Peavey

[somber lake]

Because their old stuff is the best, their new stuff is the worst

I’m going to fit the stereo chorus 400 in here somehow and get rid of the rage

[somber lake]

Almost too wide

[brittle kraken]

I want a 6505 pretty bad haha

Their 5150s, 3120s, Classic 100s, Ultra Plus 120s, Chadwicks, and 6534+s are sick too

[somber lake]

I’m pretty much done with peavys lol

They got rid of their old part warehouses

And a lot of their modern bandits that try to be like the old bandits are garbage

The second I have my chance im getting something else

And for the bass

a 4x10 ampeg cab maybe?

And one of their smaller rack heads

Also the reverb is broken on that peavy

I also just want new amps, tired of the old stuff lmao

[ivory maple]

This was on rig pics but I'm also sharing here, my Standard Mark III Series

It's similar to the Centurion except it doesn't have the compressor.

[brittle kraken]

Someone has a Peavey XR-600B plus a Traynor 4x10 cab for $75

Both are functioning

[brittle kraken]

Can you mix both channels with that??????

[ivory maple]

Yeah that's the automix

Don't know how it does it think it's just a 50/50 blend

But it sounds amazing with the Automix

[brittle kraken]

That's sick as fuck, I can do that with my Sunn 🙂

[ivory maple]

It actually sounds a bit like a Sunn too

It's got some Beta Lead sounds and goes great with the Super Fuzz

You really got to crank the gain though it is a pretty low gain amplifier by modern standards

[brittle kraken]

The Beta is a pretty high gain amp

[ivory maple]

I've heard that

With the sheer variation you can get with the Automix using both EQs it can definitely get in the ballpark in terms of tone

[brittle kraken]

Yeah, it sounds like a killer amp, might look into the Standard Mark IIIs

I love how my Beta has the ability to combine both channels

[ivory maple]

My original intention was to find a Centurion Mark III but this one was of sound price for being practically mint condition

So I got it

And I'm very pleased with it's sounds

[brittle kraken]

Sick!!!!!

[ivory maple]

Really though for something from 78 it doesn't look that long from the factory

[brittle kraken]

@ivory maple

[ivory maple]

Nice.

Unfortunately GC would be a tad bit too far for me lol

There actually is one up on Ebay by me but it's spares and repairs sadly

[brittle kraken]

This one appears to be functioning

[ivory maple]

noice

[brittle kraken]

I found a Peavey Standard Mark iii for $100 near me

[ivory maple]

Even better price I got for mine, I say go for it

[brittle kraken]

Would the standard work for bass too?????

[ivory maple]

Yeah pretty sure it does

[brittle kraken]

Perfect!!!!! May be my next amp haha, dude is less than an hour away from me, all I need is a decent bass cab

[ivory maple]

Sunn 2x15s are nice but pretty hard to find

[brittle kraken]

Someone also has a 6505+ combo for $300 but unfortunately they're in Kentucky

[brittle kraken]

I love Sunn's stuff but unfortunately it can be very expensive

[ivory maple]

Very

I see Model T prices and the only way I could excuse them is that Sunn O))) must have bought them all

[brittle kraken]

Yeah, they pretty much did

I was lucky to snag my Beta for $600

I might go for an Acme low cab or something like that, on the cheaper side but those things are build for downtuning

[ivory maple]

Those look pretty nice

If I could chose any guitar cabs though it'd probably be Vader

Though they're real hard to find they're amazing

Hard to find outside the United States atleast

[brittle kraken]

I'm planning on using the Standard for bass since my guitar amp is already good

[ivory maple]

I reckon it could get some sweet Fuzz Bass tones

[brittle kraken]

Hopefully the plan since my main bass tone with what I've been recording has been very, VERY fuzzed out

[ivory maple]

So far my best results have been from stacking the amp gain with pedal gain

It takes pedals amazingly

[brittle kraken]

I was planning on using my line 6 POD 2.0 as a dirt pedal, basically using the fuzz box setting

[ivory maple]

Yeah combine that with the amps distortion and it'll be great

The only fuzz I have with me is the Behringer Super Fuzz which is a clone of the Boss Hyper Fuzz

I'm thinking of getting some sort of Fuzz Face next, probably a modded one with more gain

[brittle kraken]

I have a super fuzz as well!!!! 🙂

[ivory maple]

They're great really especially for how cheap they come

[brittle kraken]

I also need a cab that can withstand absurdly low bass tunings without busting the speakers

[ivory maple]

Especially that the original pedal is in the 300s in terms of price now

[ivory maple]

That Acme one you mentioned earlier is probably the best shout then

[brittle kraken]

There's one for $225... but the shipping is also $225

If the shipping was cheaper it would be a no brainer

[ivory maple]

Got to (not) love the current shipping prices

[brittle kraken]

They're extremely hifi cabs but apparently have shit efficiency so people power them like x2 what they'd normally be rated for

They're supposedly like obscure boutique cabs but can be found rather cheap used

[ivory maple]

Don't think I've came by any around me so it may be a local deal

I already have my Marshall 4x12 so it's not like I need anymore though

[somber lake]

My stereo chorus has that too

[ivory maple]

It's a very good feature

[somber lake]

I haven’t messed with it much yet

[ivory maple]

I'd recommend you do

[earnest sentinel]

Great Bass Cab's lol

Never really used a guitar amp peavey

Obviously not since I cant spell it right

[brittle kraken]

I just met Hartley Peavey

He lives a few towns from me and I ran into him

I'm fucking dumbfounded

My jaw dropped the moment I figured out who he was

[brittle kraken]

Also Hartley's favorite Peavey amp he ever made is the Bandit 65

Apparently

They had one in store but I didn't buy it

[ivory maple]

Holy

[brittle kraken]

I'm still shocked haha

[brittle kraken]

I just tried a Peavey 5150 II and absolutely adored the fucking thing

[steel escarp]

Thats cool.

[brittle kraken]

This beast of a fucking amp, unfortunately it was $1,299 that I don't have for an amp

[steel escarp]

Yeah good sounds. Did not know they were going for that much.

[deft mauve]

Peavey

[brittle kraken]

$200 6505 from 2006

Needs repairs but still

Hot DAMN

[brittle kraken]

THE DUDE DELETED THE $200 6505 LISTING NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[steel escarp]

Bummer.

[somber lake]

That’s funny

It’s also my dads favorite amp

He used to own 4 and played them in stereo on each side of the stage

No idea how

Now did you ask him what the fuck happened to the old parts warehouses? We can’t repair the good old amps like the bandit 65

And my stereo chorus 400

[brittle kraken]

No, I actually did not

Unfortunately

[somber lake]

damn

[somber lake]

Trying out a new peavy amp (the one on top) I absolutely love it compared to the other one

Well it’s really old new to me

[steel escarp]

I like Peavey.

[steel escarp]

Peavey Horizon.

[brittle kraken]

These are tempting...

[peak ravine]

i have bandit ailver stripe w for 150$

[brittle kraken]

Paid $50 for this today. 1980 Peavey Decade!

[brittle kraken]

@brave shard not sure if you're into Peavey but I know you liked the little Marshall amp I showed before 🙂

[brave shard]

Skynyrd used them, right?

[brittle kraken]

I think they used the Maces? I'd have to check

Queens Of The Stone Age use the Decades

I think Skynyrd also used the Deuces

Basically a Mace with 2 (I think) less power tubes

[brittle kraken]

Picked up this 1986 USA made Peavey Basic 50 for free. Can't wait to go home and plug it in!

[ivory maple]

Ain't that the one that gets sold for way too much on Reverb

[brittle kraken]

Yep! Thanks to Josh Homme of Queens Of The Stone Age

In 2021 someone bought one for $1,500 on Reverb. Absolutely fucking insane.

[ivory maple]

Wow

[brittle kraken]

@ivory maple Peavey stack

[ivory maple]

Nice

[brittle kraken]

Thank you! The Rage 158 is definitely the one with the most gain, the Basic 50 is the cleanest, and the Decade is a happy medium (it's my favorite), can get close to gated fuzz tones!

The Decade is way more suited for rock than metal but I love it.

[ivory maple]

Nice

I said Nice twice

I'm quite a fan of the Rage

I've seen preamp pedals of it that can get a pretty sweet distortion slash fuzz sound going

[brittle kraken]

Same... I like the Decade a bit more, though 😅

[brave shard]

I think a rage 158 was my first amp.

[brittle kraken]

I'm a fan of mine, definitely usable with tweaks, you can use the headphone out to slave it into a bigger amp as well. Sounds better that way

[brittle kraken]

@brave shard @ivory maple I was wrong about the Peavey Decade. It can fucking doom without pedals. Listen to this shit. Had to clean up the pots and stuff... it genuinely kills in the gain department.

[ivory maple]

Pretty anything Peavey I've ever had the pleasure of playing can Doom, sometimes I think just the logo means it can Doom

When it comes to the practice amp compartment Peavey always kills it

[brittle kraken]

I genuinely thought the Decade was more of a rock amp. Cleaned it up. Way more gain on tap 😅

What can't doom without pedals is my Basic 50... very... VERY clean amp

Makes it a great pedal platform!

[ivory maple]

Interesting

When it comes to the combos I like the look of the Stereo Chorus

[brittle kraken]

I love how the Decade looks. The design is beautiful

I love how the speaker grill is angled up

At a slant

[ivory maple]

Peavey probably has the best aesthetic when it comes to amps for me

[brittle kraken]

@ivory maple amp settings reveal for that video

[ivory maple]

Interesting that the Highs are cranked

Though I can see why

It seems that whenever I do the same on my Peavey Standard it increases the gain by a hair

[brittle kraken]

Increases gain but actually doesn't get too shrill, surprisingly! The amp is also super midrangey so even if you have the mids low, they're still very present!

[ivory maple]

Peaveys definitely have all the mids

Practically Marshall level mids just more lows than highs

[brittle kraken]

I LOVE amps with a fuckton of mids

That Decade also has no business sounding as good on bass as it does

@ivory maple by comparison, my Marshall Lead 12 has WAY less lows and WAY more highs than my Peavey Decade

Interesting being that the Lead 12 is a 1x10 and the Decade is a 1x8

[ivory maple]

Yeah

[brittle kraken]

@ivory maple you're going to love this. Decade trick. Max the gain, use the saturation input, roll off your guitar volume. Boom, near-gated fuzz tones for dayzzzz

[ivory maple]

It's got a glitchy character to it that gives it a cool sound

Could be used for some psychadelic stuff

[brittle kraken]

It's so fucking cool. Like a bit crusher mixed with fuzz. Cuts off the sustain unless you pick super hard and use a lot of vibrato haha

[brittle kraken]

Just secured this 1983 Peavey Decade for $25! Can't wait to test it out 🙂

[brittle kraken]

@ivory maple

[brave shard]

Whoa! That's insane.

[ivory maple]

Nice

[brittle kraken]

Thank you! 🙂

@brave shard @ivory maple

[brittle kraken]

May be picking up Peavey #5 tomorrow, a 1982 TNT 100

[steel escarp]

There is a nice little Peavey near me, I am thinking about. I dont need it. Has 2 JBLs in it.

[brittle kraken]

Those are great amps!

[steel escarp]

I think it is basically the precursor to the classic. I dont need it, but could also have dual use if I make a bomb shelter. I can line the exterior of it with Peavey amps.

