Wierd looking lefty Carvin on ebay...what is it?
http://cgi.ebay.com/LEFT-HANDED-VIN...4QQcmdZViewItem
Does anybody know anything about this guitar, because it definitely doesn't look like your average Carvin guitar. But then again, I don't really know anything about Carvin. I happen to be looking for a good lefty axe with humbuckers and a tremolo bridge and I don't wann spend much more than $500, so this one is looking pretty good. But is this axe really good as far as tone and playability go?

yes. you cant find them in stores. you have to order them from the company or have them custom made. very high quality instruments. to find a carvin guitar like that for such an incredibly low price is fucking impossible. dont let that baby get away.

carvins are better than jackson except soloist, ibanez except J custom. thats what i think at least. u better get that shit. carvins are very adaptable to any type of music, i played one once. and i could play all sorts of stuff, jazz, blues, rock, metal. at that price u might as well just steal it. u better get that

Plus, they're very customizable when you buy them from their website. I have a LB75 Carvin bass and it's awesome. Also, one of the few company who doesn't charge an extra for a lefty instrument.
