BUMP!
***discounted price!***
Here we have an amazing opportunity to pick up a very original and super cool guitar by the guys at Carlino guitars USA.
This is an amalgamation of 3 different guitars wrapped in one: Dean ML, BC Rich mockingbird and the Ibanez Iceman.
It's been in storage for a good part of its life and still have the plastics on the back covers. It's "almost MINT" albeit a small make on the front.
Here's the email from the company:
"Carlino Identity #021 of the first 100 built
Trans Sahara Burst Flame
This model I call the Identity it has been a design
I initially made in high school that was the culmination of my favorite guitars wrapped into one. I do have others but this one has some smooth moves,
A melding of the different parts in such a way that it looks right.
We started with Sapele mahogany for the 2 piece body and the three piece neck.
The top is 5/16" solid Subtly Flamed Maple Top for tone and is bound in a seamless single bound creme designed binding that is seamless on the body and none on the headstock .
The flame of this top is not unlike the top of a '59LP burst
I bought the wood for this top at place called the Olde Schwambe Mill where I live
The wood was stored in a shack out back. It's pretty much an old picture frame factory and the guy I spoke with said , "there's no curly maple back there but go look if you want"...So I did
And I walk out with a piece 48" long 12 inches wide and 3" thick still with the bark on it on one side, he had said the stuff was back there for decades and it was dried perfectly, not a crack or a split anywhere. The sunburst finish really emphasized the flame in some areas and it looks old school
The fingerboard is dark ebony with a 12" radius and a 24 3/4" scale and jumbo frets with abalone block inlays
Floyd Rose Original Tremelo, Wilkinson 21:1 ratio tuners and Seymour Duncan double creme '59 pickups
The neck feel is a soft V/C shaped neck with rolled over binding for a comfortable and fast feel.
It'd definately a heavy guitar weighing in at 9.5 lbs but with heavy guitar...
comes great tone....
The tone...all Les Paul style sounding with thick fat chords, lots of bite and searing lead solos.
If you like the guitars that made me design this one, you'll Love this guitar
The finish we chose for this one is natural with all black hardware
and a custom black Crocodile tolex covered black crushed velvet form fit case is included
Currently Rick Nielsen, Paul Crook, Piggy D (Rob Zombie), and others are playing these guitars right now.
James Hetfield from Metallica gets a black Impulse very soon... seen here
http://carlinoguitars.com/CarlinoImpulsePrototype.html
and newer players like Linda Lou from the all girl band Cockpit and
Piggy D from Rob Zombie getting the Identity Basses coming out soon"
I'm the single owner of this guitar and you won't find another around like it.
Like many other guitar makers, you'll find they made inexpensive models made in Korea on the internet but none that are USA custom made.
She has an INCREDIBLE top, super smooth to play and the double cremes wail.
Comes with COA.
Willing to post at owners expense.
If you want to be original in a world full of copies, consider this unique weapon of choice.
Thanks very much for looking!
