telepaul Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 Are ALL Carvin products 100% American made? Nice ash!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dak Lander Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 No. Lots of their accessories are foreign made, including mics. I believe the Cobalt series of Acoustics are subbed out too. Boggs will probably weigh in here the right skinny on those but I do think that I'm right there. The electrics, from what I've been able to determine, are all made here in the USA and I believe the amps and mixers are too. Regardless of where their stuff is made, it's good stuff IMHO. I use quite a bit of Carvin equipment. Our Joint "When you come slam bang up against trouble, it never looks half as bad if you face up to it." The Duke...

Boggs Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 The Cobalt acoustics are built in Korea (not by Samick) to Carvin's specs and the fret dressing, nut and saddle installation and all setups are done by hand in the States at the San Diego factory. The electric and AC series guitars and basses are all made at the San Diego factory. They are wired in the states. I am sure that some of the individual electronic components such as caps and possibly pots and such may be made overseas (Isn't everything?) but the chassis and amps and all are made in the States, I'm pretty sure. If you call them up and ask them about a specific piece of gear, they will be honest about telling you if it is of a concern.

telepaul Posted December 30, 2003 Author Share Posted December 30, 2003 Are all of the electric guitars and kits(specifically the bolt and bolt kit) 100% made US? Nice ash!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gug Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 I made mine right here in California! If you call the 1-800 number for Carvin, they'll likely be able to tell you. James at ext. 114 is a nice guy. Mikegug www.facebook.com/theresistancemusic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
