« Carvin DC135 »

$710
I had been looking at Fender American Hardtail Strats, but I wanted a humbucking bridge pickup.
At almost $200 less than the Fender (not counting the additional hum p/u) the DC135 is a steal.
Carvin even set up the guitar for my preferred gauge of strings (011).
The C22 Humbucker is not quite as sweet as I'd like, but with what the $200 saved, I could
buy almost 4 Seymour Duncan JB's. C22 is not a bad sounding p/u, I'm just spoiled with the JB.
Excellent construction and finish - neck through = sustain!!!!
Carvin may not have the resale value of a Fender, but in quality, features, and value
the DC135 can't be beat. If I buy another guitar, Carvin will be the first place I look.
