LOL. You should have seen what it replaced (the floor that is)... nothing beats 15 year old green carpet

guys i have a question, when you select the Tung oil on the neck, why do they just randomly stop the finish half way up the neck joint not so its where the neck begins to come out from the body, ESP's have a more tidy approach to it like on the KH models. Can carvin do that or not?

You can call and ask them. I've always wanted to know if they could fade the paint from the body to the neck, like on some of the neck thru ibanez'.

POOF!

I'd be hesitant to ask Carvin for anything out of the ordinary these days. They can't manage to get their normal options correct, right Scott?

I think my next carvin (yes, there will be another ) is going to be pretty straight forward, to minimize the possibility of a fuck up.

They have a really good return policy, i'll give them that much. If they did fuck it up, they'll probably put a rush on the repair/rebuild.

Yep, when mine has scratches in the fretboard they offered to give me money back OR build me a new one as a rush order and said they could get it back to me ASAP. Even with slight flaws on some of the stuff leaving their factory the guitars (other than the pickups sucking terribly! ) Carvin puts out destroy half of the stuff on the market in that price range.

It's only if you want your money back that I've run into problems, but yeah, they'll take it back.
