Peavey Next Generation ValveKing Series Shipping Now

Peavey Electronics, a world leader in guitar amplification, is proud to announce shipping availability of the next generation ValveKing series tube guitar amplifiers.

Peaveys original ValveKing line was developed to contain all of the attention-to-detail circuitry and tonal qualities of boutique amplifiers, but with a price point real working guitarists could afford. Now, with the next generation line, Peavey has taken this idea even further and delivered one of its most tonally sophisticated lines of amps yet, tailored for the versatile needs of today's modern guitarist.

When we designed the first ValveKing amps we knew we wanted that elite feel and high-end build quality of a boutique amp in an amp that most working guitarists could afford, notes Peavey CEO Hartley Peavey. We also wanted it to be that rugged, go-to amp that guitarists cant wait to plug into. Now the new generation of ValveKing adds features and versatility that raise that bar even more. The new ValveKings deliver it all!

In addition to all the boutique qualities and hot-rodded tones that guitarists have come to expect from the ValveKing series, the next generation line incorporates brand new cutting-edge features for recording and performing musicians.

For the recording musician, the ValveKing features a USB direct recording output, which pipes the mic'ed amp vibe directly into a computer. On the rear panel, the built-in Peavey MSDI (Microphone Simulated Direct Interface) XLR direct interface eliminates the need for miking by allowing users to send the amp's signal directly to a recording device or mixing console. To fully take advantage of these recording capabilities, the new ValveKings feature a convenient speaker defeat switch that enables the amp to be used as a direct recording device with no speaker output.

With versatile tone for rock, jazz, or metal, the new generation ValveKings have the capabilities to create almost any sound imaginable. ValveKings proprietary Vari-Class knob enables guitarists to adjust the ValveKing's class characteristics, allowing for complete power amp type versatility. True to its name, ValveKing even includes the new TSI tube-monitoring indicator that keeps you apprised of the health of your tubes!

ValveKing offers other high-end features like variable power control, so you can tailor your output to your performance situation without compromising tone. With triple 12AX7s, two independent foot-switchable channels each with their own EQ, and the Vari-Class variable Class A/AB simulation control, the next generation ValveKing delivers massive amounts of completely customizable all-tube power.

The next generation ValveKing line includes the new extremely portable ValveKing Micro Head, plus the beefed-up ValveKing Head, ValveKing Combo 20, and ValveKing Combo 50, each delivering its own array of pro features and boutique tones.
