A wonderfully nostalgic tone for those looking for something just a little different
For most of my teenage and young adult life, I had wanted to get the early 80s Carvin X-100B Series 3 guitar head. These were made popular with Steve Vai early on and also with Marty Friedman and Jason Becker. The tone is reminiscent of a Marshall JMP, which is what I believe the X-100 is originally modeled after. Two channels (Rhythm and Lead) built-in reverb, and again, that sweet round tone that was part of that 70s era Marshall JMP sound. So happy to finally have this and playing through a cabinet with Warehouse Veteran 30s, it sounds beastly!
