Mahogany Body with Distinctive Vanguard "V" Shape

The guitar’s Vanguard "V" body shape combines bold visual character with solid tonal foundations. Crafted from mahogany, the body delivers the warmth, sustain and focused midrange response that heavy guitar tones rely on. Its solidbody construction enhances note definition under high gain while maintaining strong resonance for rhythm and lead playing alike. Finished in a striking candy apple red gloss, the instrument commands attention onstage while highlighting the sharp lines of the Vanguard design. The result is a guitar that balances aggressive aesthetics with the tonal depth and durability required for modern metal performance.

Slim "C" Maple Neck and Ebony Fingerboard

A fast and comfortable neck profile is essential for technical guitar playing, and this signature model is built with that in mind. The maple neck features a Slim "C" profile that supports quick position shifts and fluid lead work across the entire fingerboard. With a 24.724" scale length and 24 frets, the ebony fingerboard offers smooth playability and articulate note attack for complex riffs, tapping passages and extended solos. The fingerboard is accented with dot inlays along with a distinctive Day of the Dead owl inlay at the 12th fret, giving the instrument a visual nod to Charlie Parra’s identity and artistic style.

EMG 57/66 Active Humbuckers for Modern Metal Tone

At the core of this guitar’s voice is a powerful active pickup configuration designed for high-output performance. The EMG 57 bridge pickup delivers tight lows and aggressive bite for rhythm parts that cut through dense mixes, while the EMG 66 neck pickup provides clarity and smooth sustain for expressive leads. This HH configuration is paired with a straightforward master volume control layout, allowing players to focus on performance without unnecessary complexity. The result is a versatile tonal platform capable of delivering everything from articulate cleans to the saturated distortion tones favored in modern metal.

Reliable Hardware and Refined Attention to Detail

Stable hardware ensures dependable performance whether practicing, recording or performing live. A LockTone tune-o-matic bridge paired with a LockTone stopbar tailpiece provides solid string anchoring and precise intonation, while mini die-cast tuning machines maintain reliable tuning stability. A Graph Tech nut supports smooth tuning response and consistent sustain across all six strings. Signature touches—including Charlie Parra’s engraved truss rod cover and the guitar’s distinctive fingerboard inlay—reinforce the instrument’s connection to the artist while giving players a visually striking instrument built for real-world use.
