Customer Review
Posted on Carvin.com/bbs
A Carvin V3 owner took his amp
into a boutique amp store and
put the V3 head to head with the
following amps:
Bogner Uberschal
VHT Deliverance
Deizel Herbert
Mesa Road King
Bogner Ecstasy 101B
“Every single person who walked in
the amp room was absolutely amazed
by what they were hearing. No one
believed that $900 could sound that
good. To say we were all shocked is
the understatement of the year. Jaws
were hitting the floor at an alarming
rate. Boutique amp owners nearby
were blushing with envy and the
Carvin website was pulled up on their
computers behind the counter before
I could leave the store.
I’ve played every high dollar, high
gain, good tone’d boutique dream
amp I can think of and not a single one
of them can offer anything compelling,
either tone wise or feature wise, that
Carvin hasn’t either met or exceeded.
The sheer power and usability of this
amp’s gain is incredible. The low end
will shake the walls and the highs are
smooth, fluid and glassy.
This is truly a boutique toned numetal, old metal, hard rock, classic
rock, jazz and blues amp all wrapped
into a perfect, low priced solution.”
-Drew Lankford

When I considered having a signature series amp built, there were several important issues that
needed to be addressed. First, it had to sound superior to any other amp I’d ever come across and it
had to be built to withstand the abuse that a world tour could give it. It also had to be something
affordable for most musicians and not just a few privileged ones! It had to have the appearance of
class and integrity that reflects the sound. I’m thrilled to say The Legacy is all that I dreamed it could be.

Review by Jamie Rio
“ My first outing with the AG100D was at a typical club with my
four-piece rock band. I plugged my 12-string acoustic into channel
1 and I had an excellent guitar sound...My next challenge was to
try out a bass guitar...with the help of the five-band graphic EQ, we
found a very good bass sound...
I offered to play at a small local bar...I showed up with my 12-string in
one hand and the AG100D in the other...I had a great vocal and guitar
sound happening...All in all the AG100D fulfills all of Carvin’s claims
excellently and is very competitively priced”.

The boutique design of the BX1200 dual mono
block and the BX600 mono block bass heads offer
rich tone generated from discrete Class A preamps and the extensive equalization features.
TheBX1200wasrecentlyawardedBassPlayermagazine’s
Editor’saward.
“The BX1200 amp and BR410 cab are excellent
examples of Carvin’s philosophy. For around a thousand bucks, you get 1,200 clean watts and a cab that
can handle it. ... Ah, power is indeed intoxicating.”
