If this is still here around the end of August, I want it, I knew as soon as I pulled the trigger on a Splawn, guitars would start popping up on here.

[ShredMojo]

still got this? lol..I was alot bit off when I said August

[LeftyParasite]

Is this the same guitar that was/is being sold on Harmony Central for $400?

[Jesse]

Yes, the same. Need to make room for my BC Rich. BUMP

[LeftyJay]

Pm sent your way

[mirth]

Wow, just found this website.

Do you still have this for sale?

[Jesse]

yes sir! It is indeed still for sale.

[mirth]

Cool. Hmm...out of curiosity what's the scale length on that? I just got a nice G&L, but just can't getused to the shorter scale. Is it 25.5?

Thanks again.

[Jesse]

it is 25 inch scale

[Texas Lefty]

It looks like an 1988 or 1989 model to me.I'm pretty sure the maple neck thru body with maple sides was only made for those 2 years.Just my 2 cents.I have been wrong before.I think its pretty damn nice.

[mirth]

Hmm. Never actually had a 25" scale. I'll have to think about it a bit. Thanks! I do like my Carvin I have right now a lot, would be nice to have a sibling.

[Texas Lefty]

It would indeed.Those maple on maple carvins were built to last and if it is the late 80's model that it seems to be,its a hidden gem from that time.Being it was only made that way for 2 years.Snap that thing up so your other carvin will have some good company.I wish i new the serial number,so it would help put my mind at ease.

So how much is this? there's $500 here and $400 on HC... what's the correct figure?

Is there a case? Is the price incl. shipping?

Do you know if the finish is nitro or poly? It looks like it could do with an overhaul Is that a 'real' Floyd Rose, or a 'licensed by'?

Also, do you know the fingerboard radius? Are the tuners Sperzels or something else? (I'm not sure if Carvin were using Sperzel in the 80s).

basically, all the nerdy information you have, please