[brittle kraken]

New amp day, 1982 Peavey TNT 100, ran me $20

[ivory maple]

NAD Mint OG Rage

It even has the manuals and ancient warranty

[ivory maple]

I threw in a DOD American Metal (HM-2 Clone) and it's given me instant Nails tone

[brittle kraken]

Fuck yeah! James Brown told me on his first day at Peavey in 1986, he started comparing about 4-5 different speakers for the Peavey Companion that he eventually redesigned into the Rage

He was there from 1986-2004, the VTM was the first amp he designed with Peavey

I may be picking up a Bandit 65 for $60

[ivory maple]

Nice

[brittle kraken]

The supersat circuit is also a James Brown design, it's on the Bandit 75 as well 🙂

[ivory maple]

A very interesting design, sounds great too

[brittle kraken]

I'm sure of it, everything I've tried that James had a hand in has been gold

[brittle kraken]

Also, one of the Peavey amps I want the most is the Combo 300. Those things are insane.

[ivory maple]

The craziest one I've seen is probably between the VTM and Revolution

[brittle kraken]

Those two rule too

[ivory maple]

I mean just look at this

They seem to be very rare but they kill apparently

[brittle kraken]

The Combo 300 is incredible. 8 different EQ knobs, all centered at a different frequency, an Internal crossover with biamp capabilities, and an external speaker jack, also a Black Widow 15"

Probably weighs as much as a fucking boat anchor

[ivory maple]

Definitely sounds like it would

[brittle kraken]

I've heard of the Revilution, the VTM was James Brown's first design with Peavey

[ivory maple]

If there was a tube amp I'd have it'd definitely be the VTM

Pretty much their take on a modded JCM 800

[brittle kraken]

It's 210 watts at 4 ohms with just the stock BW speaker... the external jack allows you to connect a 4 ohm cab (or cab set) to bring the impedance down to 2 ohms. Which gives you the full 300 watts

[brittle kraken]

Yep, killer amps!

I'd love to see what the hype on the Butchers is about

I've heard those are JCM800-y too

[ivory maple]

Yeah

[brittle kraken]

Same with the Windsors

[ivory maple]

I think the main hype around those is that they actually got a lawsuit from Marshall for them

[brittle kraken]

Peavey did a lot of Marshall-y stuff haha

[brittle kraken]

Didn't know that. No wonder they're so pricey

Peavey made some VERY midrange heavy amps during a time when scooped mids was the norm. Their designs have my respect

[ivory maple]

Peavey mids are awesome

[brittle kraken]

I've heard the Black Widow bass speakers fart out in low tunings but have a fuckton of mids as well, I feel like bi or triamping would be great for that. Highs into something small, midrange into a Black Widow, and lows into something bigger

[brittle kraken]

I've said it before and I'll say it again. A 5150 boosted with a tube screamer into a cab with V30s is next to impossible to scoop with amp settings alone

[ivory maple]

The stock speaker in my Rage seems to be a no name one but it works well enough, it actually sounds a lot better than I thought it would.

[brittle kraken]

I'm not the biggest fan of V30s due to the shrillness in the top end but I love their midrange response

[brittle kraken]

Probably made by Rola or Eminence

I have a Decade from 1980 with what appears to be an Eminence made speaker, and another Decade from 83 with a Rola speaker

[ivory maple]

I think the V30 top end only started happening by the time they were outsourced, I have English V30s in my VH-140C and even with the Treble maxed I don't hear any shrillness

[brittle kraken]

That's good to know. I know there's many... MANY different versions of V30s... the ones I've tried were probably imports since they were shrill city

I don't think I've tried English V30s

I have Hot 100s in my Sunn Beta Lead 2x12 combo and I love them. Tons of midrange without any shrillness. Also decent low end response

I do want to try Eminence Swamp Thangs and Weber Black Shucks, though

I've heard the Webers aren't very sensitive... but Weber doesn't release sensitivity info about them

Swamp Thangs I believe have a 102 or 103 db rating 1w/1m

[brittle kraken]

Also, you have a VH-140C combo? Are those amps as scooped as I've been led to believe? 😅

[ivory maple]

I'd assume they're similar

They can definitely get super scooped

The mid control is labelled as "Ultra Mid" for quite a good reason, you can go from none to all the mids

[brittle kraken]

Yeah, I know of them from 90s death metal bands, Dying Fetus, among others

[brittle kraken]

Glad they're not inherently scooped

I've heard the Crate GX-130C is basically the same design as the VH-140C, which doesn't surprise me since Crate and Ampeg were using the same factories at the time

[ivory maple]

Yeah the early Dying Fetus tone takes pretty much completely axing all the mids, getting rid of quite a fair amount of the bass and then scooping the mids with an eq and adding a bit of bass back in.

