Emerald Green Carvin DC700!

Rocky Neurock · 02-23-2012, 07:29 PM

I just got my new Carvin DC700 yesterday and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out.

The specs:
5 piece walnut neck (tung oiled) w/two maple stripes and reverse headstock.
Ebony fretboard w/jumbo frets, 20" radius, and no inlays.
Swamp ash body w/maple top, finished in emerald green.
Chrome hardware including tune-o-matic bridge w/strings through the body, locking tuners, and strap locks.
Carvin's passive pickups vs. their active pickups that are stock with DC700's.

That neck is beautiful!

edrowley · 02-23-2012, 07:36 PM

I love that color! Congrats on the new Axe!

I was messing around with the Carvin guitar builder a few days ago and was so curious to see the Emerald Green finish on a real photo... and there you go! I love this. Reminds me of the old Stef Carpenter model ESP and that is exactly what I was hoping for.

That guitar is dead serious, son.

I'd be ordering a DC700 if it wasn't for the TOM...and active-sized routes.....and money....

You can get it without a TOM
You can get it with passive pickups
You only need one kidney

The guitar looks great, one question I have about DC700's though:

Why are the bridges so high up on the body? It's something I try to ignore, but it's so obvious. Although, I don't think the bridges are that high up on the DC800's (at least they don't look like it to me...)

I think it's the scale length. The DC800's have a 27" scale and the DC700's are only 25.5". Not really the best if you plan on tuning down your 7 but since I don't, it's perfect for me.

Thank you all for the congrats, I was so happy with it, I had to share it everywhere!

So much this. I ordered a Carvin HH2X in emerald green flame this week.

theicon2125 · 02-24-2012, 05:30 PM
