You have to order Carvin products directly from Carvin.

That looks great Vink!

How 'bout a mini-review? In particular, how's the neck? I'm planning to build one of their kits some day, and I've heard some mixed comments about the necks (mostly good - in fact, mostly great, but some oddball comments too.) What do you think?

Thanks, guys! I will post a review in a few days.. but, for now:

- It sound absolutely awesome, I was stunned by how many different types of sounds I can get out of the pickups. Sounds so full, but I can make it sound closer to my strat with the coil spitter. Overall, very full sounds on the neck pickup, very nice bell tones as you go further up the fretboard. Lot of bite to the bridge pickup, and very nice dynamics. I played it for a while with no effects on my Galaxy 10, and I got amazing tone!
- The neck and the fretboard are awesome. It has 10s on it, I usually play 9s. It took a little while for me to get used to it, but once I got used to it, it felt so smooth and very fast. I also have stainless steel frets on it.

So far, I am really impressed! I waited and planned/ordered this one rather than buy one of the guitars that I have tried and felt like getting, and I feel it was worth the wait..

Got to go play it more..
(slejhamer: PM me if you need more info on the whole carvin deal, or check out the carvin bbs on their site..)
