I don't know about their marketing agreement. Just trying to share some info. I read on another board if anyone's interested. I believe the "retail pricing" expires 7/26.

Well, I've never played a Ric but I do know that there are a couple of models on sale at Musiciansfriend. I think they're something like $500 off normal prices. It's a call in "special".

Great review, Matt, and congrats again on the new guitar! It looks great. As an aside, I was going to sell my Floyd after I got my Carvin but decided to keep it to use for alternate tunings. I had it on Craigslist for a week and there was a lot of interest for basically what we paid for it new!

That is beautiful!

Thanks, guys. Yes, I will take some outdoor pics soon! I actually haven't had much chance to play with parties and father's day. Sux but that'll change! :bravo:

I haven't been to this forum in some time. Anyway, I just received delivery on Friday of my first Carvin. It's a blueburst, BoltPlus with Wilkinson Trem. Alder body, Tung Oil Maple neck, ebony fretboard, 2 C22 humbuckers, 5 way switch, Stainless frets, Dunlap Straplocks. My pics came out...

I hadn't played a Fender in a while. I grew up with a Stratocaster in the 70's and 80's and loved it (and sold it:confused: ). Anyway, I've read on line that the QC is hit or miss. I suppose with any large production operation you're going to have that issue. Believe me when I say I'm not...

I played a bunch of strats and teles on Saturday at Guitar Center (my first GC visit by the way). I played both MIMs and USA models and was very disappointed in the workmanship. I had heard that Fenders were hit or miss and I saw it with my own eyes. Are you really expected to have to do major...
