Bringing together a completely hand-built ethos from the wiring to the cabinet, a 12" Celestion Gold alnico speaker, and a voicing switch that easily slides between British roar and clear American jangle, the Carstens Amplification Black Flag Combo is a boutique bruiser that packs an unbelievable amount of punch in a 12" amp. Able to transform 22 watts into a three-dimensional sonic experience that more than holds its own in venues, the Black Flag has already earned the acclaim of players from Mike McCready to Brad Paisley for a simple reason: it's a compact beast that offers premium tone with a surprising amount of punch.
