Why would Carvin guitars want machine made wood guitars?

For several reasons: 1) Greater precision 2) Greater consistency 3) Reduces the time requirement for each custom instrument from 18 months or more to roughly 8 weeks. 4) Better price Point of clarification: Almost no custom luthiery, from small luthiers like Suhr, to large manufacturers like Gibson or PRS, are completely hand-built anymore. In much the same way as Carvin guitars, most companies use CNC to carve the bodies and route the cavities. Also as on Carvin guitars, all the finishing and detailing is done by hand.
