CARR AMPLIFIERS OWNER’S MANUAL Revised 23 February 2012...
Page 3
Sportsman Instructions Thank you for purchasing a Carr Sportsman amplifier. The Sportsman fuses the insistent purity of ‘60s American 1x10 reverb-style amps with the more aggressive dual 6V6 power section of the late ‘50s yielding enhanced sonic span and control. Tones ranging from clear and snappy to Texas pushed twang to intercontinental grind are all under the hood of the Sportsman.
The Sportsman can only use matched pairs of 6V6 power tubes. Carr Amplifiers selects and tests the finest current production tubes specifically for each amplifier model. Caution should be used when buying replacement tubes from any dealer who does not have a return policy as all tubes can have problems (NOS tubes are susceptible to microphonics and failure too).
