Charvette By Charvel Model 170 Electric Guitar

Used Charvette 170 Electric Guitar

The Charvette 170 is a classic early-’90s shred-style electric guitar built during the height of the high-performance guitar era. Manufactured between 1991–1992, the 170 combines sleek styling, fast playability, and rock-ready hardware in a straightforward and aggressive design perfect for hard rock and metal players.

Featuring an offset double-cutaway body and bolt-on maple neck, the Charvette 170 offers fast access across all 22 frets and comfortable upper-register playability. The rosewood fingerboard with white dot inlays provides a familiar feel, while the six-in-line standard peghead keeps the look clean and classic.

This model is equipped with a double-locking vibrato system for expressive dive bombs and stable tuning during aggressive playing styles. Black hardware completes the unmistakable early-’90s aesthetic.

The stacked coil/humbucker Charvel pickup delivers punchy output with plenty of sustain and bite, controlled through a simple single volume knob and 3-way selector switch for easy tonal control without unnecessary clutter.
