Is that alder? It looks light for mahogany. Nice bass Congrats re: New LB70  Posted: Fri Dec 04, 2009 1:45 am   Message   MikeBass Gold Carvinite Joined: 15 Jan 2007 Posts: 1342 Location: Santa Barbara, CA Thanks.

I can already tell that this is a fast-playing bass. I ordered the 10" radius and put on my favorite strings (Thomastik-Infeld Jazz flats) and i couldn't be happier with the results. I'm waiting to see if this Illinois weather does anything to the neck (we got our first snow of the season tonight) and aside from the usual fine-tuning, this is one great-sounding and great-playing bass (she isn't too hard on the eyes, either). Thanks for #9, Carvin re: New LB70  Posted: Fri Dec 04, 2009 10:22 am   Message   JoeBelc Gold Member Joined: 14 Jan 2007 Posts: 144 Location: Pekin, Illinois I like the smiley face on the bottom edge. Quote: I'm waiting to see if this Illinois weather does anything to the neck You aren't kidding with that statement. I've had basses where it seemed that I almost was making monthly adjustments Never was a problem with my Carvins or Fenders though.

That bass just rocks. I love natural wood finishes. You got the new J99A pickups, right? How's it sounding with the flats? I'm slowly being converted to a TI flats user myself. Anyway, enjoy and congratulations!!!        Carvin.com BBS Forum Index » Carvin Basses Page 1 of 1 Top of Page All times are GMT - 4 Hours View previous topic :: View next topic Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Jump to: Select a forum Off-Topic----------------AnnouncementsFAQCarvin Photo GalleryWebsite Suggestions Carvin Products----------------Carvin GuitarsCarvin MIDI Synth GuitarsCarvin BassesCarvin Guitar AmplifiersCarvin Bass AmplifiersCarvin Pro AudioTech TalkBuilder's ForumProduct Suggestions Other Carvin Discussion----------------Share Your Carvin-Made MusicPro PlayersCarvinite Gatherings Non-Carvin Gear----------------Non-Carvin Gear  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum The views and opinions expressed on the Carvin Forums are solely the responsibility of the authors, and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of Carvin Corporation.
