This is a Carvin B50 built from a kit, like these: http://www.carvinguitars.com/catalog/kits/bk50

This one has optional satin white finish, which is $120 extra, and looks pretty awesome in person. The white finish combined with maple fretboard and cream pickups looks sharp.

This bass sounds and feels simply amazing. Very resonant body, punchy and bright. Classic '70s Jazz Bass sound. J99 single-coil pickups are clear and strong. Weigh is just at 9 lb or less. Fretwork is absolutely perfect. This bass is every bit as good as any built-to-order Carvin that would go for over $1000. Bass has very minimal sign of use, if any, but it's basically new. Setup and ready to play. Super low action.

Asking $295 plus shipping. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions.

Wow! Six hours and this hasn't sold yet!

For $300, you can't miss! I did a double-take when I saw the asking price :lol:

I bet this baby is gone tomorrow.

Of course I would. I could part it out and put it on a smaller box to save on shipping. Please send me your full address to kakoguzman@hotmail.com to calculate shipping.

Thanks
