All user reviews for the Peavey Vypyr 15

The features I will not remember them all there are data sheets for it so transo, 15W with effects loop and full of bidouilleries

UTILIZATION

Good use and simple but complicated at the beginning when we found the trick.
Like many below I never open the manual
and you can get a reasonably easily

SOUNDS

It is quite versatile despite his awful personality I play a Start with low-end and high end les paul and as said below the sounds like a lot of redundancy in the preamp amp is really great to start but then it inadequate.

OVERALL OPINION

It's going to do 2 / 3 years since I played it over my filled my start but then the value for money is really excellent for this remake and I made this choice only begun.

Amplification Type: modeling
Power 15 W
Rglages, effects: see data sheet, because a lot of value!
Connections: a jack Bin (empty ...), but it seems a headphone jack but that is not bad it's taken "to input" that allows you to connect your Mp3.

UTILIZATION

The configuration can stepfather complicated at first, however it is not. I have not even opened the manual! In addition, the fawn's rgler paramtres pens is great thanks to the way "edit".
The sound is clear enough for a 15 W, I promise you that he spits! I put the master volume on 2 (you can go up 15) and I dj afraid to piss off the neighbors!

SOUNDS

I play an Ibanez EX RGRG121, but whatever ... Connect to an SG you will not see the diffrence! It may also be his only weakness!
This amp can suit a lot of musical style as given the wide range of effects on offer as well as many amp simulation (Marshall, Laney, Fender ...)

OVERALL OPINION

In a word "AWESOME!" The ratio quality price is unbeatable! If you beginners, especially not n'hsitez is the perfect amp IDAL! Even if you express your can get from trs enjoyable service (eg lamp failure, or to be in sentraner without going all 100W lamps!)

The Peavey Vypyr 15 is the smallest amp in the recent line of Vypyr amps. It is packed chalk FULL of cool features that kids today are ridiculously lucky to have in a $100 amp. It features 11 amp models with 2 channels each, several different effects, a separate delay and reverb section, and the ability to dial in tones from Fender clean to Diezel or Mesa grind all at the twist of a few knobs. It's a solid state 15 watt amp that contains a small 8" speaker. It also has a master volume and 1/8" jacks for aux. in and headphones.

UTILIZATION

Dialing in this amp can take a bit of time if you're new to the world of guitar but it's a pretty intuitive interface that can get learned pretty fast. Peavey lays it out much like a typical amp/effects setup, with your preamp tones (amp sounds) first, then your effects, and then tweaking the power amp tones (EQ controls like bass, mid, treble, etc) and then finally a master volume to control the overall level. It's pretty cool and once it's figured out anyone can have hours upon hours of fun with this little box.

SOUNDS

This amp is great for many different sounds from clean to high gain. While it lacks the general tube feel of the high dollar amps it's emulating, I really can't expect much better tone out of a $100 practice amp. It covers a wide variety of different tones and sounds great at all them. Some of the high gain sounds a bit compressed for my liking but for a beginner I'm sure it is just cool to have so many flavours of distortion tone available, plus all the cool effects built right in. I really like some of the low to mid gain sounds like the AC30 and Badcat with the gain turned right up as it gives a more natural tube like sound than the higher gain Mesa/Diezel/Krank models do.

OVERALL OPINION

All in all I think the Peavey Vypyr 15 is a FANTASTIC bargain for the $100 new that they cost. It's really quite mind boggling to think that such a small and cheap amp can sound this good with a wide variety of sound emulators. It's definitely my go-to recommendation for a small practice amp as there is simple no better bang for your buck than the Peavey Vypyr series.

Tried very long in the store (I can not fly!) With a les paul emg hz.
It is not possible a similar quality at this price!
The delay-reverb is gorgeous, the sounds were clear everything (heat-magnitude-clarity-precision) and the saturation resolved though with too much drive are pretty transparent and understandable.
The HP sends a huge potato (you should be able to make 140 servings of French fries to McDonald's ...) but can not of course prevent the usual tin can effect small combos. The replacement will not be obvious he is 3 ohms, and finally with the amplification transistors as they do not fall below are not to worry. Hp external outlet (which cuts internally) is relevant I think.

General mechanical printing: junk, for the 30w too. By plugging the guitar back panel is half a centimeter, never seen a mounting also feeble. The panel of bat wings does not fit, turn it up a bit short and it vibrates to remove.
Legibility is poor in that the control panel is not tilted up (or any guitarist is over 40 centimeters).
Otherwise it's fairly intuitive to use, as it is not drunk in which case the hundreds of LEDs present double and then good luck eh.

I had the spider 30 version 3, no comparison and I weigh my words. Version 4 (twelve models, effects and reverb and delay separated) on the other hand is competitive, easier to use more readable and much more solid.

The vypyr 15 is incredible level sound, but inspires no confidence as it is junk, I bet not even 50 euros on it.

