Charvel Pro-Mod Plus San Dimas Style 1 FR MN: Ultimate Playability for Modern Guitarists

The Charvel Pro-Mod Plus San Dimas Style 1 FR MN Sangria Burst introduces the legendary San Dimas concept to today's performance standards, boasting a suite of upgrades tailored for advanced players. Designed for speed, accuracy, and tonal flexibility, this Super-ST instrument merges a caramelized maple neck with a compound-radius fingerboard for comfort and technical prowess. Praised for its precise Mexican craftsmanship, this model meets the demands of both stage professionals and studio musicians.

Innovative Features Elevate the Playing Experience

What sets this instrument apart is the heat-treated caramelized maple neck, enhancing resonance and long-term stability. Deep sculpted neck heel and matching headstock not only bring visual appeal but also support ergonomic hand positions. Players who utilize the Floyd Rose 1500 Series tremolo—with stainless steel screws—experience reliable performance even during aggressive playing.

Fast Neck and Effortless Upper Fret Access

Engineered for smooth play, the neck's slim D profile and rolled edges support rapid shifts and precise fingerwork. The deep cutaway, along with the sculpted heel, gives technical players the reach needed for intricate solos and advanced techniques.

• Neck Material: Caramelized maple — delivers stability and a slick feel for fast playing
• Fingerboard Radius: 305–406 mm (12–16") — compound design for comfortable chording and precise soloing
• Wide bends and controlled legato are achievable, thanks to 22 jumbo frets designed for expressive playing styles.

Signature Tone: Seymour Duncan Direct-Mount Pickups

Tonal versatility defines this model, featuring direct-mounted Seymour Duncan humbuckers. JB TB-4 at the bridge brings aggressive punch for rock and metal, while '59 SH-1N at the neck delivers smooth, vintage-inspired cleans. A five-way switch offers a wide array of nuanced tones, making the guitar adaptable across genres.

• Pickups: Seymour Duncan JB TB-4 (bridge), '59 SH-1N (neck) — from searing leads to mellow cleans
• Switching: 5-way blade — grants broad tonal palette
• Precise and responsive adjustments are at your fingertips with the volume (Bourns low-friction pot) and No-Load tone controls.

Hardware and Construction: Reliability Meets Aesthetics

Chosen for both durability and looks, the Floyd Rose 1500 tremolo with locking nut ensures stable tuning through intensive whammy use. Chrome hardware and the vivid Sangria Burst finish make the instrument visually captivating. Transport is safe and convenient with the included branded gig bag.

• Bridge: Floyd Rose 1500 Series double-locking tremolo — top-tier pitch modulation and tuning security
