What is the difference between a high-end production guitar and a Custom Shop model?

High-end production guitars (such as PRS Core Custom 24 or Gibson USA Standard) utilize advanced CNC precision combined with hand-finishing in standard production runs. Custom Shop models feature lower batch volumes, hand-selected tonewoods, custom hand-wound pickups, period-accurate construction, and master luthier voicing.

Why should I avoid drop-shipped high-end electric guitars?

Drop-shipped guitars are dispatched directly from logistics warehouses without unboxing or inspection. Without a bench inspection and 5-point setup by an in-house guitar technician, you risk receiving an unplayable instrument affected by climate shifts during storage and transit.

What does MusicStreet's 5-point setup include?

Every instrument sold through MusicStreet undergoes a comprehensive 5-point bench inspection: truss rod and neck relief calibration, nut slot depth check, bridge radius and intonation alignment, pickup height and electronic circuit testing, and fretboard conditioning.

Can I try boutique and custom shop guitars in person at MusicStreet?

Yes. MusicStreet operates a showroom at 10 Chequers Court, Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, where players can test premium PRS, Fender, and Gibson models through high-end amplifiers in a dedicated testing environment.

Featuring ultra-fast caramelized maple speed necks with rolled fingerboard edges, 12-to-16 inch compound radius fretboards, Seymour Duncan pickups, and double-locking Floyd Rose or Gotoh 510 tremolos.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Charvel San Dimas and So-Cal models?

Charvel San Dimas models feature direct-mounted humbuckers into the body wood for aggressive punch, while So-Cal models feature pickguard-mounted pickups with a more vintage hot-rod aesthetic.

Why do Charvel guitars use compound radius fretboards?

A 12-to-16 inch compound radius is rounder near the nut for comfortable chord gripping and flattens out in higher registers to allow effortless, choke-free string bends.

Are all Charvel guitars set up before dispatch?

Yes! At MusicStreet, every guitar goes through our in-house workshop. Our experienced technicians inspect the neck alignment, action, intonation, frets, and electronics so your Charvel arrives playing at its absolute best straight out of the box.

What is the difference between the Charvel San Dimas and So-Cal series?

While both feature hot-rodded modified body shapes and fast compound-radius necks, the San Dimas models feature direct-mounted pickups with no pickguard for a sleeker aesthetic, while So-Cal models sport a classic full pickguard with top-mounted electronics.
