I recently obtained a second hand Carvin AC50. It came with the strangest strings on it I have ever encountered. They felt like they were aluminum flat wounds. As in aluminum on the outside. And, they sounded really weird. Like a synthesizer more than a guitar. They had to go. I figured the original strings that Carvin installs at the factory would be a good starting point, so I checked Carvin's site. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that Carvin sells LaBella tapewounds, which come on new AC50 guitars for about half of what everyone else sells them for, with free shipping currently. I also noticed that all their string sets were very inexpensive compared to other sellers of strings. When I called to place the order, I asked the sales rep about the low prices and he informed me that all their strings come from LaBella and the price reflects their direct to the customer policy. Awesome!! So, if you want a killer deal on LaBella strings......Carvin is the place to get them. Plus, I live in Florida and Carvin is in California, yet I got the strings in 2 days. Yay Carvin!!!
