Carvin Hard Case
Currently strung with SIT Power Steels
Weighs 9.4 or 9.5 lbs
The neck on this has sick rich dark birdseye in it. Very impressed with Carvin's wood.
When I got it used the pickguard showed decent play wear marks so I satinized the pickguard with 0000 steel wool. If the buyer doesn't like it, Carvin sells white, black, white pearloid, and tort pickguard cheap.
Body, and neck are in great condition. Rear butt of the bass has a couple bump marks on it, and another bump mark on the rear of the bottom horn. That's pretty much all I can find on it. It's been played and gigged, but it stands up to my standard of very good condition, but it's not 'new'.
I don't 'have' to sell it. Only reason I am is because my personal tonal preferences keep snapping me back toward Musicman basses.
