bw_user_name Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Do they sound like MM Stingrays ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbloke Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 It won't sell at that price. Carvin basses are v. good, but their resale value is abysmal. I've picked up a fretless 6 for £400 and a fretted 6 with mahogany neck and body for £450 inc shipping fromt he US!!!. However, they sold on for exactly the same or were swapped for items that eventually sold for the same. Electronicson them can be a bit hit and miss. The stock humbucking jazz pickups can be a bit lifeless and I've heard bad reviews of their MM clone pickup. Great if you want one. Not so great if you own but don't want one.
