Mod Plus Performance with Floyd Rose Fittings

Repurposing the time-trusted Mod Plus platform and outfitting it with a player-preferred collection of sturdy build materials, potent Seymour Duncan sonics, and a headlining Floyd Rose 1500 series tailpiece, the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q electric guitar from Charvel is ready for any turbulent player to take it's reins. An alder body and caramelized maple neck with graphite reinforcement rods exude durability and long-term performance, all the while a collection of deluxe Charvel appointments and die-cast tuning machines ensure pure intonation support while maintaining a sleek visual appearance on any stage. Looking for tone? The Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q has got plenty, given a Seymour Duncan humbucker duo and a seamlessly operated set of tonal controls. Take it from Sweetwater's technically adept guitarists: When it comes to shred-friendly instrumentation, the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q electric guitar reigns as one of the best.

Outstanding alder body design

Lightweight, resonant, and full of tonal life, it's no wonder why alder is such a popular tonewood among Charvel's 6-string portfolio. Utilized for the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q's body, this means less weight on your shoulders as well as supplemental tone for utmost resonance and richness during play. Additionally, a closer look at the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q's body reveals a Floyd Rose 1500 series double-locking tailpiece that, apart from servicing easy dynamic changes, dive bombs, and the like, ensures utmost intonation stability in the face of any complex jam session or stage performance. Finished and appointed with an amalgamation of high-performance Charvel hardware, Sweetwater guitarists know that Charvel meant business when designing the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q.

Durable materials supply unparalleled mobility

High-profile shredding sessions start with a maneuverable instrument — rest assured, the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q is more than equipped to handle even the most rigorous transitions with ease. It starts with a caramelized maple neck that's equipped with a hand-rubbed urethane finish and a comfortable playing profile, ensuring swift and manageable access along every fret. Likewise, a 12- to 16-inch compound radius ebony fingerboard reveals dot-style inlays and Luminlay side markers to keep your movements accurate and decisive. Complete with a sleek gloss body finish and a simple yet in-depth collection of onboard tonal controls, finding your way around the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q will become second nature within minutes.

High-octane Seymour Duncan pickup duo

Sporting sonics from vintage-inspired snaps and cleans to entirely hot-rodded humbucker power, the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q's onboard Seymour Duncan pickup duo supplies more than enough tonal diversity to manage a range of genres and play styles. Set in the neck position, a '59 SH-1N pulls from late-'50s distorted tones, pairing with the bridge's JB TB-4 to add potency and power to any sonic signature — all while maintaining a formidable pickup combo that is capable of cleaning up nicely via onboard Bourns Low Friction volume pot controls, a no-load tone knob, and a pickup selection switch. From R&B to heavy metal chugging and beyond, the Pro-Mod Plus SD1Q's Seymour Duncan pickup duo is the right pair for the job.

Why Buy Your Guitar from Sweetwater?

See how Sweetwater goes to great lengths to give you the very best online guitar buying experience.

What is Certified Open Box Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call "Certified Open Box" 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.

Certified Open Box (also known as a demo) means we’ve had it out of the box for our YouTube channel, displayed at events, tested in our studio, or maybe it was in a customer’s hands for a few days and isn’t ‘factory fresh’ as a result. Every Certified Open Box 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 Certified Open Box 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 Certified Open Box 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

Reviews

Keeping
I love everything about this guitar. This is my first caramelized maple fretboard. It is nice to play on and is inspiring to look at while playing. I love the sangria burst color. It reminds me of a Schechter Hellraiser I had years ago. The pickups are a great combination. I like playing KISS songs. At the moment I am studying Jimi Hendrix and Van Halen. It's just a wonderful guitar. A friend of mine has been laughing at me because for a year now, I have returned every guitar I have purchased. But this guitar is mine all mine. I had a Plek Pro Setup done, and I absolutely love it. There were complications with the Plek Pro Setup but Sweetwater followed through, and I am now happy to say, I finally have a guitar I will not be returning to the store.
