Carvin has a well-earned status for making superior custom instruments at a fair price. The CT6M helps Carvin continue their reputation for unmatched superiority. The instrument is perfect in nearly every facet. If you’re searching for a custom instrument that covers a wide variety of sonic territory, the Carvin CT6M will certainly make you happy. Let’s examine at the guitar’s details more carefully.
The instrument we reviewed featured a wonderful flamed maple carved top with a mahogany body. The CT6M came with a set-in neck with 22 medium-jumbo frets, and we opted for the stainless steel fret upgrade. Sperzel locking tuners are standard, as are Carvin’s Classic C22 humbucking pickups. The playability of the CT6M was just incredible.
If you’re used to upgrading stock pickups, you might actually be content with the Carvin C22 pickups in their stock configuration. We received the CT6M with a top notch SKB-designed case that provides a really solid fit for the CT6M. Carvin definitely has a winner on their hands with their CT6M.
