A very rare Carvin solid body (maple) guitar from 1969-71. Beautifully preserved, excellent original condition. When I got it a few years ago the  bridge pickup was dead. I sent it to Bob Shade of Hallmark Guitars to restore because he knows the correct specifications for these legendary AP-6 Carvin pickups. It works perfectly. This guitar plays silky smooth and has that clarity and punch which these early Carvins were known for. In this era, the necks were made by Hofner (and possibly the maple body as well) Carvin made the pickups of their own design and patent. If you know vintage Carvin guitars then you know how rarely these show up on Ebay.There is a Carvin Museum online which shows much of the literature / catalogs for this vintage of guitars and amps.

Please ask questions before bidding. If you are on the fence, consider how long it may be before another shows up...in this kind of condition.
