Whenever you see American Fenders for under $500 at GC it is usually a typo caused by their software filling in words, looks like this one got corrected quickly.

Not 100% familiar with this brand, but looks like a good deal to me. Looks like 1 sold here on TB for $2K awhile ago. Saw the bass yesterday (didn't play it, as I don't need the temptation). Looks to be in pretty good shape, has a EMG J in the bridge position (didn't look under the cover for the neck p/u) and a BADASS V bridge. Fingerboard has some nice grain patterns to it.

Man, that Carvin looks like quite a steal. A word to anyone interested: I was blatantly lied to by a salesperson and the store tech in Arvada. The manager made it right in the end, but they had to refund me the cost of a replacement neck for the bass I bought. Obviously not an option if this one has similar issues.
Yeah, I got it and the electronics were unusable, everything from the jack to the pots was so dirty that it took a couple cleanings. Thinking I had solved all the problems I went to loosen the truss since the G string was buzzing....entire nut/rod within the cavity is completely sheared off.
:***:
And it's got the hipshot bridge. A great buy for anyone who wants an SG.I love these, and you rarely see them pop up at GC anymore:
