Nice deal there! 
 
A band that makes money probably has a printing press in the back of the van. 

I got a chance to play it...all the strings were loose when it arrived,
I'm sure to keep from having tension on the neck during shipping.
Once it was tuned I checked the intonation and it was right on the money...
You certainly don't find that very often.  The Neck is nice...very "fast"
and "playable". And the action is awesome!  

Quite content...but I'll know more after putting it through
it's paces tonite at rehearsal...

I saw that one in my newsfeed - Gorgeous guitar. Charvel do make a few guitars I'd be curious to try, and they certainly have a few I'd grab if I could. But it's just not in the cards right now, and I really don't need another electric.
 
Enjoy yours! :)

Thanx Rain!

I'll be putting it through it's paces in a little bit...
I'm off to do what I do when I do it...LOL

Hope you enjoy it Larry!

Thanx Mike!  I'll do my best!

Ok, after a thorough workout with it...
It's different...it has a much different sound (as it should)
then my MTP-375...which also has 81/85,
but the M has a carved curly Maple Top...(in my profile Pic)
while the Desolation has a carved Mahogany Top
so I'm sure that's a lot of it...I'll have to get used to 
it....but I'm liken' it...just have to get "dialed in" but
pretty much there after playing all night with it, but still
not 100%...

Congratulations go out to you Larry on your new guitar

Thanx Kenny!!!
