 You are bidding on a 2011 Carvin V3M head in very good condition. The amp was only gigged twice, both in a non-smoke environments. The amp has been retubed with a Eurotubes Carvin Gold Pin tunes, which is described below. This has helped eliminate the fizziness of the stock amp (check the Carvin forums, and you'll see it comes up a lot). This retube made the amp rock, and is suitable for classic rock, hard rock, and some metal (if you crank the presence and gain on Channel 1, you will get that fizzy buzzsaw sound that the kids love these days...)


Carvin V3M Gold Pin Option
Price: $132.50 
Description: Looking for less grit and a smooth singing tone? Then the gold pin option will take you there. The gold pin option uses a matched quad of the JJ EL84's for power along with four gold pin ECC83S's with one being current balanced for the phase inverter. Smooth, smooth SMOOTH!

You can view all of the specs of this amp at Carvin.com, but in a nutshell, it's a 50watt amp with a switch to knock down the power  to 22 watts and 7 watts. This basically lowers the headroom, allowing better-sounding high-gain sounds at more reasonable volumes. I've used the amp at both an outdoor festival (50 watt mode) and at a quieter indoor party ( 7 watts), and it worked as advertised. The amp also features footswitchable reverb, footswitchable boost (+/- 6dB), and three footswitchable channels, each with multiple modes. The head also has blue and red LEDs that light up inside, which are pretty cool, too. I am also including the footswitch, which is fully functional.

The amp has been very well cared for, and all knobs and switches work perfectly, with no scratchiness. I will package and ship the amp carefully, but this thing is a tank (about 22lbs).

I can't find a hard copy of the manual, but it is available at Carvin.com or I can email it to you.

Please ask all questions prior to bidding.

Thanks for looking, and happy bidding!
