Congrats.....I too have that exact guitar and it is a wonderful instrument!
Santa rewarded me with a new Carvin C350 acoustic, pictures to follow, it arrived today and I have been playing on it this evening. It had a near perfect setup upon arrival and only required minor adjustment for tuning to be dead on.
It is a great sounding Mahogony solid top , great finish and the neck is just outstanding. It came in a great vintage hard case and I'm a happy Dad tonight.
Like I said pictures will follow.
Congrats.....I too have that exact guitar and it is a wonderful instrument!
LIVE AND LET ROCK!!
Congratulations, street! I've seen those in the Carvin catalog and they look sweet. Plus I've read good things about them here and elsewhere.
Looking forward to the pics, and Merry Christmas to you.

How come I see no photos?
Because I haven't posted them yet?? Maybe today.
What are the neck shape and dimensions like. I know the Carvin electrics are great feeling and low action but I don't know anything about the Cobalt series. Does yours have electronics?
Where is dem photos?

Very cool Sreet!

Hey Congrads, I just bought one off eBay and it just came in. I buy and sell alot of guitars and one thing that I have always heard from Pro players is that Carvin has the Best Neck of any guitar on the market. I have owned the electrics and acoustics alike. Now I know that the Cobalt line of guitars are not made in the USA, but they are Adjusted and Set Up in the independant nation of california !!! I have tuned the guitar to Concert pitch and will evaluate it before leaving feedback. So far, Man for the money this guitar is Beautiful, Sounds Fantastic and Plays like Butter. We'll see where it goes from here.
I wish my family would give me such a gift for Christmas, Your a Rich Man to have a Good Family. Actually my family would not know what guitar I am interested in at any given time or they would. By the way, Where in the Mountains of Kentucky are you from. I am from Somerset, but I am descended from Harlan County. ??
God Bless
