Carvin USA California Carved Top CT4 with Case - Black (now Kiesel)

2005 Carvin CT4. It has a gloss black, carved top and an ebony fretboard with stunning abalone inlays.

It appears to have original hardware and electronics, but I'm not the original owner so I can't say for sure. Additionally, this CT4 has Sperzel locking tuners and a tone knob with a push-pull pot for splitting/tapping. The mahogany body and maple cap make it a solid axe but it weighs in at a comfortable 7.9 pounds. The hardshell case has a few knicks but the interior is plush and the locks latch tightly.

There's a small chip in the finish on the headstock by the high e tuning key (see photo). It has a little cloudiness in the finish on the back around the neck joint, not noticeable from the front.

There may be other marks you find under close scrutiny, but this instrument is being sold as-is, as-described, no returns. I've captured several angles in order for the purchaser to view the guitar.

I do not consider this item sold on Reverb until your payment has cleared.

Review all photos thoroughly, zoom in and scrutinize every pixel if you’ve got concerns. If there’s anything else you want to see, message me before purchasing or making an offer—happy to help!

On the Kiesel site this guitar would run you hundreds more, so save money with a gently used model!

Thanks for looking!
