Hi all,

I'm selling my 1997 Carter D-10 8+7. It has Wallace TrueTone pickups, it was upgraded at the factory to have Carter BCT technology, it's presently about 1" over-height and has absolutely no issues, apart from the odd little scratch from being used at live gigs. Only reason for selling is, that I don't play out anymore and simply don't need it.

Final price reduction to 2400€ + shipping.

Ole

Hi Ole
I noticed that the Carter logo is a newer type that's been used from around 2004. Have you replaced the sticker or is it a newer guitar?
See you in Dublin?
Peter

Hi Peter,
Good to hear from you!

I have to say that I don't know about the logo - I bought the guitar in 2005 and I certainly haven't changed it.

According to the serial number, it should be a 1997 and before I bought it, I asked the Carter folks if they could confirm, that it had been upgraded at the factory to having the BCT system and they did - I still have the mail with their confirmation.

The only things I have done to it, was installing a liftkit and some extra pulls, all with original parts bought from Carter. At the same time I bought an original toolkit and manual, which of course also comes with the guitar.

I sure hope to be able to attend Dublin this year, but it depends largely on funds - money's a little tight.

Say hello to Mette and I hope to see you both!

Ole

How do you like the True Tone pickups compared to the slandered George L's

Paul,

This guitar came with these pick'ups already installed and I've never played a steel with George L's pick'ups, so I'm not really qualified to answer that question.

I can say though, that I also have an old Emmons original, with original pick'ups on it and the difference between the basic sound of those two guitars isn't really all that big - that's with ME playing them, mind you! (Puts on flame suit, ducks under cover and all that!) (The Emmons is BLACK, so cut me some SLACK Smile)

Seriously: Let's not start a war over this, the two guitars just have many of the same basic characteristics in their sounds! (or is that TONE?)
