratches.
