Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
The Carr Super Bee 12" is a 10-watt, single-channel tube combo amplifier housed in a Tweed/Black/Tweed cabinet measuring 21" H x 17" W x 10" D and weighing 40 lbs. Its tube complement consists of two 12AX7s, one 12AT7, two 6BM8 power tubes, and a 6CA4 rectifier. It drives a single 12" Carr Valiant speaker and features an onboard 4th Generation Attenuator capable of scaling output from full power down to 2 watts. Control options include Volume, Treble, Mid, Bass, Reverb, and Attenuator knobs alongside a 3-position Sting Switch.
