Got me a new Carvin (pics inside)

rahul_mukerji · 05-16-2007, 02:12 AM

I saw someone selling their mint Carvin Custom 727, so I jumped on it !

Here are the specs:

Carvin DC 727 seven string guitar... Totally custom made, mahogany neck-thru with California claro walnut body and AAAA quilted maple top. Ebony fingerboard and stainless steel frets. Active electronics and coil tapping/phase controls. The entire guitar is stained transparent black. Matching quilted headstock and Sperzel locking tuners. Graph-tech graphite saddles and graphite nut... Insanely good action and playability.

Playing it was a breeze and I quite liked the phase switch and coil taps. Never had any of my guitars have those before !

SWEET!

Seems like a shame to put a dark stain on a claro walnut body. But it must sound wicked.

Sweet! Carvin does build some pretty guitars.

How does all that maple and walnut sound? Is it pretty bright?

I saw this on craigslist tonight and thought it looked pretty cool!
