Charger - Soundcheck

Built to Be Played

Identity

The Hartwood Charger blends vintage influence with a modern sense of individuality, a guitar built for players who want familiar character without feeling tied to the past. Its chrome-covered humbuckers deliver warmth, punch, and depth, while a three-way switch and coil-tap push-pull unlock brighter, more articulate textures when the moment calls for it. Certain models also feature Hartwood’s Vibe-Roller vibrato system, adding smooth, expressive movement to your playing without sacrificing stability. From classic rock riffs to shimmering indie tones, the Charger feels versatile, confident, and unmistakably alive.

Feel

In the hands, the Charger feels effortless and immediate. A satin-finished C-shaped neck moves naturally under your fingers, while medium-jumbo frets and a lightweight offset body make long sessions and energetic performances feel easy. Locking tuners, a GraphTech NuBone nut, and Tune-O-Matic hardware provide dependable tuning stability, with Vibe-Roller-equipped models offering fluid vibrato action and enhanced string movement for expressive playing. Every detail is designed to stay out of your way, leaving you free to focus entirely on the music.
