The Carvin 7XX Club!

[Koop]

Yeah a bolt on ct would be wicked!

Holy shit, I never thought of a CT7!! That would be unreal!

 

[Edika]

Carvin has put several new models this year. The DC700, DC800, the Jeff Beck, the headless Holdsworth, the DC600 plus the basses. If sales go well for these models then why not a CT7?

I don't think Jeff Beck has ever played a Carvin. Surely, you mean Jason Becker.

Yes you are right I meant Jason Becker!
It was a long day today and I should get some sleep!

Every do this NOW! I just went on Carvin's website and emailed their customer service this:

"PLEASE start making a 7 & 8 string version of the CT & CS body style guitars. Myself as well as many others online talk about wanting one of these so badly, and I think there would be a huge market for them. There are not to many archtop 7's, and especially 8's out there, and I already have the six string versions of these so I know I would want them both. Also, 7 & 8 string versions of the TL60 would be in my inventory as soon as you made them available.
Thank you, and let me know when I can start ordering them"

Everyone else do it, and we will have it our way

They have Product Sugggestions subforum over at the BBS. They listen. But Carvin always makes small moves.

Here is mine, all walnut, claro top

hows it sound?

 

[Spamspam]

Sounds awesome. The pups are crisp, great growl under high gain, can make the low B scream like a banshee 8). My next one will have the passives, though, just to get a different sonic quality out of it.
Seriously, I haven't touched any of my other guitars since I got this beast.

 

[chrisxrome]

My mouth is watering slightly at the sight of these guitars. You're all beautiful people.

It was a joke.
