Carvin launches the Xccelerator Series

The Carvin Custom Shop debuts a brand new series of basses called Xccelerator with the X54 five-string model.

The Xccelerator X54 is already available and should soon be followed by the 4-string (X44) and 6-string (X64) basses.

The Carvin Xccelerator series is the answer to many users who requested a new design and advanced features such as graphite neck reinforcement, deep cutaways, a new pickup configuration with a split-coil neck model and a new bridge humbucker, as well as active/passive electronics.
