For sale is a Charvel DK24 in burgundy mist. The guitar is in excellent playing condition, with all electronics and hardware stock and fully functional. Guitar weight is 7.3 lbs. (7 lbs 5 oz).
The body finish is actually a semi-gloss as I polished the entire body with auto polish due to isolated shiny spots above the bridge and below the strings due to hand and play wear, which is quite common with satin finishes.
There are a few dings and scratches(see pictures, difficult to photograph). There is some pick wear in the finish on the top of the body below the 1st string/between the pickups(see photo).
The guitar neck is straight and the jumbo frets have a bit of wear in the first five frets(see pictures)-this does not affect playability. The neck profile is a tad thicker than most DK24s I’ve played, 0.79″ thick at the first fret, 0.84″ at the twelfth fret, with a 1-11/16″ nut(very similar to the 2008-10 USA Charvels). The guitar is strung with GHS GBXL Boomers .009-.042, with pretty low action. I did not remove the string tree, just no longer run the 1st/2nd strings under it-this greatly improved the tuning stability.
Price is $679 with $30 shipping to continental US only. Guitar comes with a new, padded gig bag and will be shipped with whammy bar and plenty of packing material, double-boxed for protection.
