Old-school DNA gets supercharged! Charvel's Limited Edition Super Stock SC1 is a pure-bred superstrat, melding a classic mid-'80s formula with some modern enhancements to suit today's players.
This hot-rodded guitar is loaded with some incredible premium features, including super-hot EVH and Seymour Duncan pickups and a 1000-Series Floyd Rose tremolo system - making it a true hard rock machine!
Construction
Alder is a classic tonewood commonly used in the construction of Strat-style guitars; a tradition that Charvel has largely continued to adhere to. With very balanced tonal qualities, Alder ensures a strong mid-range that lends itself particularly well to high-gain; producing a focused tone that can punch through effortlessly in frantic mixes.
Paired with a Maple neck, this bright-sounding wood will help to deliver some lively top-end definition, while the bolt-on construction provides a snappy response with plenty of projection and clarity.
A compound radius Pau Ferro fingerboard is an excellent, high-end feature of this instrument. Rounded at the lower end of the neck to make chords easier to play, the fretboard flattens out in the higher register to make shredding a total breeze. This also helps to prevent notes from fretting out when performing string bends - making it a very practical design.
Electronics & Hardware
This rock and roll workhorse is powered by some delightfully potent pickups. With an EVH Wolfgang humbucker and a Seymour Duncan Lil' Screamin’ Demon in the bridge and neck positions respectively, these dynamic pickups can handle high doses of gain without breaking a sweat, yet clean up nicely for expressive low-gain tones.
The Charvel Super Stock SC1's Floyd Rose 1000 Series tremolo will keep your tuning super-solid, with its double-locking design ensuring a return to pitch even with the most aggressive of use!
