Charvel has just introduced its new Desolation series of guitars. These are entirely new instrument designs that have never been seen in the Charvel’s 30-year history, that deliver new tonal options and features for a new breed of player

There are 10 new guitars in the first run of the Charvel Desolation series—four single-cutaway “DS” models, three double-cutaway “DC” models and three highly distinctive Skatecaster “SK” models loosely based on the Charvel Surfcaster of the early 1990s. These guitars have premium features at a price tag that is affordable.  Charvel has always been know for hot-rod features and highly playable guitars for guitarists that demand speed and playability. The Charvel Desolation Series Guitars bring those features to their new line of affordable guitars. They feature mahogany bodies and necks, dual humbucking pickup configurations with three-way toggle switching, solid and transparent finishes (with flame maple veneer on trans finishes) and black nickel hardware. Most feature compound-radius (12”-16”) rosewood fingerboards with 24 jumbo frets in a variety of neck-through, set-neck and bolt-on configurations; Charvel bridges specially designed for compound-radius fingerboards (except DS-3 ST Floyd Rose-equipped models); and three-on-a-side locking Charvel tuners (except DS-3 ST and Floyd Rose®-equipped models, which have non-locking three-on-a-side tuners).  The Charvel Desolation Series is built for speed and killer looks.
