I have the B800 and can only imagine how devastating this one is. Bump for a great amp.

I just replaced my B1500 with two B800 amps so I could run a clean rig and effected rig simultaneousy. I'm selling my Thunderfunk 550B w/ "the switch" (an awesome amp) because I really can't find a reason to keep it after falling for Carvins. They're simple in design (works for a dummy like me) and the sound is on par w/ the best amps I've heard/played thru. And power..... where else can you get 1900 watts for this kind of $$$?


bumpage for a killer deal!!

I'll join in for a big bump on this amp!! I'm thinking about it, I also sold my Thunderfunk 550B because I found I was using my Carvin B800 more often. I was looking for another B800 to have as a spare, but this B1500 is looking more & more tempting.....

Don't wait too long, B1500s sell pretty quickly from what I've seen.
