I think he forgot to turn off the vocal mic. From the reflection, his hand never went to the vocal mic as usual. And when he finished playing he started talking without turning on the vocal mic. Unless he has a foot switch for the vocal mic.

@abassplayer4life bingo, and thx for noticing. I got a ProCo Power Mute. I'll take your comment as a compliment for noticing an improvement to my videos. I'll also take it as a compliment that you're so familiar w/ my videos, that you noticed I did something different :-). Thx brother. Rock on!

TTK you are becoming a shred god. You have gotten soooo muck better in the last couple of months its amazing. By the way the tone at the start of the vid was sick man. I totally dig the V3. Love your stuff man. Keep up the good work. And I don't like too far away from NJ. I would love a Tone Lounge tour man. Maybe you could make a contest to give one away!!

@dpdockery wow - that is quite the compliment.  thanks so much!!

This seriously sounds horrible LOL.

The problem comes in trying to define tonal variations on You Tube. You can go to all the V3 demos and they sound different. Worst thing is you have to order it. Best thing is they will take it back no questions asked if you don't like it. I looked at so many beat up used JCM800 Marshalls and high priced. I owned a 2203 100 wattt lead JCM800 with full stack in the early eighties and a 2204 50 watt lead JCM800 on a half stack mid 80's into the late 90's.Long gone.I am really digging the V3.

TK...you should make another video without diming the gain so much. The gain all the way up really drowns out what you are truing to do as a demo on this amp. I had one of these and liked it and for me my personal favorite was to turn the gain up to the sweet spot not dimed which is about the 1 o clock position on that amp. The master section on these is really what makes this amp shine...along with its price. Currently own a Legacy 2 half stack...

BONE CRUSHING!!!!!!!!!!!! \m/

[OddOneDownMusic]

is it just me or is this really fizzy? id like it if there wasnt so much fizz in it...

[masterbeef92]

this doesn't sound so good. the prescence was never really ever changed. if he hept it at like 5 and use his hand to make the overdrive, maybe it would sound ok.

[roundman3000]

@ChaserHUN I noticed the master volume is turned way down. I would say it's mostly preamp distortion we're hearing. I'm sure it sounds way better with the master volume turned up like most tube amps.

Tone King..You Rock.This v3 is ok,but I am picking up an X100B today.It smokes the v3 in my opinion.I'll post some sounds when I get it.

[ChaserHUN]

This sounds so fizzy and baaad :S It's sound like my 10W practice amp, ever worse :S

[A7X2theDeath]

I have this amp and i love it!

@evilpinkfreud Agree 110% ... Although the Carvin isn't huge money, I've never understood why somebody would chunk down serious coin for more expensive amps and then run the damn thing thru a $100 overdrive/distortion pedal. I've seen plenty of bozo's spend 2k+ for an amp and then in turn run it thru a gain pedal. Stupid
