{"product_id":"carvin-sc90-tobacco-burst-neck-through-construction","title":"Carvin SC90 - Tobacco Burst - Neck Through construction","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is one of those Carvins that reminds you why people who know these guitars tend to hang onto them. The SC90 has that small-batch, USA custom-shop feel all over it — a sleek single-cut shape, carved figured top, 24-fret layout, dual humbuckers, locking tuners, fixed bridge, and the kind of build quality Carvin\/Kiesel developed such a loyal following for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVisually, this one is a stunner. The Tobacco Burst has a deep amber center that rolls into a dark outer edge, and the figured top has that tight, almost 3D flame character that shifts beautifully under light. The all-black hardware and black body edges give it a darker, more modern feel than a typical singlecut, while the glossy body paired with the satin-feeling neck makes it feel both dressed-up and player-focused.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition is excellent and honestly presents close to like new. This was originally bought more as a collector piece, and it shows. The body and neck are both in excellent condition, the frets look and feel fantastic, the fretboard is clean, electronics test perfectly, and the original pickups are still intact. The neck and frets feel incredibly smooth — bends are easy, the frets feel fresh, and the guitar has that fast, broken-in feel without looking heavily played.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTone-wise, it sounds excellent. The stock Carvin humbuckers give it a clear, punchy voice with enough output for rock and gain, but still enough definition to keep chords from turning muddy. The fixed bridge gives it a solid, direct feel, and the singlecut body has plenty of sustain and resonance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFull transparency: this one could benefit from a final professional setup to get it absolutely dialed in. It came in with some heavier buzzing on the low E string, which I’ve since corrected, and it plays well now, but the intonation could still be dialed in a little tighter and the action could potentially come down further. My personal opinion is that the low E nut slot may be a touch low. As it sits, it plays well, sounds great, and feels excellent in the hands — I just like being upfront when I think a guitar still has room to be optimized.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat stood out to me:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSA-made Carvin SC90 with custom-shop character and build quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGorgeous Tobacco Burst figured top with deep amber flame and dark edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGloss body with factory satin-split neck feel for smoother playability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal pickups and electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocking tuners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24-fret layout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFixed bridge for solid sustain and tuning stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets feel like new and bends are smooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent overall condition and originally collector-owned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes with the original hardshell case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike all my guitars, this one’s been cared for and dialed in—no guesswork, no surprises, just a great instrument that’s ready to play.