By far the most impressive amp modeling amplifier out on the market! It uses some sort of hybrid technology that is exclusive to Peavey that uses analog features with the solid state functionality. I am not a big fan of amp modeling but this is the best sounding unit that is out there today. It responds very like a real amp with the interaction between the preamp and the power amp section.

I may come off a little intimidating with all the switches and options that are on the faceplate. But the more you play it the more you figure out the way it interacts.

SOUNDS

I like high gain amps and since most amp modelers have a tone of clean amps but not usable distortion tones, but this amp does have a great amp distortion. If you are a fan of high gains and need an all in one amp with effects and settings than this is the amp for you.

The clean is just as good as a Fender or Roland clean, but the distortion amps is where this thing lives. another cool thing is that this thing has stompbox models as well not just amps. So there are really more options available here than any other amp modeler that i have seen.

OVERALL OPINION

If you need a solid amp modeling amp that is cheap and compact then this is the best amp for you. At new they come in at around $99, which is a smashing good price for the quality of workmanship in this unit. With 24 amp models it has more options than anything is this category.

I would recommend this amp to any person who needs a great practice amp that has everything built into it. With an onboard tuner all you need is a humbucking style guitar and your can practice at home or in the office. For the price you cannot beat this amp! I am going to buy one ASAP!

Transtube, simulation similar Peavey
Entry tool
Between auxiliary MP3
Headphone
15w mas is stronger than my VOX VT15


UTILIZATION

+ Simple VT15 on my bills and settled for the different models of amplifiers,
Clear manual CD
Very easy to work and save these nimble, 12 slots is to play well at home, and if one year branch MP3 player is the top.
I use the headphones all night and is very good.

SOUNDS

I play some every year, from BB King to Rob Zombie, and the least we can say are that it ia a choice!
My guitar its a PRS with a split to pass Confg Humbucker to single coil.
I Utilice the Plexi to Hendrix and Zeppelin stuff, Brit for Queen and U2, the B-tube with Kat screem and Ca tears for ACDC, The XXX I find it very useful to the plans por Zakk Wylde, and for the JSX Stach and VAi, 6505 and EVH ensures Metallica I use the DZL and Recto.
The duplex setting too Pussies and I think that sounds range from Gary Moore Santana.
The effects are very good and better than my VOX annealed, everything can be resolved.
My favorite B-Kat, the slap of Starycats bak ACDC.
The reverse effect, not over the top, if not everything else is good.



OVERALL OPINION

Two months and I play all night.
This is my fourth amp and even if it's on my vox modeling warm clean, to crunch to saturation and distortion is much better.
Value for money, unbeatable!

Transistor amplifier of 15 watts.
Amp modeling.

An instrument input,
1 entry aux/mp3,
1 headphone / recording: the sound of a 4x12 inch emulated.

Amps simulated effects of simulated + 1 + 1 delay reverb.
A tuner.

UTILIZATION

Simple configuration once the logic grip.
Boutonss of the amp settings (bass, mid, treble, presence) can also adjust the effect, delay and reverb.

We get a sound very easy, everything sounds very well.
Like any versatile amp it takes a little time to master the simulated response of amplifiers.

a long press of a button and presto mode tuner.

The buttons are buttons infinite and therefore very well suited to use digital amp.

The entrance is convenient to work with mp3.
The output record is very good to model.

SOUNDS

I play on 6 and 7 string Ibanez, I have a Jackson RR 96 per test.
I heard a telecaster above.

It is very suitable distortion level, in active or passive sound is different, you will not make micracle without microphones to suit your style.

A simulation is t it transparent, crystalline, oily?
In any case, the color of the different amps I like well it sounds. Maybe not as the original but it sounds.

The distos are enormous.
I have a Tonelab, sounds are different between the 2, but workable.
In addition to "classic" Marshall, Mesa, and others,
The Diezel, Krank, 6505, JSX are very good too.

I do not play crunch or slight distortion, I play on the other hand and clear the "classic" Fender sound great too.

I find it very comfortable to play.

For work at home, but 15W is already much good not to repeat with a drummer.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since 2009, I tried Valvestate Marshall, JCM, and ToneLab for modeling.

I like his versatility and quality sound, less like the lack of effects loop, a larger HP for big bass when you shoot.
But this is only 15 watts so not to repeat it.
I also love the headphone / recording.

The quality / price is very good.
I would do this choice.

Amp transistor, conventional jack.

Powerful 15 watts delivered (say have more)

Setting and effects has already registered the amp there's nothing to do.

UTILIZATION

Setting a bit hard at first, but after ca va (a friend since the 6 months and did not know he was a civil tuner in it).
The manual I ais not open.

This gives a good sound with all the guitar which is a problem

SOUNDS

It suits my style of music with the XXX.

His brilliant and well defined.

I play with a dessu az lespaul gold top, epiphone lespaul a studio and a yellow heart Burny MG (signature hide)

I love the effects and the phrasing and tubscreame XXX

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since Christmas 2009 in my bedroom amp learning.

