Carvin SB4k/5k Owners: A question

paddydaddyo · #1 01-23-2013, 02:01 PM

I am thinking of pulling the trigger on a SB4k build, and I am wondering about the quality and appearance of the red tort pickguards ... any thoughts/pix to share?

I played a SB4k here in São Paulo at Bass Center and it was enough to set me to planning. Scary-good.

Well that depends what color bass you get. I think it really compliments the bass if it's on the right color. Go to Carvin's website and look at the basses with red tort pick guards.

I have a black SB5000 with the Tort PG and I like it. I bought it off of Basswave (TB'er).

But the PG does scratch somewhat easily if you are a pick player. Other than that, the look is pretty good.

No regrets at all.......

Sorry, crappy cell phone pics.
