Charvel Model A Plus Pro Series Electric Guitar

Charvel build their Pro Series instruments in Japan, and the incredible Model A Plus features a Birdseye Maple neck, an Ebony fingerboard, a Mahogany body, and even a Quilt Maple top on the models with a transparent finish. It's equipped with Seymour Duncan pickups: two Lil Screamin Demon humbuckers and a Pearly Gates humbucker in the bridge. This pickup configuration gives you lots of power and a hot, sweet tone that's an awesome complement to the Mahogany body. Other features include 24 jumbo frets, a JT580LP double-locking 2-point tremolo bridge system, 5-way pickup switching and black hardware.

The Pickups

Pearly Gates
The original custom Pearly Gates pickups were wound for the famous '59 Les Paul® Standard that defined the raw, rebellious sound of Texas blues rock. Essentially a variation on the Patent Applied For sound, the Pearly Gates sound is sweet, but slightly rude, with great sustain and a bright top that make harmonics jump out of the guitar.

George Lynch Li'l Screamin' Demon
Like its big brother the Screamin' Demon humbucker, this li'l savage combines a big, open sound with just a subtle hint of glass in a direct replacement humbucker for Strat® guitars. George asked for a pickup that could scream and provide rich harmonics, but would clean up when he backed it off. Using a unique slotted and Allen head screw combination that gives each coil a slightly different magnetic field, the tone is big and percussive without being too harsh. U.S. Patent No. Des. 355,207.
