Carr Amps Slant 6V 1×12 combo, Used
40 watt boutique Tube Guitar Amplifier with 2 channels!
Great sounding and versatile! Nice Shape!
With 4 6V6 power tubes, full/half power modes, and 2 foot switchable channels- clean and overdrive, the 40 watt Slant 6V from Carr Amps is a versatile stage amplifier! The Carr Slant 6V offers an impressive range of legendary British and American tones with unprecedented versatility. Thanks to its 3-way selectable output switch, Slant 6V provides usable power without sacrificing the warmth and clarity of tone these hand-built, all-tube amplifiers are known for. Two independent, foot-switchable channels provide the backbone of the Slant 6V. Channel One: Bridges shimmering clean tone with gutbucket, overdriven blues. Dual gain settings on Channel Two offer pure tube crunch, soaring sustain and fluid dynamic response.
The Slant 6V can be operated at half-power in cathode bias (18W) or fixed bias mode (22W), yielding tones reminiscent of early tweed and AC-style combos in cathode mode, and a punchier, more tightly defined sound in fixed bias mode. At full power, the Slant 6V runs four 6V6 output tubes split in cathode and fixed bias pairs, placing every conceivable classic tube tone at your fingertips. This particular Slant 6V is an earlier model with an effects loop. Footswitch and Padded Cover are included. Like all our used amps gear this amplifier is priced to move and sold as-is. It has been tested for tone and functionality. This amp has been gigged but taken care of. It does have some cosmetic scuffs and dings in the tolex, mainly along the bottom edge of the cabinet as it was stored and transported with the cover on
