Two guitar icons come together in the Charvel Pro-Mod DK24. The classic Jackson Dinky body, here topped with vibrant quilted maple, is substantial in the hands and contoured against the body, while the Charvel two-piece reinforced maple Speed Neck remains rock solid as it ages. Charvel's familiar 12"-16" compound-radius maple fretboard flattens out nicely in the upper registers, giving technical players the speed and expression they need for bends, runs, and vibrato. Despite its aggressive looks you'll find a vast sonic range to explore, via twin Seymour Duncan humbucking pickups routed through a five-way position selector. Factor in the Floyd Rose 1000 recessed tremolo tailpiece for expressive bends and dives, and it's obvious the Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 guitar is primed for explosive playability.





Iconic Jackson body style





Grover Jackson's Dinky body style is to hard rock and metal what the Camaro is to drag racing. Contoured and classic, the Dinky provides the hard-line visuals, comfortable carry, and unlimited high-fret access that modern players demand.





Sonically diverse Seymour Duncan pickup set





If you're a single-guitar performer like many of us at Sweetwater, you'll particularly love the Pro-Mod DK24's diverse tonal potential. For drive, the Full Shred SH-10 bridge humbucker packs a big, focused low end and about as much sustain as you can get from a passive alnico pickup. And when you need to clean up, the APH-1 neck humbucker is a breath of fresh air with its warm sound and moderate output.





Floyd Rose locking tremolo





The recessed Floyd Rose tremolo bridge sits nice and flush with the DK24's body to provide sonic texture when you need it, and a relatively low profile when you don't. This double-locking tremolo system keeps tuning stable, even for all-out dive bombs.

Fast, stable, comfortable reinforced maple neck





The Pro-Mod DK24's neck and fretboard are designed to meet the demands of the technical player. The Charvel Speed Neck is built from two pieces of maple and graphite reinforced for a lifetime of rock-solid dependability. A heel-mounted spoke wheel facilitates speedy truss rod adjustments, while four heavy-duty bolts provide superior sound transmission from the neck to body. Fretside, the compound-radius maple fretboard flattens out to an arrow-straight 16" in the upper registers and comes fitted with 24 jumbo frets for maximum speed and control. Rolled fingerboard edges keep thumbs and fingers comfortable during play.
