sunfish Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) Carvin AC40 Fretless Electro-acoustic bass Hi This is a feeler for a lovely instrument that just isn't getting played and I'm still oggling other things. So...... Here's my Carvin AC40. £650 LR Baggs electronics. Vol/bass/treble. The sound from this thing is amazing. Its a 34" scale fretless ebony fretboard on a mahogany neck which feels really comfortable. The action is perfect. So easy to play Of course its an acoustic instrument so it's as light as a feather Spruce top (I think) Not sure of the age exactly. The serial number is stamped on the jack plate (62348) There are a couple of tiny dings One on the end of the head (see pic) and also I spotted a small indentation on the edge of the side at the top. I also have a Fender Jazz on here for sale. I'm based in Malvern, Worcestershire but willing to meet up half way, within reason Edited March 20, 2019 by sunfish 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellzero Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 A really very good sounding fretless bass à la Godin Acoustibass. To me even better sounding due to the construction and sold at a more than decent price. It's an LR Baggs pickup and electronics, not LA. 😉 GLWYS.

dyerseve Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 A neck thru acoustic? Now I've seen everything! Clearly an incredibly well constructed bass and I'm sure it sounds every bit as good as it looks. GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunfish Posted March 7, 2019 Author Share Posted March 7, 2019 It really does sound great. If you want the double bass sound without lugging a double bass around this is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
