Carvin B1500 club

Just got my B1500 and looking forward to feeling i mean hearing it.. does anyone know wher e to get a knob apparently some one lost one of the knobs and just put on some other kind of knob on it? I hope it works ok ..got it from GC used from a store in another state so crossing my fingers.. i figure if they can through them around on concrete i should be ok..

I bought a B1500 through guitar center also in another state. They did a crappy job of packing it but it still arrived in one pice. I am very glad I bought the pro plan because about 4 months into using it every week in a loud rock band it died. I sent it to the repair center per the terms of the pro plan. Several weeks later they told me they chose to refund my money vs. repairing it. They mailed me a check. I was bummed because I liked the amp and it was very affordable but at least I got my money back.

WOW is all i can say..just WOW.. this AMP ROCKS and i didnt even push it./.. WOW

That's a very odd story. Methinks the repair man liked it so much he decided to give you money and keep the beast after he fixed it.

Think you should have a seafoam green SR5. The tobacco burst clashes with the lavender/green cab.

 

[tomydacat]

WHOA what do those cost.. nice

This bass contrasts better with the cab, but I didnt grab a pic with the B1500.

That is a DuallyT build by Mark Robertson at greenboy Audio. Custom work, and prices vary depending on options.

i will have to look into that for sure . the 810 is a TAD heavy

This cab weighs about 73 pounds and is as loud as a good 810.

 

[tomydacat]
