We are pleased to welcome Carr Amplifiers to the Music Emporium! Highly recommended by the good folks at Collings, Carr's reputation for making stellar amplifiers is certianly well warranted. We are blown away.
One of Steve Carr's original models, the Rambler was designed to deliver a classic American 'deluxe' tone, and boy does it ever! There are several things that set this amp apart. It has a Pentode-Triode power switch, which effectively steps the power down from 28 watts pentode to 14 watts triode. These two different operation settings for the 6L6 output tubes can vary the tone from loud and punchy (Pentode) to a warmer vintage sound with thick midrange (Triode). There is a wonderful late 50s style tube tremolo that is smoother than average. However, what really sets this amp apart is the rich, complex tone it produces. Imagine the best deluxe you've ever heard, and then add in a whole new dimension of warmth with full, round overtones that sparkle and bloom in the most mesmerizing way possible. It's that good.
