| I have owned both. I would have to choose the MTD Z5 over the Carvin. My opinion is biased because my Carvin's neck warped within the first year I had it. It looked amazing and sounded pretty good escept for the intonation problems after the 12th fret.
I wasn't crazy about the Z5 because the preamp was a little thin, but if you boost the low end on the amp it sounds amazing. (I purchased my Z5 from The Perfect Bass and it had a good set up and I received top notch customer service!)
