Nothing else to say, this amp still can’t be beat for high gain and love the “new” look.

Small Sized Monster Amp

What is your opinion of this product?

This amp is absolutely great, very reliable, easy to get any kind of tones you want, especially if you play real Rock And Roll. The crunch channel (green) is fantastic, you can really get that "light dirty" sound for a Blues tune and you can also get a wonderful distorted sound for your rhythm section just by adjusting the gain control. The distortion channel (red) is insane, needless to say that it was originally designed in conjunction with the great Eddie Van Halen, so you can have a perfect tone with gain and volume boosts for that solo that will make the audience to go crazy. The send and return jacks allow you to add effects to the loop section, such as delay, wahs, phaser, chorus, volume, equalizer, whatever modulation effect you may think of to enhance the sound. I am not an endorser, I am a real user that has simply fallen in love with this amp.

Sounds 5* Features 4*

What is your opinion of this product?

Great Clean Crunch Hi gain and reverb sounds with more then enough volume to play extreme metal with real drums. The volume switch is great, specially to be able to overdrive the power amp section. To improve I would add more gain on the crunch switch, and would add the ability to bypass the speaker mic simulation in order to use other impulse responses in an easier fashion.

Q & A
Discussions
Marc from Quebec

Subject: New look !
Discussion: Hi, I see that there is a new look (2023) with the block logo instead and the square PEAVEY instead of the round logo. Is there anything new to that amp version ? Thank you ! Peavey Response: The amp is the same.
Vann

Subject: Cathode Biased
Discussion: Is this amp cathode biased? Peavey Response: Yes. We use a matched set of EL84s biased to between 21-23mA from the factory. Some more recent units used Russian EL84s due to the tube shortage, however, the normal production tube will be the JJEL84.
