Carl Martin Customshop 50

[goodhonk]

i do think it sounds good, and i'm sure since it's carl martin it's built well.  just not sure what sets it apart from other amps.

[goodhonk]

$3600

[goodhonk]

if it's anything like other carl martin products you should be able to pick up a used one for $500.

does it have the necessary headroom?

...and a 14 position input impedence selector?

...and series/parallel effects loop? ...at each gain stage?

..builtin 8 channel looper?

8-12 floating output Vdc lines for pedals?

effects board that shell-clamps to the back of the cab for transport?

cable-sensor to alert you if you've plugged in your directional, shielded cable backwards?

4Glte autodialup to Pete Cornish's celly for mid-set emergency housecalls?

[PKTrono]

if you can't hear that your directional cable is plugged in backwards then you obviously shouldn't be wasting money on things you can't appreciate. you don't buy paintings for a blind man

There were already 2 amps made for pedals that came out years ago.

Fender Twin Reverb
Roland JC120

Plus there are plenty of other old amps use can use for pedal platforms such as old 1980's Yamaha and Acoustic amps

[Player99]

Needs motorized knobs with presets.

lol I'd like to get some of the people who think they can hear "directional cables" into a double-blind listening test and LMHO.

[goodhonk]

nevermind

[PKTrono]

sorry honk (as though you made it). cool idea but terrible price. if you could afford a $3600 amp, couldn't you just buy an amp with great cleans AND dirt? as if they were mutually exclusive

[PKTrono]

i've only seen three minutes of the video though, so maybe there's more to it. lefort mentioned some stuff that would actually be pretty cool for a "for pedals" amp, all things aside

Doesn't really blow me away. My bassman does quite well with pedals anyway.

[Ancient Mariner]

Sounds nice enough in that demo but V30s? Really? That's a very niche tonality and response.
