I ordered (Bolt Plus, DC 127) in early 2011 which I had to return because of horrible, unfixable fret buzz. The finish on both guitars, however, was excellent. The shipping costs and a pro guitar set on the second guitar costs me over $400. That’s $400 out the window. Bye bye. Disappointed since most the guitars at half the price like Ibanez seldom have bad fret buzz. Maybe I just got 2 lemons. Probably my fault for buying something over the mail w/o trying it first. Buyer be warned.
that CS6 is amazing and Im sure all les paul fans will buy this since it's superior than the gibson. but I wish you guys would do the explorer style. I can only imagine how much superior to gibson it would be. Nicer cutaways, maybe 24fret, not necesarly set neck but mayb neckthru. Basically a dream explorer the CE101 LOL hahah I can see it in my head
I've seen one or two DC400 guitars on the web, but I think they were custom build cause the neck had no inlays and it had a PRS like symmetric headstock, I was not able to find that combination on the carvin website, so I reckon it's a custom built. Any1 know how long would it take to build one of those?
@bergweg Carvin is primarily a custom shop. They build guitars to order and offer hundreds of options including different (or no)inlays, as well as headstock shapes. I just waited about 6 weeks for my first custom made Carvin. They are definitely worth the wait and the money.
"We haven't named it yet" Guess what they named it, Deep Orange Burst. The Deep doesn't count because that's what all DTS finishes are, and the burst doesn't count because that's what all the DTS finishes are too, so essentially the finish is called "Orange". LOL
Beautiful guitars... It's sad that Carvin isnt as well-known as other brands like Gibson. I really think these guitars could put up a pretty good fight against something like a Gibson imo.
I'm living in Reunion Island,i'm left-handed,and i WANT a Cravin guitar! the dc 135 with all mapple neck and wilkinson tremolo,or floyd,and a 24 frets too!!! please,tell me how to buy it?
So beautiful! I was thinking about a SC 90 but I'm a little iffy about the bridge on it. Does that model come with a string thru body with a fixed bridge? Something like a hipshot bridge.
@carvinguitars What size neck comes on your SH models! I think your CTs have a neck size that's comparable to a 60's style LP neck. Is the neck the same for the SH models as well?
Do you plan on offering a thicker neck in the future?
DC747 = Yum.... I'll be getting one myself soonish. Carvins are probably the best quality production models I've seen, even though they are all really custom.
What is the difference between medium-jumbo and jumbo frets? Do jumbo frets make bends easier? BTW, what's the difference between all the different fretboard radius' (10", 12" 14"...) Can someone please explain this stuff to me?
Actually Carvin makes almost all of their guitars in left handed models. The only limitation is you can't a lefty model with a Floyd. Also Carvin charges $0 extra to get a guitar in a lefty model.
Yea, i meant to say limited options. I love the tone and quality of Carvin guitars and im a big fan of the Floyd but none were offered for us lefties. I did notice a Wilkinson tremolo option though. Im not too familiar with these and I'm not sure if they are as good as the Floyd. Anyways thanks for replying.
Ultra V. I just got my all black ultra v with black hardware and OFR tremelo last week. Carvin is the best sounding and looking guitars for the price.
so to get the same finish at the guitar at 152 i would have to get the dragon burst finish and not the flamed maple but the other maple finish to make the finish the same as that guitar right

The smaller the radius, the more curved the fingerboard....the larger the radius, the flatter the fingerboard.
