Carvin Amp Schematics

[turtle441]

So, I saw on the DIY Stompboxes forum that the Carvin Amp company went bankrupt.  As they're selling off their final inventory, they also posted the schematics to all of their amps online, free of charge.  I know almost nothing about these amps, but figured whoever manages the Hoffman library might want to snag some or all while the site's still up.

Get 'em while you can. Nothing lasts forever.

I've downloaded them all and zipped them up.  I am trying to think of the best way to share them for longer term.

Send Doug a pm. I'm sure he would like to add them to his schematic library.

They don't have some of the really old schematics.  When I needed to fix my Carvin B2000 bass amp Carvin sent me the parts free plus schematic and other data in 1976.

Most of the older schematics are on the carvinmuseum site, but they should be saved somewhere else, too.

I finally had time to upload the carvin stuff


I had to do a bunch of bulk reaming on the files
They are all here now

Thanks!  My part was pretty lame/easy "right click, save as" :)

To all the Carvin connaisseurs:
Is there a Carvin Amp that has really good distortion and clean channels? All I ever played were the Vintage series and the MTS3200. Both had good clean channels, but the distortion was horrible...

legacy did both reasonably well, as did the the x100b.
