F/S Carvin IC5W Beautiful 5 String Bass

*** SOLD ***

For sale (only - no trades) is a like new near mint Carvin IC5W 5 string bass. It has a swampash body, deep dark walnut top, 5 piece all maple neck with beautiful flamed maple fingerboard, asymmetrical neck profile (super comfortable), figured matching walnut headstock overlay, no fingerboard inlays, black chrome knobs, black chrome plated hardware, RADJ single coil pickups, Dunlop strap locks, Ivory graph-tech nut and Carvin hard shell case. This bass also has the Bromberg preamp in it and that is not normally an option for these basses. The build quality of this bass is top notch all the way and on par with any of the nicer build basses like Sadowsky, Ken Smith, Roscoe, etc. The weight is 9 pounds 3 ounces on my digital postal scale. If you were to buy this bass new it would be over $1700 dollars. Asking $1275 shipped in CONUS. E-mail me with any questions. Thanks for looking!

Killer bass. I'm in love with my carvin. All it takes is little time to learn electronics and you have boutique sounding bass for very reasonable price. Good luck!!!

The scale is 34" and here is a pic of the preamp. Note the brass screw inserts for the cavity cover. Not just screws driven into the wood. Classy design.
