(money well spent)Д«uying those necks set me up for buying the 4 Carvin guitars later. I think I paid about 100 dollars each then. I don't think the new ones are as nice as mine. It's hard to believe when I know how much I've used them. To look at them today you would think they were not that old.

The 2 Carvin bolt on necks that I bought in the early 90's with SS frets are awesome. I think if I had to search my soul the Strats would go before any of my Carvins. The only one not stock is the TL-60 with having 3 Holy Grail Lace Sensors installed in it. My Carvin guitars are a DC-400T, TL-60, Ultra V, and a AC-175 I also have 4 Carvin guitars and 2 Carvin bolt on necks on different bodys. I also own it's brother, a rack mount T100 tube power amp.Д«oth the preamp and power amp can be switched to 120 or 240 VAC power.(nice) The tonal possibilities with this amp are endless.

They are great for live or recording with having a switch for cabinet voicing. Long discontinued they are still holding their value. This preamp to me is one of the very best ever made. The amp also has midi interface connections. The foot swith is nice in that when channel switching it remembers how everything was set when you switch back.ДЄ great feature also is when switching off reverb it lets it decay naturally not like most amps that slam the door in your face. It has a built in 5 band graphic EQ on board also. It also sports a total of 6, thats 6 effects loops.ДЄ reverb stereo loop that bypasses the internal spring reverb.ДЄnd 4 mono loops, one for each of its 4 channels. It has a whopping 9 preamp tubes feeding its 4 onboard channels.Д¬hannel 1+2 are clean, 3- crunch, 4- high gain.Д¬hannel 2+3 share a cloaking device that filters the bottom end. I have a rack mount Quad X-Amp tube preamp. This is a copy of other Carvin threads i've posted on and a bit revised.Д®asier than typing basically the same thing over.

Carvin guitars any good