I find that gets quite close

[brittle kraken]

Yeah... I'm not a huge fan of scooped guitar tones... I find in a mix it just turns into incoherent mush. You lose your presence

[ivory maple]

Depends on the mood I'm in really

My Crate GX900H had a sick Slam scooped tone before it broke on me

[brittle kraken]

I usually go for some pretty midrange heavy stuff minus a select few bass tones, I used to scoop guitar mids for black metal

[brittle kraken]

Someone has a G600XL here for pretty cheap

[ivory maple]

Usually I have mine slightly boosted

[ivory maple]

Can't say I'd know about any of the Crates except the 900 and GX-130C

[brittle kraken]

I feel Crates and Metal Zones both got a bad reputation because everyone in the 90s had them and thought mids at 0 was the key to being heavy... instead... you get bees 😅

[brittle kraken]

I have a Powerblock that I adore, and a broken KX-100 I got for free that I'm deciding whether I should keep and fix up or give away

[ivory maple]

Still haven't gotten the GX900H fixed, probably should try it myself for a project

[brittle kraken]

The Powerblock really doesn't have any sort of distortion. The gain even maxed is more of a light overdrive. It's an incredible pedal platform, though! Also has great use as a stereo power amp for an external preamp 🙂

[ivory maple]

I think that was what they were marketed as, can't recall

[brittle kraken]

Crate was supposed to make a Bass Powerblock but it fell through

[brittle kraken]

They're fucking loud. 150 watts at 8 ohms mono or 75 watts at 4 ohms a side in stereo

If I had another cab stack I could probably power two full stacks with it

[ivory maple]

Wow

[brittle kraken]

It sounds great on bass

Honestly it's practically a FRFR system marketed as a guitar amp. It's transparent and doesn't really color your sound at all

It's my highest wattage amp

I'm also a huge fan of Crate's Blue Voodoo 300s but they're fucking rare... and expensive to maintain

16 tubes total...each retube is about $600

[brittle kraken]

I'm going to try it as a power amp when I'm home

I've just been going straight in, also using it to record direct since the line out has a cab sim built in

It's a great tool

[ivory maple]

May aswell I reckon that was one of the main things they were build for

built*

[brittle kraken]

Yeah, fair. I may try my DOD Death Metal into it as a preamp

[ivory maple]

Sounds like it'd be cool

[brittle kraken]

The Death Metal is super over the top, it makes a great preamp

I've tried it both in front of my Sunns, and as a preamp

Also into the Powerblock up front

[ivory maple]

Gain always maxed

[brittle kraken]

Yeah, the volume control really does nothing to the gain lmao. The Death Metal has an absurd amount of low end for such a high gain pedal so it's great on bass!

[brittle kraken]

Someone has this beast for $50. Might try snagging it if I have time

[steel escarp]

@ivory maple I have never heard of that amp. Is it yours?

Oh it looks like it is not. Looks cool.

[ivory maple]

Nah not mine

[brittle kraken]

I'd love one of those Audition Chorus amps, only issue is they're always so far from me 😭

[brittle kraken]

I missed out on this. Also a $60 Bandit 65, and someone giving away a 5150 cab with V30s

[dense pier]

For 50 clams I'll jump in that line

[brittle kraken]

I missed it. Seller ghosted me and sold it to someone else 😅

[brittle kraken]

Snagged a ton more Peaveys and also found out that my Decade was modded with a speaker out jack

Went to pick up the $60 Musician head. It won't turn on now, they're going to have their tech fix it (or Hartley himself if he's up to it) but they're holding it for me and apparently they're hooking me up with some other goodies, super nice dudes

