Dead head


If you visit the current Charvel web page. you will only see the Fender-esque headstock design. The pointy version is now extinct. We have been subconsciously fed with the desire to own a Fender. Even for a more outgoing aggressive music genre that is best represented by sharp edges, we made a compromise. Duplantier, Jim Root & Mike Martin, among other metal heavyweights, are treading this path so it adds relevance should your commitments be questioned. The Fender headstock outline is an iconic design, it screams Fender even if there's no 'Fender' on it. If you own a pointy headstock Charvel, consider holding on to the stuff that matters.

PS: We all know Fender owns Charvel, yes?
