Re: Carvin bel air

I was interested in the Bel Air a long while ago. From what I remember it sounded fantastic and has a good amount of headroom and some great crunch tones.

I particularly liked this demo of it.

Re: Carvin bel air

Steve Vai plays carvin amps... and I never heard anything bad about the bel air.
Carvin, to me, is just a weird company as far as their angle in how they get sales, etc. the catalogs and everything.

Carvin supposedly makes a competitor to Furman power conditioners and Monster Power that I've heard some raves about too.
