    DCM800

    Anybody else see this? I know the Aries series features a multiscale eight-string, but I guess there's a multiscale option for the dc800? It seems too good to be true. It says the fan is 26-27.5". Neck-thru, if I'm not mistaken. DCM8 MULTISCALE 8-STRING NECK THROUGH ELECTRIC GUITAR |...

    Hey all, I have decided to take the leap and buy my first 8 string guitar. I have been doing a fair amount of research and have basically narrowed my options to these three guitars (I am open to other suggestions, though I'm not going to spend any more than the price of the RG852MPB): -...

    Carvin DC800 carbon-fiber neck rod question

    I am interested in getting a DC800 soon because I have seen some that look amazing. I am still on the fence about getting a used one or saving up a bit more and getting a custom made. The used DC800 that I was looking at was made in 2011, and Carvin mentioned that the newer models use...

    Delayed NGD. DC800 w/ Kiesel Pickups.

    As Jeff was finalizing the passive pickups he was messaging me about doing a special build with them for me. I went back and forth between a tasty new finish color (trans-white, lizardburst) on flamed or quilted maple but really wanted to try out the new zebrawood board he had just unveiled. In...

    NPUD!! Blackwater Neodymium Modern (w/ review + test)

    That was a '''fun''' last couple of days. It was pretty worth it in my opinion because along with testing out some new on the market pickups, I also joined the very small club of people who swapped out Carvin DC800 actives to passives, which was an interesting process to say the least. One thing...
