Carvin Legacy VL100 100W Tube Head — Steve Vai Signature

Carvin's flagship collaboration with Steve Vai, the Legacy VL100 delivers 100 watts of tube power with a voice that's both articulate and massive. Built in the USA, this head is known for its lush clean channel, harmonically rich drive, and Vai‑approved sustain.

  • Design: 100W all‑tube head, Steve Vai signature model
  • Channels: Clean and Lead, with footswitchable options
  • Features: Presence, Resonance, and Reverb controls; effects loop; bias test points
  • Condition: Player‑grade, tested solid; cosmetic wear consistent with age
  • Tone Profile: Sparkling cleans, thick midrange drive, and soaring sustain — a versatile head that holds its own against Mesa and Marshall

Legacy Note:

The Legacy VL100 was designed with Vai's input, but it's not just for shredders — it's a powerhouse head that adapts to any style. Honest, loud, and full of character, it's a cornerstone amp for players who want stage‑ready firepower without boutique markup. A great pedal platform... I'd run the Lead Channel at about 40% gain then add my favorite OD pedal for that jump off of the cliff..!
