Carvin X100B Guitar Amplifier 80s USA
$600
Priced to sell!
Been my main amp for a few years but I've gone combo now.
This amp is actually awesome, no lie, it kicks arse. It is incredibly well-built, and has some seriously handy options included.
It does 100w, 50w and 25w. I never really had to use it above 50, but 100 sounds E N O R M O U S and will make the room shake at 4 on the dial.
Push pull for leads and brights, giving this amp a number of voice options, the reverb is big and comfy, and works!
The gain is BIG, but note that it is an 80's amp so it doesn't djent, but it WILL doom! These were noted for bridging the gap between Fender and Marshall with it's crisp cleans and vicious gain.
Used by Frank Zappa, Steve Vai, Jefferson Starship and Warrant, it's not as well known as many of the big-name amps but it has earned a lot of respect for its tone, playability, options and reliability. They're kinda like the vintage Peaveys for toughness.
Recently replaced preamp tubes, nothing wrong with the power tubes, though I haven't changed them in the years I have owned it.
This thing never sounded bad for me.
A super reliable workhorse chock full of classic tones, takes pedals well, and won't let you down, and you won't find another amp this good at such a price!
(Can include a 80's Yamaha 140w 412 for another $200, they work very well together.)
