F/T - Carvin Bel Air 50w 2x12 combo


Recommended Posts

Just got this recently in a trade.



It's a fantastic US-Made all-valve amp, the clean channel is all Fender Twin-like goodness with those glassy trebles and that spanky midrange and possibly a touch more low-end thickness, the dirt channel is somewhere between a Bassman and a Vox, works best at lower gain and it's juicy and fat and has a lot of chiming sustain.

It'll be a great amp with pretty much any guitar, but I think it works spectacularly well with Fenders. It also loves pedals. Comes with cover and footswitch.

It's a LOUD bastard, I A/B'd it with a 100w Marshall DSL stack last night and the Carvin was louder, so this'll do anything you need it to (apart from being a quiet bedroom amp).

Here's the site:

As you can see they go for £864, the footswitch is another £36 and apparently you can only get them from Carvin California, so God knows what that adds up to in shipping and duty.

Not really interested in a sale, although if someone wants to give me £600 for it that would be cool.

I'm looking for Gibsons and similar. Ideally some sort of DC Junior or a Special or something like that. Will also consider trades for Telecaster, Esquire.

Based in Preston Lancs. with no transport, you're welcome to come to me or I'm open to couriers etc.
