Amplifier Selection Tool

New Foot Controllers

The new Foot Controllers are now available as an option for all current 3 channel amps. This simplifies the channel changes to a single one button press per channel, and also communicates everything through a standard 3 Pin XLR mic cable. THe new controller is extremely high quality and uses a detachable XLR-XLR microphone cable for easy and availabler replacement.
I am working on an ugrade solution for current players with 5 Pin XLR amps that want to ugrade to the new foot controller. We also have a MIDI interface on the horizon too.
We decided against the front panel controls because the new controller is designed to be an integrated part of the amplifier, rather like a keyboard is to a computer. The use of standard 3pin mic cables allows the player to choose any length of cable they want.

Facebook Me !!!

I know, you hear it all the time and with the increasing number of people on my own personal facebook, I decided to make one specific for Carol-Ann. Feel free to like us.

Welcome

"Alan's amps have a very unique tone. They are smooth (when called upon), growly and very articulate. A combination I have never experienced before. The midrange is very expressive and reminds me a lot of a human voice. I have two and have ordered a third. I buy them because I like them, pretty simple. They can take a lot of punishment. (Run really hard for 2 hours, then loaded into a case and on to the next city, 200 nights a year) I highly recommend these amps for anybody who's into improving their live or studio rig. Plus he is a nice guy.... and not afraid of 100 watts!!! Rare these days! "

Joe Bonamassa

"I used a Carol Ann for most of the lead guitar work on my new project and contacted them to let them know how incredible the amplifier was. I tried endless amounts of amps searching for my tone and this amp is simply built just for how I play.

Dan Spitz - Founder Member of Anthrax

"Bold Clean tones. Creamy, sweet and extremely dynamic overdrive tones. Superb Master Volume Circuit. The OD2 is a bracing experience for anyone who thinks they've seen and heard it all in boutique land"

Guitar Player Magazine - November 2010

"This little brown amp head with an unassuming company name like Carol-Ann has made me a believer. In as long as I’ve played guitar, I’ve never been so taken off guard by the way an amp sounded or felt, especially considering how many I’ve played. "
