so a while back, i got a steal (yes, even by carvin DC7x7 used prices ) a steal on a used 727. Had a crack in the neck that had been professionally fixed (very well i might add), and some finish flaws (fucker abused his guitar ). It also apparently has a crack in the fretboard somewhere around 22 that was professionally repaired, but im not sure if i buy that. i cant find it anywhere .

anyways, the thing is in definite players condition, but plays fucking awesome. I can get the action way lower than i actually like it, the fretwork is really nice, and its an all around badass guitar other than finish issues. Plays amazing, and sounds pretty damn good with blackouts too

oh, and it has an OFR7

But i just dont get on with it anymore

I dunno. the neck carve is super comfy, but its bigger than id prefer. I grew up on the original wizard for the most part, and at times, the wizard II.
Suprisingly, i think the S7320 has the most comfortable 7 string profile ive played yet. I like it more than the RG7620s' as well.

I just know i cant get how much its really worth out of it. Carvins' resale value is so low that i know i wont get anywhere near a guitar this nice deserves to go for, even with it being as beat up as it is. Shit, when i bought the thing, i was comforted by the fact that if i couldnt repair it (didnt know about the crack in the neck being fixed right or not), i could part it out and get my money back, and still have the body and stuff left over. thats ridiculous

See, the logical part of me says that if i wont use it, i should sell it, even if its for way less than it really ought to be worth. But then i keep thinking, for the money, i probably cant get anything remotely as nice as this. But it doesnt matter if its nice if i dont use it right?

I just wanna hear what some other people think about this.

Im looking at possibly shooting it to mesh with some scrill for the CSD1 or something.

what's the specs?

I'm not a trem fan, but if the price is right, and the specs are good.. (and if i can sell my Tokai!!)

I am a fan of big necks, i have been shouting my LP-studio love since i decided to get a new 7 lol.

I know what you mean about not getting on with a guitar though, the C7 is leaving for the same reason -the neck comfort factor.

[ohio_eric]

Sell it to me. It's the only logical choice.

Seriously if you're not playing it and you got it for a steal then just sell it and move on to something you will play. The best guitars are the ones you play all the time.

[budda]

damn it eric, don't butt in! im trying to possibly land a carvin 727! for shaaame!

in all seriousness, depending on specs, i'll take it off your hands.

just dont sell it to eric over here ()

[ibznorange]

Specs:
Maple neck, alder body, Quilt maple cap.
Very black ebony board with abalone block inlays
Medium Jumbo Frets
Trans black + Blackburst
Chrome hardware.
OFR and Tremelno
Phase 1 Blackouts, VVT+3way, 2x Minitoggles that arent wired in (silly unsplittable actives)

Shes in hi,-i-dont-like-my-guitars-im-an-asshole-to-them players condition (i wanted to kill the guy when i got it ), but has a lot of upgrades too.
Such an awesome guitar, i REALLY wish i got on with it more.

[budda]

I could give that a nice home lol.

i can see why you wish you got on with it more! is there some pickups i could load it with so that the mini toggles would split 'em?

edit: it'd probably be really bright, but i have a presence knob for a reason haha

[ohio_eric]

Don't listen to budda, he's Canadian.

Does it still have the Afterburner wired up?

[budda]

eric don't be a jerkstore .

if you DO end up with this carvin.. I want to buy your GT-8. I'll get one of the two

[NickCormier]

hey man, maybe shoot me a PM on it, I still wish I coulda got it back then but the guy wouldnt ship it to canada.. But I might be still interested..

I did get a Agile interceptor pro. so I dont know if I really want it, but maybe..

Im going on a Carvin spree lately, with my 7 string carvin being made with Chris woods, and I just placed an order for a 6 string Carvin bolt neck =] They are amazing, I wouldnt mind maybe having another if the price is good.

[ibznorange]

Nah, sold the afterburner.
Buddha, pretty much any 4 conductor passive can be split. the only actives that can be "split" is the emg 707tw (although its actually 2 seperate pickups, not a true split, but it functions as a split for your purpose), but youd have to route for EMG's to use that. i thought of throwing a pa2 and like a pi2 in there or something.
