Charvel Guthrie Govan Signature Solidbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:- Plays like butter - and so easy on the eyes!
- Charvel Custom pickups deliver an immense range of tone
- Take-no-prisoners tone and performance
Charvel's Guthrie Govan signature guitar is a delight for the senses. It looks incredible, plays like butter, and can sound just like Guthrie. The lightweight basswood body sports a gorgeous bird's-eye maple top, with a thin clear matte finish and a specially contoured heel without a neck plate to impede your high fretting. The bolt-on quartersawn flame maple neck is put through Charvel's caramelizing process to make it feel and sound much better. And the 24-fret compound-radius fingerboard is an absolute love affair to play.
Charvel Custom pickups deliver an immense range of toneThe HSH pickup configuration is quite popular among Sweetwater electric guitarists for the tonal dexterity it affords. On the Charvel Guthrie Govan Signature, three Charvel Custom MFB pickups (two humbuckers flanking a single-coil) plus 5-way switching give you the same expansive tonal range and dynamic sensitivity that Mr. Govan demands. Two notched control knobs (master volume and master tone) with brass position markers are set into the body within easy reach of your pinky.
Take-no-prisoners tone and performanceGuthrie Govan's Signature guitar rocks classic Charvel hot-rod style, which was born in Southern California more than three decades ago. That style is probably why Guthrie selected Charvel to work with him on the design of this no-compromise, high-performance axe. Start with a classic, uber-comfy body style, add an alarmingly fast neck with impeccable fretwork, rolled fingerboard edges, scorching pickups, a rock-solid whammy bridge, and killer looks, and you get an amazing instrument from top to bottom. Get your hands on the Guthrie Govan Signature and you won't let go.