[weak dagger]

80s peavey stuff is awesome, $89 for a fully plywood cab using G12K85s. I kind of want to replace the logo though, since it didn’t come with it

[brittle kraken]

I picked up a Peavey Mark III Musician 400GH head for $25. It apparently doesn't turn on but I haven't tested it with a cab so it could just be that the LED doesn't work. Fingers crossed

[brittle kraken]

That Peavey I paid $25 for thinking it was broken? It works. Oh my god I made out like a Bandit

[brittle kraken]

Spent some time actually playing the head instead of just plugging it in for two seconds. Two issues with the head. First the good. It passes sound and the effects all work. The bad news. It sounds weirdly distorted in the high end, even with the gain low. And Channel B is super quiet compared to Channel A.

[weak dagger]

At least it was only $25. Could probably get a tech to look at it, but that’d be more than the amp itself

[brittle kraken]

My tech charges a $60 fee to open it up and look at it. Not bad by any means

[weak dagger]

Yeah, really not bad. My tech is awesome, no bench fees because he does it as a hobby since he’s a retired electrician

[dense pier]

Sounds like a come up. Best 25 dollars spent yeah? I bet it can get loud and I love those kinds of EQ ing. Must sound very nice with your 2x15 's

[brittle kraken]

It sounds great but it does have a couple issues. I'm replacing the plug tonight since someone removed the ground pin. Channel B is ultra quiet compared to A and both channels have this weird distortion in the high end even with the gain low. However, the effects all work and sound great

The phaser is some of the best I've used

[brave shard]

Isn’t this already the second time you found a plug like that? Why do people do it???

[brittle kraken]

Yep. Often times shitty electric causes buzzing and hum so people think that ripping out the ground solves this 😅. It'll work for a ground loop... but it also essentially turns the plug into a 2 prong and believe me... you do NOT want to become the ground

[brave shard]

You can’t hear buzz or hum if you’re dead, I guess

[brittle kraken]

Very true 😅

[fleet fractal]

i’m looking at picking up an 85 peavey t-15

[dense pier]

I'm wondering if anyone herein has used or uses a Peavey KB 300. I see some one selling saying it's always been in a road case and for 250 clams, good deal or.. looks like it has all the knobs

[brittle kraken]

That's a keyboard/full range amp

[dense pier]

Yes, we bought a key board synth for our daughter Xmas gift

[brittle kraken]

It'll work for that! 🙂

[dense pier]

Got this came in a road case for our daughters yamaha synth

Is a 15" with horns 3 channel. Loud!

[brittle kraken]

That's a hell of a setup! 🙂

[rich cypress]

Lefty 💪

I once had a peavey

Was an express 112

65 w good amp

Id like to have it right now

Perfect condition but the clean channel volume was scratchy

Paid 100 cad

[steel escarp]

Yeah a lefty here.
That would have been a good one.
My mid 90s Peavey Bandit had scratchy pots, I pulled it out to get to the pots and hit them all with contact cleaner. Fixed the issue.

Happy New Year as well.

[rich cypress]

Happy new year

[steel escarp]

did you buy it?

[gentle crater]

i lowkey wanna marry my 5150

hi-gain 5150 + chorus = my tone 😍 😍 😍

[brittle kraken]

Sounds like a killer rig! 🙂

[brittle kraken]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=b7c6t7jiS80

Big news!

[steel escarp]

I kind of want the VTM pedal they are releasing.

[brittle kraken]

Same!

[steel escarp]

Such a cool amp. I was listening to Tonetalk, and the engineer said they had a Jose modded Marshall that they based it of, then added all of their mods. Peavey is underated because all of us have brand bias. Slap a F, M, E on it, it perceived sound goes up. I am guilty too.

[neon seal]

Love this thing 🥰 my back not so much tho

[brittle kraken]

Hell of an amp!

