Re: Carvin VT50
Yeah I had one on my bench two week ago the VT50 1-12 version.
Had plenty of power and high plate voltage but I didn't keep my notes when I retubed and bias the amp.
Play through it and it was okay.

I have one of the originals with a 4 x 10" cab. i have modified it a good deal, and all i can say is it sounds wonderful but circuit board amps are a pain in the ass.

I gotta feeling that this one will get the Beasley treatment soon enough (as Beaze reaches for his stack of shiny new white fiberglas lunch trays.)TUBEDUDE wrote:but circuit board amps are a pain in the ass.

Re: Carvin VT50
Yeah Dustin the Beaze was kind enough to send some of those lunch boards to me it seems like good stuff. I better build another amp just to show off the white lunch tray boards.Leo_Gnardo wrote:I gotta feeling that this one will get the Beasley treatment soon enough (as Beaze reaches for his stack of shiny new white fiberglas lunch trays.)TUBEDUDE wrote:but circuit board amps are a pain in the ass.

Re: Carvin VT50
Haha! I've put those lunch trays to good use. Made a bunch of 5e3, Hoffman Vox and express boards out of them last week. Why? Hell I don't know. A PTP carvin? That could be fun.
