If your amp doesn’t have reverb, the Carl Martin Headroom Mini might be the fix- but does it justify the price?
Get it here - thmn.to/thoprod/614745?offid=1&affid=288
In this video, I test the Headroom Mini in a real-world setup: clean tones, stacked with drives, even high gain and stereo. We’ll go through all the features, demo both reverb banks, explore remote switching, and I’ll give you my honest verdict on whether it’s worth your money… or just another “nice idea” in a crowded market.
