Carvin Factory Tour (6) Wood Shop, CNC & Guitar Buildling Process

Folks, this is a good one ... check out the wood shop, and see how the guitars are actually made!! Tops get glued on, then put into a giant CNC, for total and complete accuracy. Really, really impressive process & facility! Think of the investment that goes into the machinery to produce consistent and accurate rock n roll weapons!!

More to come, so stay tuned!
Rock ON, signed TTK.

Are there going to be any more videos at the Carvin factory, or is this it? I appreciate that you filmed this because I'm a huge fan of Carvin and I'm glad to see you spreading the word about them. Carvin doesn't get the credit they deserve alot of times.

@MrGamingGuitarist More on the way!!!

Thank you so much tone king for these videos, Carvin is by far amazing and im proud to play and own carvin guitars and amps!!!!!!!!

[lmsjr]

@shredmeister777 Thank you Shred! I appreciate the kind words. And ... I agree with you ... I too am proud to own 2 Carvin guitars (and too many Carvin amps ;-). Rock ON!

I had Carvin build a custom build a CT6-24 to my specifications... That's the first point I want to make - they built what I wanted. From woods to neck radius, fret material and size, tuners, pickups, tremelo, neck inlays, nut, and unbelievable finish. All spot on, all 100% to my liking. But what matters most is playability and tone.... And this guitar matches my 1986 PRS Custom for feel and awesome tone. I would do it again in a heartbeat. And made in USA!!

@blm0724 Carvin's fret dressings are immaculate. These video posters are most likely living in dry climate areas which would make any guitar wood shrink over time, exposing the fret ends. The easy solution is to keep your instrument in a properly humidified space.

I'm very interested in Carvin guitars and was wondering if anyone could answer my question. I seen some videos on YouTube that Carvin guitars have rough fret edges. Is that true? It really is a problem for me, they usually keep grabbing my fingers. Thanks.

I'm very interested to learn how Carvin compares to PRS in terms of craftsmanship, quality control, etc. PRS does tons of these videos, and clearly take pride in the most minute details.

awesome vid!

I look at those guitars on the rack with its specs sticker and all i can help think that mine will be on one of those racks soon!!!!

Ordered a DC125 with a walnut top and a holdsworth headstock.

I ordered a Bolt Plus and DC 127 in 2011 which I had to return because of unfixable fret buzz. The finish on both guitars, however, was excellent. Total shipping costs and a pro guitar set on the second guitar costs me over $400. That’s $400 out the window and good deal of time wasted. 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.

I have a Carvin SC90. It is my fav. I own several Gibson, Fender USA's. My Carvin is my favorite. These are custom made USA guitars, at a fair price........CUSTOM! They are quality guitars, and amps, etc. I do not work for Carvin. I would like this company get the recognition it deserves. The promo dept. needs to change and improve its strategy. It bothers me to see so many guitars built in other countries, when you can buy the best here. Carvin has quality products, built here in the USA.

This is just awesome. I went through the Gibson acoustic factory in Bozeman, MT a few years ago. Fantastic!! If you are ever near the Big Sky Country, where Kidpip calls home, make sure you swing over to see it. Absolutely fantastic to see these machines at work.
