I’m not Scott, but I approve of the above link.

Look forward to seeing the end result!

Very cool, thanks 😃👌

I'm not Rob, but Gary Kahler had the Brass Factory and they still have or make that stuff: https://kahlerusa.com/?s=brass+factory&post_type=product&dgwt_wcas=1

Very cool 😃👌... Hey Rob, do you remember the name of that company you used for the Charvel Pre-pro brass bridges and stuff?

Hey! Waitjussaminnit..!

I like this idea... thanks! 😃👌

I would go sonic blue nitro. Or one of the rare occasions black might be cool. Finish check it… crème rings and a nice brass Charvel nos style bridge. Phenolic nut. That would kick aaashhh.

whats an unmistakeable soupcan?

Big thanks to @stonge for facilitating this FB Marketplace transaction and shipping to me. I wanted a small/light dinker amp that is easy to move and this one (4w/10” speaker) sounds like it is going to fit the bill. You can’t tell from the pic but it is roughly 18x12x8. One EL84 two 12AX7 tubes. For “bedroom” playing I have mostly settled on LPD Eighty7 into clean amp in case anyone cares lol. Or headphones.

No Affiliation Never even heard of such a unique spec, and not sure how it would sound compared to stock (spruce over hog). Cool! https://reverb.com/item/99618968-hamer-custom-shop-newport-pro-2003-amber-52665-with-original-hard-case

If I didn’t just pull the trigger on a Dakota red EJ Strat I would pounce on this. Great buy — hope someone from here snags it (so I can buy it from you down the track)

Thanks for posting that here. I know Michael had been working with him for some years before that fire a couple of years ago. I hope he'll continue building.

Wow, just when I thought I'd seen most of the graphics. Each one has its own coolness to it.

Like a car wreck, I keep coming back to stare…

Plus she’s got trem spring cover and no added string tree (WTH do people do that?)

Exactly. And exactly as it would have been presented in in the fraternity house TV room, 1985, 2:00 A.M. with an unmistakable soupçon of a Columbian brush fire in the air. Absolute and completely made up but presented with such complete and unassailable confidence that no one would ever question the veracity. Absent Internet, one could typically get away with it. 🤣

From his son Michael: As many of you already know, my father, Wayne R. Charvel, passed away peacefully on Sunday. My father was unexpectedly rushed to the emergency room. It was completely unexpected, and everything happened so quickly. I immediately flew to Arizona to be with him, and our family was by his side. On Sunday morning, while I was holding his hand, my dad peacefully went home to be with the Lord. It still doesn't seem real. Many of you knew him as a legendary guitar builder, craftsman, and musician. I was blessed to simply call him Dad. Of everything he accomplished in his life, what meant the most to me was that he was a loving father. Our only focus was spending every possible moment with him and supporting one another as a family. Because of that, we weren't able to let everyone know right away, and I apologize for the delay. Thank you to everyone who has called, texted, emailed, and shared your prayers and kind words. They have meant more than you know. I may not be able to respond to every message for a while, but please know that I truly appreciate each and every one of them. Please continue to keep my mom, our family, and everyone whose lives Dad touched in your prayers. Rest in peace, Dad. I love you, and I will miss you every day.
