AG100 with Digital Effects
The AG100D is one of the most important new amplifier updates in the 1998 catalog. It builds on the earlier AG100 multi-purpose acoustic/bass/PA format but adds onboard digital multi-effects, making it more complete as a self-contained performance amp. Carvin presents it as a three-channel unit for acoustic/electric guitar, microphone, instrument, tape, bass, and small PA use. Its 100-watt power amp drives a 12-inch speaker and horn tweeter in a tuned bass-reflex enclosure, giving it more range than a simple acoustic combo. The addition of phantom mic power, a five-band master graphic EQ, effects loop, line out, headphone jack, and stand insert makes it useful for solo performers, small venues, worship settings, rehearsal rooms, and compact sound reinforcement setups.
SX Series with Digital Effects
The SX Series with Digital Effects marks a clear 1998 update to Carvin’s solid-state guitar amp line. The 1997 SX100 and SX200 already had Carvin’s Tube Simulator design, dual-channel clean/overdrive operation, active EQ, effects loop, headphone output, and preamp output. The 1998 SX100D and SX200D retain that core architecture but add a built-in digital effects processor as the headline improvement. The catalog emphasizes 16 premium effects, including reverbs, choruses, flanges, and delays, giving players a more complete stage-ready amp without needing a separate rack processor. The SX100D is the 1x12 version, while the SX200D expands the format with two 12-inch speakers for a larger combo sound.
