Members bholder Posted November 10, 2007 Members Share Posted November 10, 2007 I have several 80's Carvins, and they're great basses for the money. I don't know about the current / recent ones - I've heard the pickups are a bit weak and "sterile" sounding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members blueyedmule Posted November 10, 2007 Members Share Posted November 10, 2007 When I was in college (mid-90's) the best bassist on campus played a Carvin through an SWR, sounded killer for Jazz. I remember being slightly envious at the time, as much for his bass sound as for his ability to play and sightread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bal704 Posted November 10, 2007 Members Share Posted November 10, 2007 I've got a Carvin B4 and B5, both made from kits. Both excellent playing and sounding basses. Unfortunately, I'm selling my B5 right now on ebay because I'm told I've got too many horses in the stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
