This Modern Metal Machine Delivers Maximum Aggression

The Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HH HT electric guitar represents the legendary company's commitment to bring modern metal players the finest in design, appointments, and playability. This streamlined solidbody features Jackson's "superior access heel" around the neck joint, offering unparalleled comfort when playing at the highest frets. The bolt-on maple neck with graphite reinforcement features a spoke wheel for easy truss rod adjustments — a favorite feature among guitarists here at Sweetwater. The Pro-Mod DK24 also comes with a pair of Seymour Duncan humbuckers that deliver all the serious, metallic tone you can handle. Finally, a Charvel HT6 string-through-body hardtail bridge maximizes sustain and provides stellar tuning stability during even the most aggressive play.

Diverse Seymour Duncan pickup set

The pair of Seymour Duncans in the Pro-Mod DK24 affords a tonal potential that will have you exploring diverse sonic landscapes for hours. For drive, the Full Shred SH-10 bridge humbucker packs a big, focused low end and about as much sustain as you can get from a passive alnico pickup. And when you need to clean up, the Alnico II Pro APH-1N neck humbucker is a breath of fresh air. This pickup boasts great touch dynamics and a sweet, bluesy top end that’s perfect for true cleans and those just-on-the-edge-of-breaking-up tones that add grit to your sound. In addition, 5-way switching gives you access to a myriad of irresistible sonic textures.

Fast, stable, comfortable reinforced maple neck

The Pro-Mod DK24's maple neck and ebony fingerboard are spec'd to meet the demands of the technical player. The Charvel Speed Neck is graphite reinforced for a lifetime of rock-solid dependability. A heel-mounted spoke wheel facilitates speedy truss rod adjustments, while four heavy-duty bolts provide superior sound transmission from the neck to the body. The compound-radius fingerboard flattens out to a flatter 16 inches in the upper registers, and it comes fitted with 24 jumbo frets for maximum speed and control.

Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HH HT Electric Guitar Features:

  • Iconic Dinky body shape with comfortable contours
  • Heel-mounted spoke wheel facilitates speedy truss rod adjustments
  • 12–16-inch compound-radius fingerboard is built for speed and comfort
  • Full Shred SH-10 bridge humbucker packs a tight low end and loads of sustain
  • Alnico II Pro APH-1N neck humbucker adds touch dynamics and a sweet, bluesy top end
  • 5-way switching for a wide range of tones

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

See how Sweetwater goes to great lengths to give you the very best online guitar buying experience. From our online Guitar Gallery that allows you to see and select the exact instrument you want to our 55-point Inspection process and our in-house guitar techs, we take the guesswork out of buying your next guitar online.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

Note: While demo items from Charvel do not include the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation warranty, you can shop with confidence knowing that this item is backed and covered by Sweetwater’s 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Fantastic guitar for the price

I'd been eyeing one of these because of the cool look, the simplicity, the locking tuners and the apparent light weight. A week ago I happened upon a used one a a local store and couldn't resist. While I didn't go with Sweetwater for this purchase -- I'll be back soon, I promise! -- I figured I'd write a review nonetheless. And I'm really happy with this guitar, for the price it's an incredible value. The light weight is real and I very much appreciate it. The overall quality is spectacular for price, and really even regardless of price. The Charvel locking tuners are great. The bridge and pots are solid. There's no filter/bypass push-pull kind of thing - and I was looking for that, as I find those annoying. The neck is slim which I also like. The neck wood seems almost completely unfinished which felt just a tad unexpected at first but I haven't had any sticking or speed challenges. The frets aren't stainless steel (I'm not sure exactly what they are) but no issues. The pickups and guitar overall sound good. (I play quite a lot but I've never been one to overly notice the difference between pickups.) And as I already said, it's nice a light.

I see the writeup describes this guitar as an aggressive metal machine. I don't find it such at all, and I'm glad I didn't read that before seeing the guitar or I don't think I'd have bought it as I was not looking for a shred machine. And this isn't one. I'm definitely a fan.
Music background: Long-time rock player.

Rated 5/5

5 stars

I've had this beauty for over a week now and I absolutely love it. It played great right out of the box/case, no adjustments needed. I just tweaked the tuning and it was ready to go. This guitar is a real joy to play (that neck) and stunning to look at! Did I mention the neck... Tone wise, I find the Full Shred/Alnico II Pro to be a nice break from the standard JB/59 you find in similar models. My one and only comment - reverse headstock. Something about this guitar just screams reverse strat headstock. A big thank you to my Sweetwater Sales Rep Chris for helping me navigate towards this guitar.
