Ok it's official I have sold my Carvin CT324 and am looking for something to replace it with. I have been thinking of going the Carvin rout again and having something built to my specs. I want a carved top so a CT624, undecided with a finish color but I did watch a Carvin Build that they did for The Tone King and when they got the to finish process, after they sanded down the coat of Black stain and did the final coat of primer I was really liking what I was seeing at that stage. Go to 2:14 in the vid to see what I'm talking about.
I want a 12" radius fret board and SS Med Jumbo Frets those are for certain, I'm on the fence again with a trem. I have been in to playing VH tunes for the past year and it's kind of hard to do with one. Last time I went through this issue I was stuck on getting a trem that had a specific string spacing of 52mm. After doing a little digging I found only three that had it , Wilkinson VS50, PRS and Floyd Rose Pro. This is a personal feel for me so it's something that I kind of need really. I tryed playing something wider but felt to clunky for my picking had if that makes any sense.
I'm leaning to the Floyd for obvious reasons but I found the AxMax trem system that has some pretty cool features. Love the look of this thing but I have not heard of anyone using it nor does he give out any physical specs on the trem. I sent him a message earlier this afternoon to see if I coud find out more info but havent heard anything as of yet. Anyone using it or know someone that has used it? any additional info I can get would help.
As too other guitars I'm open to suggestions. I have a target budget of around $1,800 2K tops. I don't want to build a parts guitar I would much rather have it built. I don't have the time or the required tools to pull off a quality build that I'm looking for. I'm also not opposed to going used ether but Im guessing that the specs would be really hard to match right away.
So help out a FAS brother Six to get his head straight on what direction I need to go :lol.
