Description

A 2003 Carr Mercury tube combo amp in great shape. Aside from a minor scrape on the Carr logo the amp is in excellent cosmetic condition. With its built-in attenuator, the Mercury shines anywhere from the big stage to the bedroom. This amp has been cleaned and tested. It is fully functional and sounds fantastic.

Manufacturer's Description...

With selectable power from 8 watts down to 1/10th of a watt, the single EL34-powered Mercury is ideal for apartments, studios, and intimate performance venues. The Mercury inspires visions of a classic cabinet design from a time long ago, but within the chassis of the Mercury you'll discover an inspiring and truly innovative circuit (along with utterly remarkable tone). While it is true that your friends, band mates and family members will admire the Mercury for its good looks and 'polite' power rating, Mercury owners seem to cherish Carr's newest amp for many other practical reasons. Their exclusive power attenuating circuit enables the Mercury to be played at 8, 2, 1/2 and only 1/10 watts, with no appreciable change in tone, yet the Mercury easily yields enough clean headroom for club work. Add their renowned reverb circuit, a 3-position boost switch for subtle-to-intense output tube distortion, plus the incomparably thick and rich tone of a single EL-34 power tube, and the Mercury will earn its rightful place among your most treasured instruments.
