Carr Amplifiers Mercury 112 Combo

This amp is made in 2003. Best low wattage amp I've ever played. I'm a bedroom player and now for the first time, I know what total all tube saturation amp sounds like. Will get rid of all my other amps and just keep this one and my, soon to come, Kinsley Deluxe 1. Just one channel, no effects loops, no headphone, no line out. Just a simple great sounding amp with no frills! Power is just right for me.
Never new amp could sound so good.

I play rock and blues with Les Paul and Strats mainly. This amp suits my style perfectly. Fender clean to high gain rock. NO Metal distortion though but a little pedal and you're there. I love the 4 attenuation settings which allows me to play at home in the middle of the night to perfect volume level during the day.

Just bought but I don't expect any issues since it's so well put together.

Have not had to use them yet.

Been playing for 25 years and have owned and tried just about everything. Since I don't have any more need for big power amps, I've been frustrated trying to find a low power tube amp that sounds great and I found it. I love everything about it. It's pricy but so what. You get what you paid for. This amp will out last me for years to come. There is nothing else on the market comparable to the Mercury.

This is the most complex lush sounding low wattage amp I have ever heard! The FOUR volume settings, THREE built in gain channels and SUPER THICK Reverb all on an 8 watt amp is Fantastic. It is a Loud
8 watts!

Everything I could Possibly ask for in a small amp! I have coaxed beautiful clean Fender sounds, sparkling Vox sounds and full out Marshall sounds from this little beauty; however I must say that the coolest sounds from this amp just may be the unique sounds that it can create that are all it's own! Steve Carr is incredible. There are all these little nuances that this amp can provide but at the same time can jump right up and get in your face! I currently play Les Pauls. 1956 w/ P-90's and 1958 w/ Buckers both from the Historic shop and both Tone Machines!
This amp is perfect for me. I play Allmans, Peter Green, Keef Riff ect..This amp can Hit the Nail on the Head if you have it in your fingers! Remember "With The Power Of Soul Anything Is Possible!"

#001 Had it for a couple months. With Steve Carr's amps, and I mean all of them this category is a joke! Cream of the Crop!

Steve Carr is a gentleman and a genius!!!
Eric at Willcutt Guitars is one of the Coolest Cats in the business, He will spend as much time w/ you as you need and knows TONE!!! I recommend him as your dealer without reservation or hesitation. Eric is the Man!

If you like Versatility in a low wattage amp; look no further. I can play house parties w/ this amp with no problem. I have a small child and can still fire this bad boy up and let rip without even disturbing anyone. My Wife says "It may be the most sensible money I have ever spent on a piece of musical equipment!" I know there are some of you folks out there that are hip to that! Tone Box!! I Love it! Thanks Steve!

A great new model from Steve Carr. This is the perfect studio or apartment amp..or any application that requires a cranked amp sound at a reduced volume. Amp is only 8 watts, but a loud 8 watts..has a step down power attenuator to step the output down to 2, 1/2, or 1/10th of a watt.. great Carr reverb.

This amp sounds like a fat princeton reverb to me in the regular mode..there are 2 boost modes that offer a Marshall type crunch and a Boogie/Dumble type tone..However..this amp I feel serves a defined purpose..Dont expect it to be loud enough for a gig..although on the full boost mode and the 8 watt setting it can cut a rehersal volume..for gigging you would have to mic it..It really excells as a studio quality amp or for anyone who has a need to have a full tone at bedroom levels...let the baby sleep and you now can have a great fat blues or rock sustaining sound.

Carr amps are built with the highest quality..they are expensive..but you get what you pay for..

Very friendly service..I have spoken to Steve and Tim a few times...both are very eager to help with any concerns..they care about what they produce..and they care about you being satisfied. Emails are always returned in a timely fashion.

35 years of playing different amps..I have owned everything over the years..although I have always favored a good Blackface or brown covered fender amp until now..now Carr has it all..If you want a great blues amp that kills a Deluxe reverb..buy a Carr Rambler..if you need more versitility..but his Slant6..if you just want a great little Studio amp..check out the Mercury..very cool little amp
