DISC Charvel Pro Mod DK Satchel Signature, Satin Green Bengal Overview
Let's all party. The Charvel Pro Mod DK Satchel Signature guitar has all the features which Satchel himself would want on his own jazzy, outrageous guitar. As the guitarist for Steel Panther, he has somewhat of a reputation for his 80s style expert shredding and incredibly risqué costumes on stage. His signature is an embodiment of both these qualities, showcasing some of the finest guitar craftsmanship and playability as well as exuding vibrance. It has the legendary Fishman Fluence Classic pickups in the neck and bridge positions, giving it that unmistakable vintage humbucker tone along with multiple other voicings possible using the push/pull switch.
Take to the stage. With this unbelievably funky shred machine at your side, you'll be able to turn any bland live show into a full blown party. The two piece maple neck provides a level of comfort which would make any professional guitarist happy to play for hours on end. An alder body creates a lovely resonance, whilst the maple fretboard gives you all the brightness and sustain you could wish for. Satchel designed this guitar so that you, too, can bring a level of Steel Panther-esque glamour to your licks, the likes of which the world has never seen. If one thing is for sure, it's that you'll have the time of your life playing this Satchel Signature.

The Satchel experience. He's been making a huge name for himself as the guitarist in Steel Panther, and now Satchel is celebrated for his immense skill and stylistic flair. His rhythm licks are both heavy and groovy, whilst his fast lead licks are fat, melodic, and full of flavour. As such, the DK Satchel Signature is built to accommodate both heavy and groovy licks, whilst also looking as good as it sounds.
Flawless Fishmans
World renowned. Fishman Fluence pickups are almost as famous as Satchel himself, offering a vast array of tones for you to experiment with. In the DK Satchel Signature, the Fishman Fluence Classic PRF in the bridge will give your rhythm licks every bit of crunch they need for that all out, hair-metal tone. With the gain on lower levels, it will purr with articulation and a vintage style crunch, whilst with higher gain it is capable of screaming with as much saturation and power as Michael Starr. The Classic PRF neck pickup offers a warmer lead tone which is exceptional for emphasising melodies and shooting through solos.
All the options. The three way pickup selector gives you the ability to easily switch between each pickup. In addition, the push/pull control on the volume knob also lets you change the voicing of each Fishman pickup. Once voice will emit a more vintage style sound for each pickup, whilst the second will give them more punch and hard hitting clarity. With these, you can effortlessly write inspired riffs which contain tonnes of tonal variety and flair.
A Naughty Neck
Professional standard. With a two piece maple construction, the neck of this model is enough to make Satchel go green with envy. It has a hand-rubbed urethane finish for exceptional manoeuvrability and speed of playing, so you can shred through your solos with unrivalled ease. It also offers a bright resonance and plenty of sustain in order to give each note you play that rich fullness which works so well with dirty tones.
Maple Madness
Your pathway to perfection. A maple fretboard complements the maple neck incredibly well, serving as a blank canvas for you to create your punchy riffs. It also offers bright resonance and sustain, whilst giving your fingers the highest level of comfort and smoothness you could ever wish for. Whether you're playing on stage or in your room, you'll find that your fingers sail along each fret, allowing you to express your music with complete freedom.
Fantastic Floyd Rose
The king of vibrato. A Floyd Rose 1000 Series Double-Locking Tremolo bridge allows the whammy bar to do its thing unrestricted. It is top-loaded, and you'll be able to use it to bend notes to ridiculous degrees with the whammy bar. Whether you want a little trill of vibrato or a full blown divebomb, you can rest assured that your tuning will always be safe with this impeccable tool at your side. The locking nut also helps to bring additional precision to your tuning retention, whilst Charvel-branded sealed die-cast tuners offer complete ease of tuning and tuning changes. Being topped off with a satin green Bengal finish, Satchel's signature is one incredible specimen with as much fiery character as the man himself.
