Collection

Dave has a nice
collection, covering both vintage and contemporary Carvin guitars and basses, as
well as amps and pro audio gear (see his site for lots more info).
The centerpiece
is Dave's 1987 SH225 (left, and below left). This is a beautiful example
of the only archtop Carvin produced in the past 20 years. It's all stock,
with abalone block inlays, gold hardware, and flamed maple top and back.
Dave's 2000
model DC135C (below, 2nd from left) has a tung-oiled koa body and neck, gold
hardware, and a Floyd Rose tremolo.
The 2004 LB75FP
(below, 2nd from right) has a walnut body with maple neck, no-inlay fretboard,
P-Series upgrade and chrome hardware. Dave scored this from Carvin's
Basses-In-Stock section.
The 2004 LB70
(below, far right) also came from the Basses-In-Stock section. It's
finished in greenburst on swamp ash with black chrome hardware.
On the bottom
row is Dave's 2003 DC150 which he recently bought on eBay. It has a
Vintage Yellow finish on quilted maple, with a mahogany neck and body, abalone
block inlays, and chrome hardware.
Last is Dave's
new Cobalt C750. This has the standard Cobalt livery - spruce top,
mahogany back and sides, rosewood fingerboard and Fishman electronics. |
