Archetypal EL84 tone meets 21st century innovation. The Carr Artemus will expand your notion of what the British AC-inspired amp can do. More dynamic, more expressive - simplicity redefined.
The Artemus delivers versatile EL84 clean tones with great openness and clarity to biting or smooth touch-sensitive overdrive. The fixed bias output stage offers wonderful punch with a smooth break-up when pushed. The Edge and Mid toggles sculpt tones from mellow to aggressive. The input modified cascode 12AX7 circuit emulates EF86 thickness and gain without problematic microphonics. This is a new interpretation of my favorite aspects of AC sounds with all the stellar Carr component, craftsmanship, and cabinet qualities.
This amp features Carr's "Brown Gator" color.
