Explosive Tone and High-speed Playability

Loaded with a trio of high-octane Seymour Duncan pickups, the Charvel Pro-Mod DK22 SSS 2PT CM solidbody electric guitar is poised for sonic excellence. The ultra-smooth Gotoh Custom 510 tremolo bridge is ready to deliver expressive bends and flutters, with impressive tuning stability ensured by the Graph Tech TUSQ nut and die-cast locking tuners. And the Speed Neck profile with hand-rubbed satin finish and jumbo frets is ready for your most technically-demanding fretwork. While its heritage is firmly rooted in hard rock, the Charvel Pro-Mod DK22 SSS 2PT CM offers tonal versatility and playability that any player can appreciate.

Seymour Duncan pickups deliver high-output tone

You'll have no trouble getting a huge sound out of your amplifier with the Charvel Pro-Mod DK22 SSS 2PT CM. In the neck and middle positions, you'll find Seymour Duncan SSL-6 single-coil pickups, with the middle pickup reverse wound/reverse polarity for hum-canceling performance when combined with the neck pickup. The SSL-6 is an overwound pickup that captures a nice balance of punch and clarity, offering the traditional articulation of single coils with a bit of extra girth. They're a great match for the SHR-1b Hot Rails humbucker in the bridge position, which guitarists at Sweetwater love for its enhanced midrange and impressive sustain.

Fast, stable, comfortable reinforced maple neck

The Pro-Mod DK22’s neck and fretboard are designed to meet the demands of the technical player. The Charvel Speed Neck is built from two pieces of caramelized maple and reinforced with graphite 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 body. Fretside, the compound-radius fretboard flattens out to a near-flat 16" in the upper registers and comes fitted with 22 jumbo frets for maximum speed and control. Rolled fingerboard edges keep your thumbs and fingers comfortable during play.

Charvel Pro-Mod DK22 SSS 2PT CM Electric Guitar Features:

  • Iconic Jackson Dinky alder body with deep cutaways provides fantastic access to the entire fretboard
  • Caramelized maple Speed Neck is fast and stable
  • Heel-mounted spoke wheel facilitates speedy truss rod adjustments
  • 12"–16" compound-radius, rolled-edge fingerboard is built for speed and comfort
  • Gotoh Custom 510 tremolo bridge for ultra-smooth dives, bends, and flutters
  • Seymour Duncan SSL-6 single-coils and SHR-1b Hot Rails humbucker offer a wide sonic palette to explore
  • Die-cast locking tuners for rock-solid tuning stability

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!

Amazing Guitar

I received this guitar today via Fed Ex Ground. I really can't believe how nice this guitar is, in terms of design, build quality, finish, playability, sound, etc. I'm a 50-year-old guy who's been playing since he was 12. I came of age in the 80s and I never got into the hair metal stuff but always worshiped Eddie Van Halen. So I've always wanted a Superstrat and I knew this model was for me upon its introduction. I like it because of its shred capability but it's also versatile enough for other styles including jazz and blues. It joins my Yamaha SG2000, my Fender Custom Shop Tele, and my Martin Custom Shop 00-DB Sinker Mahogany. I mention those very special guitars only to emphasize my belief that this Charvel, made in Mexico, is every bit as solid as anything in my collection. It's worth noting that it does not come with a case. I did a combo purchase with the Jackson molded hard shell case for Dinky/Soloist models. It fits like a glove. I'd be remiss in not thanking my sales engineer, Joel Helton. His knowledge and professionalism is unparalleled.
