Kiesels in particular are goofy heavy for what they are. The newer metal pickups I can't really give a fair shake on because that's not my style, but I owned a Kiesel with Lithiums and I thought they were just awful.Īnother thing I suspect they do at least nowadays to save money is buy woods that are heavier. The new Kiesel version of the Holdsworths are good and the Berylliums are great. The old Carvin C22s were great IMO but most of their other pickups kind of sucked in my experience. They save money by doing pickups in house. That's the only guitar I've ever owned that needed a switch replaced. The switch on one of my Carvins crapped out on me.
I know Carvins used mini pots and janky switches. Their tops are ridiculously nice for the prices, but their finishes tend to have less of a 3 dimensional quality than something like a PRS.Įlectronics are one place they cut corners. Lately some Kiesels have apparently had fret sprout but the 2 Kiesels I've owned didn't have that issue. I'll die on this hill as someone who's owned and played a ton of high end guitars. I'd say they compete with a lot of the top dogs in that regard. Personally I'd say they're up there with the nicest neck/fretwork you can get.
CARVIN GUITARS PRICE PASSWORD
We have opened a discussion thread in the Pub section discussing this. We will include a very detailed password checklist. We want to highly recommend that members turn on and use TGP's two-factor authentication option. We highly recommend every member reading this change their passwords as a precaution. We have forced email revalidation for all members that have not signed on for a while. None of the accounts compromised were using two-factor authentication. Talking to one member as I am working through getting his account back in order, he informed me that his Apple password manager had been compromised and made available on the dark web. In today's world, that is false confidence you can no longer afford.Įvery account that I've restored so far to the original owner was using compromised passwords. It is heartbreaking to see that the lure of saving some money will still fool people into using those methods to save a few dollars.
Unfortunately, we cannot control how members do deals. However, the best way to prevent this is for members to exercise proper password hygiene (which I'll detail below), turn on two-factor authentication, and - I implore every single person here - only use payment methods that have buyer protection. We've made security changes that I don't want to detail here to stop them. They have scammed members in the Emporiums by creating ads with stolen photos and requesting Paypal F&F or Venmo exclusively for payment. Some fraudsters have compromised TGP accounts have in the past few days.
