In 8-10 weeks (or so) Matt will have a new, custom Carvin DC727!

HighGain510 · 10-10-2007, 05:56 PM

I just put it on order!!!

Here are the specs:

Custom Carvin DC727

Fixed Bridge
Deep Triple-Step Dragonburst finish on Tubular/Sausage Quilt with Matching Quilted Maple headstock (Gold Carvin Logo)
Birdseye Maple fretboard with no inlays (requested a LOT of figuring in the birdseye!

)
Swamp Ash body with a Maple neck (again, requested a figured maple neck!

)
Tung Oil neck
Stainless Steel Jumbo fretwire
Customized DC747 Control Layout (1 volume, 1 tone + 3-way blade switch) + 2 coil split toggles and phase toggle switch
Black Hardware
Graphtech saddles
Dunlop Straplocks

Oh yes.... it will be sexy!

I got the phase switch installed because I'm planning on (eventually... later down the road lol

) installing a GHOST piezo system and using that hole for the switch.

I can't wait! It was cool too because they let me put down 10% for now since it was a custom order so I only have to pay $150 right now (good for me because I have to sell some stuff!

)! I am looking forward to seeing how she turns out... hope the Dragonburst looks as good as I hope it will!

Now I need to think of what pickups would sound good in that wood combo?

Might send an email to BKP about it....

so, you ordered bulb's guitar?

congrats. i'm sure it will look sex.
epic picstory when it arrives.

What does the triple step do? How's that different from a normal Dragonburst?

Blexican · 10-10-2007, 06:02 PM

All this talk about Maple boards and Sausage quilt just makes me want breakfast.

Seriously though, this looks like it'll slay. Can't wait for pics, Matt!

Just about, mines a DC727 because I don't need that middle pickup. I wanted a Dragonburst and after playing his I think I like the tone from that wood combo.

Hey said they only do a Deep Triple Step on the Dragonburst. AFAIK the only difference between the triple step and the regular finish they normally do is that they rub black into top before they stain it to "deepen" the look of the figuring of the quilt.

Were you? I remember us talking about carvins. i was tired

HighGain510 · 10-10-2007, 07:18 PM

Haha yeah... I think you were just tired, it was pretty late!

I'm hoping mine will look similar to this (without the neck showing):

Gorgeous!

NickCormier · 10-10-2007, 08:08 PM

If you get the GHOST system, please do a topic/picstory on it, as I am interested in one also, but dont know where to start/find it/consider if its possible/blahh.
