There are a few beautiful basses on the Carvin in-stock page!

Yeah I like those - Carvin makes really good basses. They've emphasized the fancy woods and unusual finishes more lately with the Kiesel thing, but you can get a nice basic bass from them still at a good price. I'd like to try their P pickup some time.

I'm actually really into the top wood selections. Priced out a flame maple b25 today and it's reasonable for the bass.

I have a fretless 5 string with high c that i really love. Is there a general consensus here about the basses? Anyone with a Bromberg bass ?

Looking at ordering a B25. There are too many options!

Just placed my order!

I really like this bass and placed my order around it: http://www.kieselguitars.com/guitars-in-stock/117959

Went for the deep orangeburst flame with neck showing option. Flamed maple fingerboard and headstock will really make this bass pop. Maple w/ black limba neck will stand out nicely on the body, hopefully.

I'll post pics in 9 to 11 weeks!

Oops I wasn't very clear!

I ordered a left b25 in that same color scheme, top wood, fingerboard wood. I did the neck show option so it will be a little different

Cool choice!

I really like the 8-string guitar they have in stock. I like satin finishes. I'd really be tempted to scoop that up if I didn't already have one (a little more showy for a few hundred less! 8-) ).
