Carvin V3M - Drive preset
Close · 72/100 confidence. Most values readable. Minor gaps filled by inference from similar circuits.
The V3M is a compact 50-watt version of Carvin's three-channel V3, using four EL84s instead of EL34s. Three relay-switched channels each have their own drive, volume, bass, mid, treble and presence, with bright and soak switches at the input and voicing mode switches. A digital reverb unit with level, a boost, master, an effects loop, a line out and an output power switch complete it, with a 12AX7 long-tail inverter driving the EL84s.
