My SB4000 arrived in January from Carvin in San Diego. It did require some fingerboard work by the local luthier after a few weeks. It developed a buzz on the E string at the 11th fret...which is apparently caused by truss rod pressure during the settling-in process 'Twas a minor thing to repair, and perhaps a good reason to have a proper set-up performed. The luthier switched-out the stock strings and it sounds ever so nice. The available tonal variations, from smooth jazz to Motown, Rock, etc. should keep you dialed in regardless of the music you play.
