What We Think

Condition: Used, Excellent

This isn't just an amp; it's a hand-wired, heirloom-quality tone machine built in the USA. This rare Black Gator Carr Mercury V delivers the dynamic punch of two 6V6GT power tubes and four 12AX7 preamp tubes, pushing spectacular, touch-sensitive tones through a custom Celestion Creamback 12" speaker.

From chimey cleans to thick, saturated crunch, the integrated attenuator lets you unlock glorious cranked-amp sound at any volume. Meticulously crafted with premium components, this boutique amplifier is a genuine investment piece. Claim this exceptional tone vault today!

About Manufacturer

Like you, all of us at Carr Amplifiers are guitarists. We share your love of the guitar, and we feel very fortunate to build amplifiers for a living at our shop in Pittsboro, North Carolina. And although we are understandably proud of our unique circuit designs, meticulous point-to-point construction, premium components and hand-crafted cabinets, our success has ultimately been the result of one simple fact; discerning guitarists continue to enthusiastically embrace the tone, reliability and versatile nature of our amplifiers. Perhaps it's because we view guitar amps as being as much an instrument as the guitar itself, and we truly believe that an amplifier should become a personal extension of every player. To that end, we strive to design and build amps with a distinct character and sonic personality, and the flexibility and practical features that will inspire you to create your very own signature sound at volume levels appropriate for home, studio and stage.
