Incoming PURPLE QUILT!!

Re: Incoming PURPLE QUILT!!

Did you see anything on the news about a train derailment? Well, who knows if it would even make the news these days.
 
Re: Incoming PURPLE QUILT!!

Dude you have got to have the worst luck when it comes to deliveries Ive ever seen. Hope they guitar arrives soon and comes out unscathed.
 
Re: Incoming PURPLE QUILT!!

Well this is a first! From UPS on the guitar "A train derailment has delayed delivery. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible."

Guess the got tired of the
"Moe forgot to load it on the truck"
 
Re: Incoming PURPLE QUILT!!

Scheduled for tomorrow fingers crossed it's unscathed. This was UPS not Fed X. Stuff happens and can respect honesty but hate a liar , UPS was dead honest and up front on this one while Fed X on the other situation lied out their teeth to me for a solid week.

2020 overall has just been a weird year so---.
 
Re: Incoming PURPLE QUILT!!

Lol, I've seen "your delivery has been delayed" or various other corrections required or attempts made etc.

Never even heard of any company bluntly saying a train derailment. I feel bad but I did actually laugh out loud.

Really sweet looking score dude, I love a nice quilt and that looks very 3D in the pics. Is that just a basic vintage Strat bridge or do I see some Ghost saddles to go with the mini toggles?

Yep freaked me out when i saw that pop up also! That is the standard hartail Carvin used since the early 1990's have a 93 DC 127 in KOA with the same bridge. Switches are splits.

She arrived a few ago. Box was a little battered but not bad guitar was intact and is very nice. In typical Carvin fashion it shipped half way across the country went through a train wreck and came out of the case in tune. That's why I love these guitars!! Will restring it and do a full set up and clean up then get some photos but it's STUNNING!!
 
Re: Incoming PURPLE QUILT!!

Once you get the PB/Sentient installed I’d LOVE to hear a short recording of you jamming around a bit on it.
If you have a free minute or two, of course!!

The soundcloud(?) clips you posted a few months ago of the MT15 I think it was, were great.
 
Re: Incoming PURPLE QUILT!!

Good thing it didn't have train tracks on it!

Seller bomb proofed this thing thankfully. Box took a little of a beating but the case and guitar arrived intact. Great seller to deal with thankfully we communicated and were going to work together if something was wrong. Also a shout out to UPS for the way they handled this as they were straight up on what happened and the driver who delivered it let me open the box before i signed for it great job on their end!
Like I said in spite of it all the guitar came out of the box in TUNE typical Carvin/Kiesel and is why I LOVE these guitars and have played them almost exclusively since the late 80's!
