Carvin is proud to reintroduce one of it’s most popular guitar amps, the X100B. The original X-100B debuted in 1982, and was offered in several different designs through 1994. The original X100B was a mainstay on stage and on MTV, having been used by such notable artists as Steve Vai, Craig Chaquico, Warren Cuccurullo, Frank Zappa and many others. Steve Vai also played through X100B amps in the 1986 film Crossroads, starring Ralph Macchio. This colorful history, as well as requests from customers, has prompted Carvin to design an all-new X100B, the Series IV.The Series IV is offered in several versions: the X100B head, the XB412 half-stack, the XB812 full-stack, and the X212B combo. All models produce 100 watts of power, switchable to 25W or 50W. It has a clean and lead channels with master volume switchable to boost mode and a 4 button footswitch with LED indicators (Channel, Effects, Reverb, Boost).
The reissued X100B is available as a head and cabinet or combo version directly from Carvin. Credit: Carvin.
