Why not order something custom? Thats what I did.

I know....I say find me a purple guitar, everyone sends ideas and I just keep pushing back with " don't like the headstock" or "pickup config"....
These picky people are so annoying ha!
I do appreciate the ideas and actually that Jackson soloist is a very close candidate. Plus this conversation pulled out your experience with the Adrian Smith which (in green) is a possibility too....AND you have cemented my love of Charvels
Yes. If Fender ever made a super strat it would be a Charvel.
Let's not forget my Lambo Orange Charvel too.
With inflation so high, I am stuck doing "rerun" pictures.

Nearly......if only it was HH config...I know Im picky
Middle pickups are in the way for the pick.
Don't understand why Ibanez insist on them on most of their guitars and on mine too.

Is that an Electromatic? I had one ( a white falcon type) and it was fantastic.....BUT.....I bought a full blown Falcon and that is amazing.
So if you do ever fancy going the whole hog, I fully endorse it, but these guitars are great too...hope you enjoy it!!!
It´s a streamliner, the more affordable, but really nice line. I like it

I think that's my Fav of yours....really nice!! My actual fav colour is Orange, purple is second but you don;t see many orange guitars. I do like the Amber DK24 Charvel though....its another possibility...

Schecter does it as well

Thanks for all the inputs from you all. Truely some fab ideas and some ones that I will eventually go with no doubt, but....
I've pulled the trigger on a Charvel Purple Phaze....I knew where there were 2 for sale, 1 has sold, so started to panick that I'd miss the chance, so I've gone for it.
Messaged my wife, she will kill me....
I will post once the retro fitted trem is added....

Hallelujah! Miracles can happen. Now we'll start working on your Orange Charvel....

Write a song for her with the new guitar. With my wife it works quite well...

If the worse happen we might see that guitar on your coffin.
If so can I have the guitar after that?

Given my song writing skills it will probably make it worse..

So my message was basically " Sorry to ask by text but I want to buy a guitar and the one I want has come up second hand hence I want to jump on it, is that OK? Is £500..."
Her response was "Yes OK! But FFS!!!!".... She is fab!

Tell the truth, did you send her the note asking permission before or after you committed to the buy?

Honestly I sent the message before, but didn't get a response so ordered it. Technically I asked before but didn't get permission before I pulled the trigger..
In my defense it's a deposit and if she had a real issue with it, I could have pulled out....
When she got home and we went for a walk she said " so, this new guitar, why?" My response was quite pathetic....it went along the lines of " Erm...what can I say...I just fancied it... " She can see through any other BullS*#t so I don;t try to make up any cover stories!
She is ace!
Anyway, I will post pics when I get it and then pics after I've had the Gotoh Floyd fitted.
I also noticed that the trem version of the Purple Phase is not a DK24, its a 22 fret so I'm even happier as I wanted 24 frets - I had not noticed that!
Definitely worked out better...Im also going to put a Bareknuckle Holy Diver in the neck as well.

You wanted 24 frets and are happier that the neck has 22 frets???
If I want to buy a guitar my wife will ask me what guitar is it? Does it have a nice color? I do what I want to do with my money and she does the same. As long as we pay and share 50/50 for the bills, gas, food etc. I'm lucky.

Sorry, I'm not being very clear
The Charvel Purple Phaze came in 2 variants - fixed bridge or with a Floyd. I thought that was the only difference but the fixed bridge is 24 and Floyd equipped 22 ( I thought they were both DK24's). Interestingly I watched a couple of reviews which referenced both but didn't mention they are actually different guitars with the same finish.
I had originally hoped to get a Floyd bridge one but couldn't find one on the premise it would avoid all the routing/remedial work. The only ones I could find second hand were fixed bridge, which is what I bought (24 fret).
My point was, this has turned out to be lucky (even though I'm having to retro fit a Floyd) because I just hadn't noticed the difference in the frets...so I could have bought a 22, luckily I bought a 24, but more by accident than design..

A quick question: I've been offered a ridiculously good Deal on a Reverend Charger 290, almost new, and am about to pull the trigger. Anything speaking against it? Have no experience with this brand.
