Hard-hitting Signature Solidbody from Charvel
The Pro-Mod Joe Duplantier San Dimas Style 2 from Charvel has been designed in collaboration with groundbreaking, boundary-pushing guitarist Joe Duplantier from Gojira. This no-nonsense, hard-hitting soildbody has the kind of design and appointments that make it ideal for heavy musical styles. The San Dimas Style 2 features an all-mahogany body that is sturdy, resonant, and beautiful onstage. The mahogany neck features an ebony fingerboard that offers incredible response, feel, and playability. And when it comes time to plug in, a pair of DiMarzio humbuckers kicks out classic hot, full humbucker tone.
PAF tone in a pair of hot humbuckers
DiMarzio has been a leader in the world of pickups for decades, and that's why Joe Duplantier has been a fan for years, as these pickups were designed to rock and rock hard night after night. The DiMarzio PAF 36th Anniversary neck pickup melds precise articulation with impressive output, delivering incredibly sweet tone and a beautiful blend of warmth and clarity. The PAF 36th Anniversary mimics the magnetic field of a 1959 Les Paul humbucker, allowing your strings to vibrate longer while yielding amazing single-coil-like definition. A 42-gauge custom-coated wire puts this pickup's frequency response right in the sweet spot. The PAF 36th is paired beautifully with the Joe Duplantier Signature DiMarzio Fortitude in the bridge. This slightly hotter pickup is also big on clarity when needed but delivers loads of crunch and growl when driven. And with a 3-position toggle that lets you isolate as well as combine these pickups, a mind-boggling array of tone-shaping options are at your fingertips.
Neck designed for speed and comfort
The San Dimas 2 features a Speed Neck with rolled fingerboard edges that make power chords and soaring riffs easy on your hand. The 22 jumbo frets along the ebony fingerboard make chording and lead playing easier and are a favorite style of fret among guitarists here at Sweetwater. The 12"–16" compound-radius fingerboard is a preferred radius among many guitarists in heavier genres as well, providing a smooth, subtle taper as you move up and down the neck. Finally, the oiled neck finish lets your hand really fly comfortably from position to position, making your playing smoother and more effortless.
