DC800 Picture thread!!

[Hyacinth]

^ I can't decide if I like how the pups look with them routes. Part of me says yes and another part would want to try and use the covers on the Carvin pups. Are they d-activators?

They're BKP Aftermaths. I kinda don't like the look of the routes and I'd like to get pickups rings on it soon, but part of me kinda likes it. It's like my pickups have a moat to ward off would-be attackers. Maybe I'll get blue pickups rings so it looks like water. (jk)

What was your card date?

The date was today actually, 9-29. Now FedEx is saying I won't have it til Wednesday As hard as the wait is during build time, I think the wait is way worse during shipping.

I agree man. Mine is with UPS right now, my card date was 10-02.

Plus one more. I love the way the abalone logo looks with the white and gold.

 

[Seanthesheep]

are there any pictures anywhere of any carvin models with maple fretboards and pearl block inlays?

 

[Axayacatl]

my understanding is that Carvin does not do block inlays on maple.

They actually do, now.

They actually do, now.

And I want to see pearl block inlays on maple, even if its on a 6 string

The only one I've seen was a bass on the Carvin boards with abalone blocks. The option is new so not many of them are out there yet.

And here it is:

I don't like black guitars, but this is one fukin' beautiful girl... hey is that Body Binding Effect actually "white"? Or is it just how the maple edge looks on the picture (if it's maple at all) ?

 

[NickS]

Lots of white DC800's coming out lately. And that black one is killer as well

I just ordered one very close to NickS's white Carvin.

It's maple so it's more like beige. I originally wanted it to be white, but I have to say it looks way better with the maple. White binding looks kinda cheap compared I think

I get one in the end of this month too

It's basically the same as my black one, but in white, with a dark binding. Can't wait to see how it will come out!

So these covers that fit passives, will they fit into a 800?
