SisterAbdullahX Posted October 10, 2017 Posted October 10, 2017 As an owner of one of their great basses and bass amps I can truly say this is a sad day! https://www.facebook.com/carvinaudio/posts/1208629359280670 Quote
SisterAbdullahX Posted October 10, 2017 Author Posted October 10, 2017 Apparently it's just the pro-audio division which separated from Carvin, so Carvin and Keisel guitars and basses not effected. Not sure if bass amps effected or just the p.a. gear. Quote
fleabag Posted October 10, 2017 Posted October 10, 2017 If its bass amps, i'll hang on to my Carvin BX1600 for another 45 years and it'll be a vintage must have for mucho moolah Quote
Meypelnek Posted October 10, 2017 Posted October 10, 2017 Perhaps we now see why they separated some years ago. Quote
Mcgiver69 Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 As the owner of a BX500 I can say I'm truly sad, great amps with lots of power and tonal options. I think I'll get another as backup. Quote

Mastodon2 Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 They obviously knew the writing was on the wall when they split the company, they must have been losing too much money. That said, I'm sad the Carvin name is gone, Kiesel doesn't have the same meaning, not to mention the new direction Kiesel are taking involves some pretty greasy tactics. it's a real shame. Quote

phatbass787 Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 That would be sad if its all over for them Quote
vsmith1 Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 I've just sold my BX700. I'm in two minds whether I'm sad or relieved. Quote