[neon seal]

Yeah I like it a lot, not sure about the sheffield speakers that came with it tho. Bought it for €275 which I think is a steal, especially since someone put a set of exh power tubes and jj preamp tubes in to replace the standard chinese ones lol

[brittle kraken]

Yeah, the Sheffields were super inconsistent since the cones were done by hand. Lots of variation. Some sound great, others? Not so much

[neon seal]

I'm replacing one with an eminence governor from my hotrod deluxe which is on the bench, and in time I'll replace the other when the eminence Karnivore is available in retail.

Maybe I'll try one of the sheffields in the hotrod but I'll likely put the oem speaker back in, first some repairs tho. The famous scorched pcb 🥲 🔥

[brittle kraken]

Sick! I want to try Eminence Swamp Thangs in one of my Sunn 2x12 combos

[neon seal]

Heard one of those in a mesa cab driven by a hiwatt dr103 once

Strange combination but sounded pretty cool

[brittle kraken]

Super sensitive speakers. They can get dark and doomy too. Perfect for amps that are too bright by default

[neon seal]

Later heard the same amp through a cab loaded with the fane crescendo's everyone loves. That thing on full volume was.. almost a religious experience lol

[brittle kraken]

I haven't tried Fanes. I have Celestion Hot 100s in my Sunn Beta Lead 2x12 combo

[neon seal]

Instantly fixed my longing for a high power hiwatt, I was yeah 'yeah.. I don't need that at home'

Never tried those

I love the sound of the eminence governor tho which is why I'm pulling it from the fender

Altho it was quite the opposite when breaking it in, didn't sound good at all the first few hours

Oh dear god according to the specs that beta lead is even heavier than the peavey ultra 212 🤣

Must be some big iron driving that thing

[brittle kraken]

You don't want to know the weight of my Sunn Enforcer 2x12 combo. 99 pounds!

The Beta is 70 something. Mine maybe a little less since the giant stock speakers aren't in it anymore

The Enforcer has some serious iron.

[neon seal]

That one doesn't sag when you hit a big chord, it makes the lights dim lol

[brittle kraken]

Solid state rectifier, no sag needed. One channel is based on a Fender Twin Reverb (with a hell of a distortion circuit and the ability to dial in a ton of midrange) and the other is based on a Marshall JCM800 (but way darker and with a ton more gain)

You can combine both channels too

I love doing that. Makes a killer bass amp into the right cab(s) as well

4 6L6GC power tubes, 4 12AX7A preamp tubes 🙂

[neon seal]

Ill have to try one of those some day

[brittle kraken]

Very rare amps. I have a matching 4x12 too. Only downside is they're made of MDF since Sunn had to cut costs at that point as the company that owned them (Hartzell) was going under. Fender bought them out in 1985. The Enforcers were made from late 1983-early 1985. They were Sunn's last tube amp under Hartzell. More than 100 but less than 150 Enforcers were ever made. Sunn completed two shipments of 50 total Enforcer heads, cabs, and combos, a third shipment was partially completed but shut down when Fender bought them out

[neon seal]

Nice!

Anybody actually considering taking a look into those preamp pedals that are coming out?

Or their Super Festival reissue?

[brittle kraken]

I kind of want the VTM preamp pedal. The Super Festival is 1,200 fucking watts, it's insane

[brittle kraken]

Fuck yeah!

[steel escarp]

I am interested in the VTM, but only 1 review out, and a Thomman from the guitar show deal.

[stark stratus]

Dont know why they pulled the pxd series

The coffin cases and guitar designs were great

been looking for the 23s for ages as well

found a guy with a 23 III but no coffin case and a lot of issues to fix

will probably send it in here if he gets back to me

[ivory maple]

Hey I had one of those

Was a pretty fun guitar

Mine was a Tragic II though

[stark stratus]

I've been looking everywhere for them

theyre really hard to find but atleast not a bad price

Also for the peavey cabs I found a 6505 cabinet for £100

but reading online I ain't seeing great reviews

I did find a tomb for 200 euro but its in italy will probably have to use a proxy service
