I bought this amp, nine in 1983 to 5500 F.

It is a hybrid combo upside down, a technology so trs particulire: power amp 130w lamp (4 6L6) and two channels prampli transistor. 2 Hp 12 Scorpion. Rverb and phasing (the phasing rad fell after three, never rpar as unnecessary.
Channel ddi clear sound with a monstrous notemment Settings, canal ddi qua complte with overdrive distortion, bright and pull prsence.

UTILIZATION

The number of rglages is relatively large, thus the use is not intuitive at first.

These rglages interference, and offer them a range of its rev tense. Do not make statements hsiter prcis because one is never sure to find one given her.
In résumé is like other stuff: some rglages = easy but sounds somewhat Varis. Many rglage = less easy, but wider sound field. This is the case peavey.

SOUNDS

I play with a Telecaster deluxe custom of 78, an SG spcial a japs ​​(Aria knight warrior).
Given the weight of the machine (about 30kg) I thought to myself Sparer a more lightweight combo in 5000-6000 Max bullets. I never found the equivalent in the clear. Whether in dynamic heat and musicality I find the clean sound beautiful. It can connect over any kind of pedals and with pramplis whenever I think about the results remarkable. The four semi paramtrique is the silver bullet that Scult sound like a work of art. I have a TS9 in 1984 and on that channel with tl or sg is sublissime. The rverb what is now called vintage, and the sound-ing I work with are hungry trs. It is deep, round and warm, with both a whole sometimes lacks precision. Unlike any current rverbs numrique embedded in combos.

The channel is typically saturated fender: gritty and slimy with harmonics that can still retain a certain precision of sound. This channel is thundering, it is true that it is absolutely not for saturated fat. L is the boiled.
In crunch and overdrive, it's very beautiful and especially trs musical (especially with the Tl but less versatile than the channel clear sound. The subtle game are intgralement respects, the sound obit on his finger and the eye of the blow mdiator guitarist.

I came to find my TS9 branch canal clear sound more bland and less musical. Since the TS9 is on the shelf.

OVERALL OPINION

. It's been 21 years since I use it. I jou on many amps acquired or STRP (marshall, fender, mesa ...). The clear sound of peavey is truly remarkable and offers all uses. The overdrive, less versatile trs typical and very musical. He knocked my TS9.
However, the electronic is not the most silent.
One thing note: fiabilt the can (made from the phasing). Not a knob that spits APRS 21 years is incredible vritablement (the thing has yet been fully mileux: damp, condensation, cold hot, smokes, with hundreds of dplacements, shock etc.) . Quite the opposite of Marshall (but its only a shame for the quality, reliability.
A RVision rcente in 21 years of tech advice: RAS.

The report qualitprix of the silent era without proper (5500 balls beginners 1980 c'tait not given. Today and used for cheap, I think it is remarkable.
With exprience, I do it again this election, in the absence of alternatives known to me in this price range.
