Scooby Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Selling or trading this superb Carvin 6 as it unlikely to get the use it deserves. It has one of the most beautiful pieces of top wood that I have seen for a long time. With a high gloss finish the bass just oozes quality. It is a Lightweight, 34" scale, 48mm top nut, 16.5mm string spacing. The weight is approx 4.5kg according to my luggage scales.[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] The through neck construction is beautifully done and the shallow neck profile makes for effortless playing - as effortless as you can be with 6 strings to contend with [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] [/font][/color] Edited June 3, 2016 by Scooby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybassdoyle Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I'm not in the market at the moment but that looks like a very nice bass for the money. Glwts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellzero Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Are you sure about the string spacing ? Usually it's 16,25 mm at the bridge by Carvin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, using my pre-decimal school ruler shows 18mm, which just goes to show how going metric shrunk things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
