Description: Up for sale, a 1997 Charvel Dinky HH DK24 limited edition model in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. Ostensibly a model made exclusively for Japanese retailer Ikebe based on the factory markings, this rare Charvel was only available to the Japanese domestic market, featuring a pair of Gotoh humbuckers, a Floyd Rose-licensed tremolo, 24-fret maple cap fretboard, and a gloss Gunmetal Gray finish. The Gotoh humbuckers comprise an LP-38 at the neck and an LP-HM at the bridge: the LP-38 is wound in the PAF range, yielding an ideal balance of smoothness, warmth, and articulation, with great harmonic bloom. The LP-HM is slightly more powerful and punchy, with focused midrange aggression and note attack, taking gain notably well. This Charvel weighs 7lbs 11oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 9-42 strings, slinky action, and accurate intonation. Neck Specs: -Wood: Maple (quartersawn) -Shape: Slender D, measuring .760” 1st fret, .855” 12th fret -Fretboard: Maple cap, 24-fret, dot inlay -Frets: Jumbo, virtually no wear -Scale Length: 25 1/2” -Nut: 1.650” (42mm), locking -Tuners: Gotoh, Charvel-branded -Serialization: Stamped on neck plate -Factory Markings: Model stamps on neck heel/pocket, heel dated 9-5-2 (9th year of Heisei era, translating to 1997) Body Specs: -Wood: Basswood -Pickups: Gotoh LP-38 (neck, meters 7.4k ohms), LP-HM (bridge, meters 8.75k) -Harness: Untouched solder, full-size Japanese pots -Hardware: Gotoh, Charvel-branded and Floyd Rose-licensed, dome-top knurled knobs The gloss Gunmetal Gray finish shows only a few light finish scratches on the back, well shy of “buckle rash,” a couple small finish chips along the body perimeter, and a few additional minor marks on the body as a whole. The neck profile retains its smooth satin finish, and there is a chip in the maple at the headstock's point. The original padded gigbag is included.
