Overview
The Pro-Mod Series continues upon Charvel's storied legacy of innovative excellence in high-performance guitar design, offering the latest technology and top-notch features that modern players need. An ideal instrument for dazzling high-speed playing, the all-new Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 1 HSS FR E Sassafras boasts scorching sound, stunning style and grin-inducing playing feel and performance.
The San Dimas sassafras body is coupled with a bolt-on maple neck featuring a pair of graphite-reinforcement rods to resist bending and warping under environmental stresses. The speed neck profile is designed for lightning fast playing and completely unhindered position shifts, while the comfortably rolled fingerboard edges provide the broken-in feel of an instrument with plenty of playing miles on it, and plenty more to go. Perfect for faster tempos, the 12"-16" compound radius ebony fingerboard hosts 22 jumbo frets and white dot inlays. For regularly touring musicians, a heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel is a must, allowing for quick and convenient neck relief tweaks.
The humbucking Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 pickup bridge and single-coil Seymour Duncan Custom Flat Strat SSL-6 middle and Custom Flat Strat SSL-6 RWRP neck pickups are mounted directly to the body for increased vibration transfer. This powerful pickup trio produces aggressive harmonics in the bridge position for distinguished blues and metal runs, and the perfect blend of heightened output and springy Stratocaster attitude… read more in the middle and neck.
Extensive tonal variations are on top with a five-way blade pickup switch, volume control and a no-load tone control that operates like a standard tone control from positions one through nine, and removes itself from the circuit at position ten for transparent sound, letting the full natural voice of the guitar shine through. Dive to rumbling depths or add a well-placed rising harmonic without sacrificing your tuning with the Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo bridge system.
Designed with style in mind, the Pro-Mod San Dimas Style 1 HSS FRE Sassafras comes in a rich Satin Black finish with black hardware.

I have bought a lot of guitars fro zZounds. This one was by far the worst setup I have ever seen on ANY guitar from any store. Don’t get me wrong, the guitar itself can be set up to be great, for about $150. The E and A strings were laying ON the bridge pickup. Ok its a Floyd Rose, maybe the string just needed to tightened to pull the floating tremolo up. Nope. Nothing in my expertise was able to fix this. I called my luthier, and told me to bring it in and he would see what needed to be done. I am shocked that Zzounds sent a guitar out for delivery in this condition.
Sound
Unplayable. Plan on spending money to get it playable. Am I supposed to send it out to the manufacturer for weeks to get a playable guitar?
Features
Not in playable condition. An embarrassment.
Ease of Use
Impossible in its current state.
Quality
Yes
Manufacturer Support
Its brand new I should nit have too.
