Charvel Guitars - PM SC1 Prashant Aswani Signature Inca Silver

Description

Renowned guitarist, producer and songwriter Prashant Aswani has long mesmerized audiences with his distinctive guitar voice, which combines a hard-hitting, aggressive playing style with unique phrasing, unbridled passion and spontaneity. Known as the "guru of groove," Aswani has honed his technical chops across almost every imaginable genre, from mainstream hard rock, pop and soul to more eclectic international fare. In addition to recording his own acclaimed solo albums and soundtracks, Aswani's impressive repertoire includes touring and recording with artists such as Greg Howe, Christina Milian, Justin Timberlake, Jose Pasillas (Incubus), Rhonda Smith (Prince) and Ronu Majumdar. Charvel honours the inimitable guitarist with the stunning all-new Prashant Aswani Signature Pro-Mod So-Cal PA28. Coined after his initials and shared birthday/wedding anniversary date, the PA28 is designed to deliver next-level performance and an incredibly versatile and ideal studio tonal range - from lush sound designs to crushing riffs and memorable melodies.

Crafted from alder for full and balanced tone, the body features a scalloped lower back bout and sculpted shredder's cut heel for enhanced comfort and unencumbered upper-fret access. The graphite-reinforced bolt-on maple neck is rock-solid, and has a 12"-radius rosewood fingerboard with comfortable rolled edges, 22 jumbo frets and 42mm Graph Tech TUSQ XL nut. The heel-mount truss rod adjustment wheel and Luminlay® side dots are additional game-changers for all touring musicians.
