I'm so bright, my mom called me son! ;-)
In my entire life, I have NEVER done business with a place whose service after you bought the thing was more responsive than their sales was before you bought it. That's something I'd think about -- REALLY think about.
Two months is a long time to wait, I agree, but compared to how long you are likely to own the bass (and hence have a relationship with it's vender), it isn't that long. Besides, it is fairly likely that you will have to wait two months.
Tips for buying from Carvin:
1. Don't use the web site, call the toll free number.
2. Ask for Carl.
3. Ask him to tell you what you what they have in the current inventory.
Basically, they have 2 kinds of instruments in inventory: things people ordered and then cancelled BEFORE it shipped, and things they know most people want.
I bet if you called, you'd find they had a 6 ready to ship.

Rojo, i like Warwicks! Im not sure if i like the ones MORE than the things i could get though. I HATE the thumb 6...the 4 and the 5 are ok though. If i were to get anything, it would be a Streamer though...just not the standard ones. An LX, or a Stage 1 or 2...but i dont have the money for the latter two...and nobody sells the LX (and id have to get it used). So there. 
Im still waiting for the freaking bid from JOHN DiMaggio. If its too much...well, screw it, ill just buy a Carvin 6 from Beaver. Hes got one. Or ill call Carvin (thanks tom!) So i dont know yet. It could go either way. Im confused. I just want my damn bass!
