Capable of both delectable clean tones and harmonically rich tube overdrive at real-world volumes, amps like the late-’50s tweed Harvard, Deluxe, and ’60s blackface Princeton Reverb provided a springboard for the Carr Skylark. The new Skylark Special continues that tradition, adding increased versatility and enhanced sonic depths to the time-tested design of the original model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe Skylark generates 12 watts from a pair of 6V6GT power tubes, but it does far more with that platform than any of the classics that inspired it. By expanding the tone stage with a super-handy Mid control and adding an extended-range Presence control, Carr has given the Skylark far more sonic flexibility. A Hi\/Low gain switch and onboard attenuator enhance the drive and output capabilities exponentially, allowing a smooth transition from tweed-to-blackface, and further suiting the amp to a myriad of playing situations. Additionally, Carr has added its popular H73 setting—the Hiwatt-inspired tone section introduced on the Bel-Ray model—to the new Special design, introducing the option of a bold and punchy British voice, selectable on a two-way mini-toggle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe Skylark’s acclaimed, tube-driven spring reverb has been enhanced for optimum lush, multi-dimensional atmospherics. The redesigned, retro-styled cabinet is now made from lightweight, premium-grade, Baltic-birch plywood, reducing the total weight while better focusing tonal projection. An EZ81 tube rectifier takes the place of the previous fast-recovery diodes for a more responsive, tactile playing feel. Added together, these features make for an extremely dynamic and expressive combo that’s beautifully suited to the studio and club stage alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eIt’s all put together with the top-shelf parts and construction that Carr is famous for, using military and aerospace-grade power supply components, an added nine more Jupiter signal capacitors (more expensive, but they sound \u003cem\u003egreat\u003c\/em\u003e), and resistors inspired by the golden age of tube amps, all rendered with true point-to-point wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--accent\"\u003eThe Skylark — primed to fly when your tone needs wings.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--accent\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul data-rte-list=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003ePower: 12 Watts full Attenuated 1.2 watts to a whisper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eConstruction: Hand wired point-to-point in the USA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eComponents: Custom USA made transformers, Solen Fast Cap Film Power Supply, US-made Jupiter and Mallory signal capacitors, carbon comp resistors and more\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003ePower: 12 watts, attenuated from 1.2 watts to 0\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eChannels: One\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eTubes: two 12AX7, two 12AT7, two 6V6GT, one EZ81\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eControls: Volume, Hi\/Low gain, Treble, Mid, Bass, Reverb, Presence, Attenuator, Attenuator toggle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eSwitches: Two position Hi\/Low gain switch, H-73 tone section switch, Attenuator in\/out, on\/off\/standby\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eFeatures: All-tube spring reverb, built-in attenuator, 8-Ohm speaker out\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eCabinet: Hand-crafted from premium plywood and uniquely styled\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eSpeaker: Celestion A-Type 12\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eWeight \u0026amp; Dimensions: 1x12\" combo 20.5\" (W) x 15.75\" (H) x 9\" (D), 33 lbs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Carr","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47054616035571,"sku":"10CAR037","price":3535.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2433\/files\/1-Img24606.jpg?v=1749251949","url":"https:\/\/www.truetonemusic.mom\/products\/carr-skylark-special-two-tone-sonic-blue-and-gray-guitar-amp-combo","provider":"Truetone Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
