The Original Charvel Gang

This is the story of Wayne Charvel. Eddie Van Halen bought some guitar parts from him, and built his iconic black and white striped guitar, changing the course of guitar playing, manufacturing, and music. In the late 70's Grover Jackson took ownership of Charvel Mfg. and made a custom guitar for Randy Rhoads (Ozzy Osbourne). At this point Jackson - Charvel guitars were all you saw on MTV.
