Members Mr_GoodBomb Posted February 17, 2005 Author Members Share Posted February 17, 2005 Those are both super strats. I asked about the DC, SC, or the TL for that matter. Hence the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ExtraGum Posted February 17, 2005 Members Share Posted February 17, 2005 Does Carvin offer different neck profiles? I've heard their necks described as wide, thin, and flat, and they sound like they're designed for shred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members atbear Posted February 17, 2005 Members Share Posted February 17, 2005 Those ARE DC guitars. The first one is a DC727 and the second one is a DC127. Carvin offers different neck profiles, but only for different guitar styles. For example, the DC series neck are thinner than the CT series necks which are thinner than the Holdsworth series necks. If you're talking about a double cutaway and single cutaway, check out the TL60 and SC90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rx Posted February 17, 2005 Members Share Posted February 17, 2005 ......ANYWAY.... TL and SC are both neckthrough so it hsould have wings. because if it doesn't the body will be 4 inches wide. too bad the carvin site doesn't have the shot of the back of the guitars. here's a pic of the back of an SC90.... google sure does come in handy.

I assumed they all HAD wings if they were neck through. My point was do they have a finish that is as such. I should have been more clear with the model numbers and this piece of information. I just really like the look of neck-thrus with the strip of maple down the middle, darker-colored (mahogany, walnut, etc) wings on the side, and maybe two red stripes down the maple. The only finishes I see like this are transparent walnut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could never do a flame top, anyway. But still the only finish I found like this was natural and tung walnut. I'm just wondering if there are others. I googled it up (typed in neck thru) and here are a few pics of kinda like what I mean... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jrfan Posted February 17, 2005 Members Share Posted February 17, 2005 Maybe you should look at a dc400.I believe it's available with the stripes down the maple as you describe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members baimun Posted February 17, 2005 Members Share Posted February 17, 2005 You can have the neck blank either one piece maple, mahogany, walnut, or Koa, or you can do a 5 piece neck with those woods. The body wings can be alder, mahogany, koa, walnut, ash, or any of those woods covered with figured maple, figured koa, or clairo walnut. The option NS make the center blank "Not Show" or you can specify that you want the figured or side woods stop outside and let the center wood show.

Members baimun Posted February 17, 2005 Members Share Posted February 17, 2005 The picture above you'll notice that the side wings are walnut... covered with a flame maple top. The center blank is maple/walnut/maple/walnut/maple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