I had a drive (zero), a Fender Frontman 212R (well clear zero distortion)

It sound good, but it is programmed I found sounded good with all guitars.
EX: I plug my AZ value 150 € and my Burny value € 1,500, the sound is exactly the same (a bit more acute for micro Burny but that his stink).
Basically with any guitar plugged dessu it sound the same (as tested with an ibanez)

At the beginning I was thrilled, but he had no personality ... It is well to do it alone.

Type: Transistor
Connections: input jack, Aux (MP3), headphone output.
15w power (but sounds VERY strong)
Effects: Amp modeling.
Too bad this is not a multichannel possibility to put a footswitch (only from 30w) because he does great! Otherwise, the possibility Save 12 types of adjustments, it was not all bad, but it always concerns the need to press the buttons on the amp to change the "channel".
The 15w is largely sufficient for the apartment!
It is a very lug. The

UTILIZATION

configurarion: cxomplique both simple: Once we understood how it rule, has become very easy, you just spend some time on it.
Be too little overdrive on offer: for a beginner, this may be a bit confusing: in the beginning, I programmed a clear sound, a crunch sound and well saturated and m 'was enough to have fun for hours!
Get a good sound: Do you see what a so-called "good sound" .. HK is not a TriAmp is no sun mesa is a little less than 100 amp, so a SUPER heuuu cool sounds for its price! Clear very correct, very good also saturated.
The many effects will also become familiar with the newbie what eg chorus, delay, reverb etc etc ...

SOUNDS

Should my style of music should a lot of things, the trick is finding the right sound on the whole range p0ropos, but rock, hard metal and are great to play it.
I started it with a BC Rich Warlock small, has made me a set of cheap lug around everywhere because I often travel.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a few months, I have a Marshall all-tube head cluck (I'll compare auccun case 2). I tried a few models (10 or 15w, but it was EXCELLENT, I do not regret it (except from the fact that there is no footswitch) the headphone jack is not very good for boost everyone home, between MP3 geniale backingtrack to put an and to take Kirk Hammett at the Stade de France. (we just put the MP3 player with headphones)
For 98 (in Woodbrass) I find it super cool, I referrer that choice without worry.

I refer to the technical or other advice on this aspect, it's a 15W model, with lots of built-in effects (phaser, flanger, chorus, delay, tube screamer, a reverb'...), headphone jack and an MP3 input.

I take this opportunity to talk about the finish (because I read some rather negative opinion on this point here). It is true that the control panel has a tendency to sink when you plug the jack. That said, it never broke or even gave the impression he was about to do.

I carried this amp in almost any car on the 200Km weekend for over a year and a half and have hit quite a few times (especially on the stairs ...) and it works just like the first day.

UTILIZATION

Not really simple at first, a lot of knobs that can be used by turning or pressing them ... For my part, I did not use the manual, I I learned on the job, so it is quite feasible, but it takes a little practice. That said, once past this phase, it is more ergonomic.

Note the presence of a rare "pre gain" and a "post gain". The first acts as a gain standard, while the other acts in fact as a single volume.

SOUNDS

For a modeling amp in this price range is rather stunning.

The models are numerous (each with a clean fashion and a saturated mode), which gives it great versatility, from jazz sounds (playing with the tone of the guitar) to the most violent Metal (some emulators are of Besides the default setting with a win rate very high).
Most emulations are based on neamoins sonoritées enough "vintage", and get a popping sound smooth and modern is not necessarily obvious (but one or two emulators still lend themselves quite well as long as your guitar to follow).

I mostly played with a Stratocaster American Standard, the slamming of the micro spring fever pretty well, the field of blues / jazz / country is easily accessible, as well as funk. Overdrive opens the doors of the blues-rock or pop has muscled the English, while the distortion leads to the Hard Rock Metal (but with my Start ', the big distortion sound still very "slimy") with a bluntly honest quality.

I also had the opportunity to test it with a Les Paul type guitar and uh ... well it's pretty close actually, and it affects one of the weaknesses of the amp (and this technology general) is that the personality of the guitar is not really developed.
The difference between single and humbucker pickups will not pass unnoticed, of course, not least in terms of output level or the dynamics and power of the treble, but the general character of the sound does not necessarily vary as much as what one would expect.

The different effects sound good and can be addressed quite briefly. I do not need to elaborate more on this point, it is far enough from the dedicated pedals, but it's still okay.
Last point: the power of 15W is perfect for playing alone in her room, but this amp as in the stomach, more than you might think, and I am sure that by pushing the Master must be able to cover a fairly quiet drummer.

OVERALL OPINION

In the end, it's a great amp for beginners given the price, which may largely confirmed troubleshoot the guitarist, not least due to the effect that integration and overall versatility.

The downside is the lack of character rather pronounced, but this defect is often inherent to this type of technology.
I just chan for a 15W all-tube, and there is a clear difference (from 300 € to be precise: p) but in this price range, it remains to me one of the best bargains on the market.
