This boutique tube combo moves effortlessly from warm cleans to gritty mid-range crunch and searing lead sustain—all packed into a highly portable design that shines in rehearsal spaces, recording studios, and live venues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Vintage Guitar magazine first hailed the original Mercury in 2003 as the “Tone of the Gods,” it cemented Carr’s reputation for sonic innovation. The Mercury V takes that legacy further, combining touch-sensitive response with an enhanced control layout that allows players to explore a wide spectrum of gain structures, EQ shaping, and output levels suitable for nearly any genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePowered by a pair of 6V6GT power tubes for 16 watts of rich output, the Mercury V employs a unique preamp circuit featuring independent High and Low Volume controls, a three-way Boost switch, and a responsive three-band EQ. Whether you’re chasing chiming ’60s cleans, fat ’70s riff tones, ’80s stadium crunch, or ’90s high-gain saturation, this amp delivers. The dual channels can be blended in parallel for classic four-input textures or cascaded in series for massive modern gain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarr’s hallmark built-in attenuator allows seamless scaling from 16 watts down to bedroom-friendly levels as low as 4 watts, while a post-power amp Line Out makes it easy to run direct to a PA system or recording interface. Add in its lush spring reverb, and you’ve got a compact combo with arena-sized sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs with all Carr Amplifiers, the Mercury V is meticulously hand-built in North Carolina using dovetailed solid pine cabinets, point-to-point wiring, and premium-grade components sourced to military and aerospace standards. The result is a roadworthy boutique amplifier that delivers uncompromising tone, vintage character, and modern flexibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e* \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCelestion Creamback M-65 12”speaker \u003c\/p\u003e* \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCustom Carr Transformers \u003c\/p\u003e* \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll NC yellow pine cabinet \u003c\/p\u003e* \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpring\/Tube Reverb \u003c\/p\u003e* \u003cbr\u003e2 x 6V6; 4 x 12AX7 \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Carr","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41699468017767,"sku":"MERCURYV-GREEN","price":3440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/4521\/files\/CarrMercVGreen01.jpg?v=1758745414","url":"https:\/\/detroitguitar.com\/products\/carr-mercury-v-1x12-16-watt-combo-green","provider":"Detroit Guitar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
