Performance
A definitive solidbody guitar that was very well thought out. A real overlooked part of Carvin’s guitars are the harmony of how everything on this instrument works together and how the instrument works with the player. This has got to be the only guitar that I have picked up and the neck width, thickness and contour were virtually perfect for me hand. If that wasn’t enough the strings were staggeringly close to the fretboard meaning I had to raise them to get rid of the buzz my extremely heavy picking style takes a toll.

Sound Quality
Carvin custom designed pickups on a straight-through Maple neck with alder wings provide my ideal tone warm tone. Although, be prepared to mess around with your equalizer to find the sweet spots of this guitar.

Construction

Incredibly well balanced strapped on or sitting down. All built using a CNC machine and I am yet to find one flaw with it. This guitar can only be as good as what options you pick on it. I am a very anal player who knows what make a guitar play and sound well and therefore I picked Carvin.
