News and interesting stuff from Carr Amps.
The Sportsman sound files have been posted to the Carr Amps website. The tracks were played and recorded by our friend Jason Barker using a Sportsman 1×12 combo with a Briggs Avatar and a Gibson ES-335. Here is a sample:
Carrmouflage (2.42mb mp3) – Gibson ES-335 (humbuckers), Sportsman 1×12 combo
Listen to the rest on the Sounds page!
Inspired by mid ’60s American reverb-type amps, the Carr Sportsman is a versatile performer in a compact and portable package.
Fusing the insistent purity of ’60s American 1×10 reverb-style amps with the more aggressive
dual 6V6 power section of the late ’50s, we bring you the Sportsman! Tones ranging from clear
and snappy to Texas pushed twang to intercontinental grind are all under the hood of the Sportsman.
The combination of Volume, Headroom, and Mid controls puts this tonal palette in your calloused
fingertips.

Looking for a Carr in your area? Three new dealers will soon receive their first Carr amps:
We’ve updated the website to fully integrate the Artemus, including sound files from our friend Jay Manley. Also, because the Hammerhead Mk II was discontinued at the beginning of this year, all of the Hammerhead Mk II information has been moved to the Support section of the site.
In the process of archiving the Hammerhead info, two new pages were created: Sounds Archive and Press Archive. The Press Archive, though containing nothing not previously available, groups reviews of the bygone models El Moto, Imperial, Hammerhead (the original), and Hammerhead Mk II. The Sounds Archive, in addition to housing the Hammerhead Mk II sounds, brings the original Imperial sound files back to the site (for your amusement only). We suspect the old El Moto and Hammerhead sounds are lurking about somewhere, but we have yet to locate any notes or settings lists which would help in their identification. The Press and Sounds Archives can be accessed through the Support page under Discontinued Models.
¡Olé!
We’ve got lots of new dealers to welcome (and assimilate into the collective–resistance is futile!):
