Can someone help identify what company/model this bass guitar is?
« on: March 29, 2014, 06:02:05 PM »
I'm just starting playing the bass guitar, along with my dad, so I'm pretty unfamiliar with bass guitars in comparison to their six-string counterparts. While I doubt I'd get one of these for quite awhile, I've been interested in figuring out what kind of bass guitar Skott Carino used in his brief stint in Death during the Human era (he played some additional bass parts on "Cosmic Sea," was featured in the music video for "Lack of Comprehension" and acted as the touring bassist for the Inhuman Tour). It looks positively gorgeous. :hat



As I said, I'm not very familiar with bass guitars and I can't tell what company made the instrument. Is it a Conklin? Warwick? Any help here would be greatly appreciated, both as a newbie bassist wanting to know more about the world of basses and as a die-hard Death fan. :tup :metal

It appears to be a Carvin 6 string.

It's actually a five string (the logo is what you mistook for the the sixth tuner), but yeah, after looking up Carvin's bass guitars, it's definitely a Carvin bass! Sweet! :hat Thanks man! :tup

They beat me to it. But to add reassurance, yes it is absolutely a Carvin.
