Source for old Peavey manuals, wiring diagrams, etc

Post by neillarson » Mon Apr 11, 2011 8:32 am

I have a early 80s model Peavey Classic 50 212 and would like to find any documentation on it. Anyone know of sources for this type of info?

Neill, I found this at the Peavey web page under support/manuals/ archived manuals

http://www.peavey.com/assets/literature ... 301444.pdf

I hope that was the one you needed. Let me know if not and we can try again.

Thank you for looking. Mine is actually older than that. My power switch is in the back, foot pedal has a multi pin Din plug at the other end of the back. Front includes 4 inputs on the left, them all the controls is round knobs with the power lamp on the right. I will get some pics of it up today.

I looked at the site you referenced, hard to believe that I missed that.

This is my amp, but no manual on it.

Have you tried retrevo.com I believe it is, they sometimes list old owners manuals.

Nope, too new. My post above shows a pic of what mine looks like. SOmeone posted a basic manual with some specs on another post, so I will keep it. Still no help on the pedal though.

Still working on it, I have found a lot of sites but they list the newer models, there are some references in forums to the older style but not documentation. I will post it here if I find something, I am on an easter egg hunt mission now. hahaha.

I hope it helps.
