Carvin DC125C 80`s!!

[slayer]

Just won this one on Ebay. Very clean. Taking a chance on the Flyer as I have only owned a Kahler Pro. Anyone have a bar for sale for the Flyer? Same bar that goes on the Pro.

Congrats, nice axe! A regular Strat trem bar will fit a Kahler Pro or Flyer..

Cool !! Good luck with it !!!

[markD]

is it 24 3/4?

I had one of those with a different bridge it was made around '85. It had 24-3/4" scale and was a set neck. I'm not sure what year Carvin started offering neck-thru.

[slayer]

Not sure on the scale length. It looks to be a transitional model with the V headstock but being neck thru and still offering a Kahler. I will have to measure it when it gets here. I really hope it is 24 3/4" scale It may be all maple as well or maple thru poplar or alder.

Very Vicky Peterson looking guitar but that's certainly not a bad thing. Congrats

Thanks man!! I wish I had the original floyd type arm with it. I have to either get a bullet end regular or a heavy duty floyd type arm for it. I will probably get the heavy arm and springs and have it set up really firm. I prefer my trems to be pretty firm to the pull.

Thanks-Jack

First Carvin I ever bought was just like that one only fire engine red. Great guitar but it had a neck like a baseball bat cut in half. Very thick.

Great guitar overall though.

If it has a thick neck I will be in heaven
