I brought this home on Friday. I would've posted sooner, but was really busy all weekend until now, now that I'm back in the truck.
So anyway, it's a really good used Charvel Wildcard #6 Dreamsicle....it even still has the case candy
. One of the shops I go to had it for awhile, and everytime I've been in there it has caught my eye. So, finally, last month I said screw it and put it on layaway. They had it about $100 cheaper than I could find them online for, so the price was right as well.
This thing is as good, if not better than my USA made Jacksons. Great neck, and it plays really smooth. This is also the first guitar that I've had without a tone control, so I've been getting to hear another side of the JB and STK-1 pickups that I hadn't heard before. I may end up bypassing the tone controls on all of my guitars, if I still like this after the honeymoon wears off.
The only thing I don't like is the drastic volume drop between the bridge and neck, which is something I've noticed on my Jacksons with the same pickups. But since it's an example of a very limited run, I may just leave it, and it could come in handy when using the volume knob to clean up an amp.
And it's great to have a Charvel again. my first electric was a Charvel Dinky (not sure of the exact model), so this is kinda like welcoming an old friend back home.
