SOLD - Carvin Bolt Guitar Made in USA - Local Madison

[HoboMan]

Made in USA. This a a factory made Carvin, not one of their kits. Used condition. Alder body, maple neck, ebony fretboard with Carvin dual rail pickups.

Sounds and plays great. Frets are in great condition. Wilkinson Trem is set to dive only and stays in tune very well. Includes the trem bar but it's not original to the guitar. Includes original hardshell case. Weight 7.4 lbs on digital pet scale.

Has Original Carvin Dual Blade PUs. 
As far as I can tell this is how the PUs work. Bridge & neck are normal, the middle sounds like it's wired out of phase. It's quieter and thinner sounding. I believe the mini toggle turns on the bridge PU no matter where you have the 5-way switch set.
The PUs sound great. Like a fatter single coil or a bright humbucker. 

Some scratches & dings. One small spot on the bottom has been touched up with blue nail polish.

Here are the specs Carvin/Kiesel sent me according to the serial number:

• 2001 Carvin Bolt-T (T = Wilkinson Tremolo)
• Pearl Blue
• Triple Carvin Twin Blade pickups
• Alder body
• Maple neck
• Ebony fretboard
• Graphite reinforced neck w/dual action truss rod
