Carvin Amplifiers

2013 Sponsor – 23rd Annual LA Music Awards

Carvin Amplifiers has been designing and building guitar amplifiers since 1946 with all tube designs, solid state designs and blends of both.  Our amplifiers have been used by many artists, session players and working musicians with years of solid performance.  The all tube 100 watt V3 and 50 watt V3m series provides two high gain channels and a clean channel. The all tube 100 watt Legacy 3 series, designed with and used by Steve Vai, provides 3 channels of Steve’s signature sound and versatility for any player.  Our Vintage series brings back the classic tone of the dirty blues players and singing clean guitar.  The X100B, a reissue of our 80s and early 90s flagship amplifier, is the perfect blend of preamp tube tone, solid state equalization, and all tube 100W power amplifier.  The SX series has been perfected over the years and includes our solid state tube emulation and Smart Effects switching.  The Acoustic series provides amplification for acoustic instruments and includes microphone and play back channels for the all in one amplifier and PA system when needed.  The TS100 provides a 50/50 watt stereo all tube power amplifier for rack guitar systems, and allows you to add more cabinets to our other guitar amplifiers as Steve Vai has done.
