  1. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    I changed out the stock Carvin bridge pickup in my DC747 for a Dimarzio D Sonic 7. It's made a little improvement but it just doesn't have the clarity or 'push' that I'm after. I'm after something that can give me the clarity and punch that my Warmoth Strat has (it's totally different compared...
  2. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    https://carvinaudio.com/products/ac120s-power-conditioner This thing is great, I've mine for 6-7 years now and never once had an issue with it. I like it so much, I just bought a spare just in case. :lol: This is a great price. Especially if you're Zepp and you just bought a power conditioner...
  3. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    I was a fan of the Carvin X100b amps and have owned two in the past. I need another 50-100w amp like I need a hole in the head, but the Carvin x1 pedal might fill a niche in my gear. It supposed to be the preamp section of an x100b in pedal form, with a few goodies like speaker emulated out and...
  4. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    My main rig for the past few years was mainly playing my 6505mh and using the celestion v30 speakers i put into my bugera combo. Ive been wanting to change this up as of late since playing speakers on a combo is of an open back design etc... Dude on facebook posted a Carvin Legacy 4x12 slant...
  5. General Music Discussion
    From CarvinAudio - I received an e-mail yesterday announcing the relaunch of CarvinAudio.com. I guess I only assumed they were closing up shop when they said they were closing up shop.
  6. Amps & Gear For Sale / Trade / Wanted
    One of these: Carvin DCM200L Power Amp - Darth Phineas Always racked in my smoke-free house. Works perfectly, sounds awesome, totally rips with the Axe-Fx. It weighs only 4 pounds, is loud as hell, and the EQ expand switch acts somewhat like the resonance control on a 6505. (It instantly adds...

    Anyone take a guess? FX Board? Seems to be on top of the Amp right (left to us) to Steve on the video
  10. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    I must have missed the memo - carvinguitars.com redirects to kieselguitars.com now, and almost everything that I can find has a Kiesel logo on it instead of a Carvin logo. wtf?
  11. Guitar: Gear Discussion
    Anybody ever own or played a Carvin V3? It has a lot of great features, definitely on my radar.
  12. Guitar: Pickups Discussion
    I never get tired of Larry Dimarzio's Videos or getting to watch Vai play up close. Very "clean" sounding pickups but also "striking" when needed.
  13. Guitars For Sale / Trade / Wanted
    So, this is for sale. Great bass, I have written about it here often and glowingly, but when I play bass its almost always my STR 6 string these days. So... Specs: Made in California, in 2012 5 string, birdseye maple board, tung oiled asymetrical maple neck through body with alder wings. Cherry...
  14. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    So, I'm looking at this guitar as an impulse buy... more or less as a mod project, although I'm not going to do anything to it that cannot be quickly undone and I'm keeping all the old parts. Carvin called it the DC150CM. The deal is, I'd trade a shotgun for it, but that's probably tangential...
  15. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    A few weeks overdue, but I've been in the process of moving my office to the other side of town (which also involved some construction work), so I haven't gotten much time to take pics until today. As some of you remember, I had a semi-recent Steinberger ZT3 NGD (NGD: Steinberger ZT3 -...
  16. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    Decided to dive head first into the Carvin/Kiesel custom shop bandwagon. A buddy of mine kept hounding me about trying out their guitars, that I might be surprised at how good they are. For a long time I thought they were just plain ugly. No offense to the 727 owners out there, I just don't...
  17. Guitars For Sale / Trade / Wanted
    Hi guys, Im selling this Carvin - its in really good shape with no major dings. No mods done at all. It sounds massive and its exceptionally loud, but Ive got an arsenal of Ibanez guitars that get played way more than this thing. Located in Canada and not looking for trades - definitely need...
  18. Guitar: Tech, Electronics and DIY
    So I've got 90's Carvin DC400, might be a 200, I don't really know. Either way, its got two passive humbuckers, 4 pots, 3 mini-switches and a 3-way pickup selector. It came with Carvin's active/passive setup but I fried that thing years ago and never really liked it anyways (wasn't paying...
  19. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    Aloha! I've wanted one of these for over almost 20 years after playing my guitar teacher's Holdsworth. I picked it up off a friend locally who's been talking with me to get one of my guitars. He was going to sell this for around 6 so this was his deposit. :) It's a Holdsworth Fatboy...
  20. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    Source: Friends, Our trailer was broken into overnight at our hotel in Austin, TX, and the thieves stole all of Tony's guitars. Serial numbers will be added shortly: - his black Ibanez Guitars custom 7-string with EMG Pickups installed (serial LA071509); - his white Ibanez 7-string with black...
