This is the oldest lefty Carvin bass I've ever come across. Never seen another one: https://reverb.com/item/91688884-1972-c ... sa-natural Not much info out there in the way of specs, but it's my understanding these were 30" scale basses and the necks were made by Hofner: http://carvinmuseum.kieselmuseum.com/decade/72-basses.html And this is the only sound sample I was able to find: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUgmhSty5sw |

Cool indeed! The SB60 had a 4 year run...that listing on Reverb is mislabeled as a 1972 - it’s actually a 1973-75, as evident by the headstock inlay and bridge cover. The SB60 was followed by the SB61 (1976), and SB125 (1977) which were both 1 year-only models- therefore in theory even more rare! I was extremely fortunate to snag this SB125 for what was a steal back in 2019. I've never seen another Lefty: https://reverb.com/item/27827467-carvin ... dium=share http://leftybassist.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=10016 It’s an absolute joy to play- and it sounds amazing! |
