Charvel Socal ID

Post by Bitbull »

Hey guys,
I’m trying to ID my Charvel to the actual model and specs but on their website I can’t find this specific model with HH FR and single master switch.

I’m pretty sure it’s a 2012 made in USA socal S1 with maple fb. Any clues where I can find the full specs?

I recall a 'JCF' forum with all serials. Found my old Charvel on there along with a factory pic.

Awesome thanks all, I think I got to the bottom of it and I also found the original Hot Rod guitar manual but this doesn't have any info, just generic info.
