I had the pleasure of seeing, listening and talking to Darryl Williams at Jazz Alley here in Seattle last night... He was a very generous, friendly and engaging musician who creates a deep pocket and groove with his playing... I was FLOORED by the sound of the SB-5000. Articulate, thick, rich, smooth, ballsy, are all descriptions that come to mind when recalling the sound of that beast!!! And not mention how stunning the bass looked as well.... Here is a world class player, who has played and owned just about every high end instrument out there, and he said Carvin trumped them all... I certainly was glad that i ordered my SB-5000 last week!! Now the wait begins. |

Darryl is a solo artist, but is a noted side man as well on the Smooth Jazz scene... Right now he is touring with saxophonist Euge Groove. He is a very busy sideman... He has a great pocket and groove... The Carvin he is playing just sounds so amazing... After my fretless arrives, I am going to get a fretted SB-5000 for sure... |

The finish is actually dragon burst. He has a tagged pic of the bass in the pic section of his myspace profile.

Darryl's SB5000 looks sick!
I hope mine looks 10% as cool! |
