11/13/2022 0 Comments Goodsell unibox amp![]() It's nice to get quick responses, and it seems he ranks up there with Richard Goodsell, who is the nicest gear builder I've ever dealt with and met. Steve Carr sent a note back saying it was built in June, 2005. I sent a note to Carr Amps last evening asking for a date for when the amp was built. I'm pretty much ignorant as to the subtle differences among different power tubes. Before I started playing, but after the amp was turn on and warmed up, it was so quiet that I though I had inadvertently turned it off or hit the standby switch.Īs I said at the beginning, the previous owner had added NOS GE power tubes. The amp can get pretty loud, but I haven't opened it up fully yet.Īt the same time, the amp is the quietest amp I own. The amp also has a nice spring reverb but I barely use reverb, sometimes just a touch to add some dimension. The Rambler has a great tremolo, and reminds me of the tremolo in my Goodsell amps, which to me have the finest tremolos I've ever heard. But, I found that when pushed in either triode (14W) or pentode (28W) mode, it does have a pleasing driven sound. This amp has a well deserved clean reputation. But, YouTube has a slew of recordings of this and the other Carr models. Nick, sorry, I have no way to create a recording of how it sounds. I do like to change out speakers, so who knows what I'll end up with. I've also seen some Ramblers with Eminence Wizards. I understand new ones now come with Eminence Elsinore speakers. In 2005-6, Carr stopped using the Kingpin when the speaker's basket maker went out of business. I know it is a ceramic speaker, but that's about all I do know. Oddjobb, the stock speaker is an Eminence Kingpin 60. Please Note: (The Dr-Z Brake Lite Attenuator has been removed and will be listed separately for sale.Thanks all. The amp will be shipped via UPS Ground with tracking and insurance included. Included with the amp is a Studio amp cover, original tremolo foot-switch and power cord. The design of the Goodsell Unibox 10 makes it a very touch-sensitive playing amp and so easy to hit the amps sweet spot simply by controlling the amp with the guitars volume control. Speed & Depth Controls for the tremolo are also very effective including true tremolo circuit bypass when controls are set to zero. producing juicy saturation, plenty of harmonics and endless sustain! The tone control is very effective with small adjustments making big sonic changes. But shows its true colors as you push the volume to breakup. The amp has a polite cleanness at lower volume levels. This amp, in my humble opinion, has some of the best breakup/overdrive ever in a small combo package. The overall weight is about 29 lbs making for an easy grab & go players amp. The Unibox 10 is a handwired amp made with premium components and sturdy cabinet construction. And the upgraded 12" Eminence Patriot Cannabis Rex speaker delivers the warm balanced tone as one would expect from a Goodsell amp. The true bypass tremolo circuit can deliver lush pulsating tremolo better then a Fender blackface. Its unique tone & breakup come from (2) 6BM8/ECL82 power tubes in a push/pull configuration. This is the ultimate combo amp for tone and breakup! It is a 10-watt power amp that can handle everything from small venues, studios and home practice. His signature, upon completion, is written on the inside cabinet wall. This is a hand-crafted boutique amp by Richard Goodsell in Atlanta, GA. The amp is in excellent condition both cosmetically and operational. Up for auction is my Goodsell Unibox 10 'Blackline' combo 1x12. ![]()
