According to Musicradar.com, at Winter NAMM 2009 next week, Carvin Guitars will be unveiling the all-new STEVE VAI Legacy II Series amplifiers.
The Legacy II amps represent years of development, design and testing between Carvin engineers and Steve Vai. The 3-channel, all-tube Legacy II features all-new circuit designs that have been reviewed and tweaked by renowned amp designer Benjamin Fargen of Fargen Amps.
According to Fargen, the result is "a powerful blend of high-end boutique sound and rock-solid American manufacturing". Sounds like a mighty fine thing to say!
"The Legacy II is a dream amp," says Vai. "It's simple, versatile and the sound is creamy and warm. Finally there is an amplifier that has a Master Volume control that can raise or lower the overall sound coming out of the speakers without changing its saturation or tone. Although the sound has retained the integrity of the original Legacy, there is now an added channel that acts as a boost on the clean channel giving it a bit more hair. No need to keep dreaming, it's here."Read more here.
