On Hold - Carr Slant6V 2x12 Combo 2007 Black

No Sales Tax For Customers Outside Of California.

This Carr Slant6V has been very well cared for over the years by our employee, Tim, who recently traded it in.  I've seen his home where the amp was regularly used - he keeps a clean domicile and takes care of his gear! He retained the manual and pedal to keep the package complete.

The amp is original and issue free.  Tubes were tested to make sure they're good to go for the next owner.

The Carr Slant 6V 2x12 Combo amplifier epitomizes the marriage of vintage tone and modern reliability, crafted meticulously by Steve Carr and his team. This boutique amplifier, celebrated for its tonal versatility and impeccable build quality, appeals to guitarists who seek both classic sounds and contemporary features.

At the heart of the Slant 6V is its dual-channel design, providing a broad sonic palette. Channel 1, often referred to as the "blackface" channel, delivers pristine, bell-like clean tones reminiscent of the classic Fender amplifiers from the 1960s. This channel excels in producing articulate and sparkling sounds, making it ideal for genres that demand clarity and definition. Channel 2, on the other hand, offers a more aggressive, tweed-like character with a touch of British crunch. It allows players to dial in anything from warm, rich overdrives to searing, high-gain distortions, accommodating a wide range of musical styles.

The amplifier's power section is driven by a pair of 6V6 tubes, which contribute to its distinctive tonal signature. The 6V6 tubes are known for their smooth, warm breakup and dynamic response, qualities that the Slant 6V leverages to deliver a nuanced and expressive performance. Additionally, the amplifier includes a switchable power option, allowing players to choose between 18 watts and 40 watts. This flexibility enables the amp to adapt to different performance settings, from small clubs to larger venues, without compromising its tonal integrity.

Construction-wise, the Slant 6V is a testament to Carr's dedication to quality. Each unit is hand-wired using top-tier components, ensuring durability and superior sound fidelity. The 2x12 combo configuration is outfitted with two custom-designed speakers that enhance the amp's ability to project its rich, full-bodied sound. These speakers are carefully selected to complement the amplifier's tonal characteristics, providing a balanced response across the frequency spectrum.

Aesthetically, the Slant 6V exudes a classic elegance with a modern touch. Its solid cabinet construction is wrapped in durable, attractive tolex, and features a distinctively angled front panel that not only contributes to its unique look but also aids in sound dispersion. This design ensures that the amp's sound fills the room evenly, making it an excellent choice for live performances.

Guitarists who play the Carr Slant 6V appreciate its responsiveness and the ease with which it transitions between different tones. Whether it's delivering lush, clean sounds or gritty, overdriven textures, the Slant 6V maintains clarity and depth, allowing musicians to express their creativity fully. Its reliability and consistent performance have earned it a loyal following among professional players and tone purists alike.
