Carr Amplifiers Mercury V | [Sound Demo]

Ben Brandt lets it rip on the Mercury V from Carr Amplifiers. Don't let the lightweight form factor and the 6V6s fool you, this small but mighty all-valve 16W 1x12 combo gives you all of the classic British rock flavours you're after with none of the back pain. The extra variety provided by the series/parallel switch and 3-position boost switch means not only do you not need to worry about patch cables, but you can achieve a liquid sustain and roaring, vocal lead sound that the amps it's inspired by could only dream of! And all of this is achieved with exceptional touch sensitivity at any volume level thanks to the built-in attenuator! Oh... and don't forget about that beautiful Carr tube-driven reverb!
