GUITAR SHOWCASE 2021: Introducing the Charvel Rick Graham Signature MJ DK24 2PT CM.

Rick Graham built a rabid fanbase at home and abroad with his stunningly deft chops, which range from delicate chordal passages of gentle beauty to furious onslaughts of overdriven virtuosity and any musical shade in between. 

From the classical guitar strains of his youth at London’s Guildhall School of Music and Drama to his imaginative present day solo flights on YouTube to acclaimed guest spots with Polyphia, Plini, Andy James, Jason Richardson and others, Graham’s intense musical mastery has mesmerized many far and wide.  

Stylishly exquisite

Stylishly exquisite in a Celeste finish with chrome hardware, this Made in Japan Rick Graham Signature MJ DK24 2PT CM model blends Charvel’s unparalleled legacy of designing high performance instruments with an assortment of Graham’s preferred top-end features. 

It features a basswood Dinky® body with a scalloped lower back bout and sculpted shredder’s cut heel engineered for comfortable upper fret access.

The bolt-on caramelized maple neck has graphite reinforcement for rock solid stability, satin finish on the back for smooth playability and heel mount truss rod adjustment wheel for quick and easy neck relief tweaks. 

Its 12”-16” compound radius caramelized maple fingerboard ups the ante for both style and stability, with 24 jumbo stainless-steel frets, 4mm crème dot inlays, Luminlay® side dots and Graph Tech® TUSQ® XL nut.
