Charvel Pro-Mod So-Cal SC1 Style 1 FR RW—Modern Super-Strat Speed & Power

The Charvel Pro-Mod So-Cal SC1 Style 1 FR RW Snow White brings the legendary hot-rodded Super-Strat platform into the modern era with premium hardware and player-focused ergonomics. Designed for guitarists chasing uncompromising speed, tonal flexibility, and reliability, this instrument fuses Southern California heritage with state-of-the-art engineering. Every detail, from the compound radius fingerboard to the double-locking tremolo, is crafted for expressive, high-energy playing at any level.

Standout Features for Demanding Players

What sets the Pro-Mod So-Cal SC1 apart is the mix of a 12"–16" compound radius rosewood fingerboard with rolled edges and dual Seymour Duncan Distortion humbuckers. Expanded tonal options come courtesy of the innovative push/pull coil split and no-load tone control, so players can move from searing leads to crisp cleans with ease.

Neck Comfort and Speed—Effortless Playability

Fluid movement across the fretboard is possible thanks to a hand-rubbed satin urethane finish and a robust bolt-on maple design with graphite reinforcement. The compound radius fingerboard, transitioning from 304.8 mm to 406.4 mm, lets you glide between chords and solos with precision.

• Fingerboard Radius: 12"–16" (304.8–406.4 mm) — smooth bends and rapid runs are easily achieved
• Frets: 22 Jumbo — easy string bends, no choking
• Neck Material: Maple with graphite reinforcement — retains stability in changing climates
• For those who value stability, this neck construction offers a road-ready feel that endures tour after tour.

Tonal Power and Versatility—For the Modern Performer

Loaded with Seymour Duncan Distortion TB-6 (bridge) and SH-6N (neck) pickups, this model provides saturated leads and punchy rhythm tones. Players can reach a wide palette of sounds via the three-way blade switch, push/pull coil split, and a no-load tone circuit for clarity even at high gain.

• Bridge Pickup: Seymour Duncan Distortion TB-6 — delivers aggressive highs and tight lows
• Neck Pickup: Seymour Duncan Distortion SH-6N — produces fat, harmonically rich output
• Controls: Volume (push/pull coil split), no-load tone, 3-way blade switch — instant access to a variety of tones

Stage-Ready Hardware—Reliability and Expression

Every component is built for both the road and studio. The Floyd Rose 1000 Series double-locking tremolo is fully recessed, supporting extreme pitch effects while keeping tuning in check. Alder body construction and a black hardware finish supply a classic look and lasting strength.
