MGR/Phil Taylor « Peavey Transtube 258 EFX »
Published on 01/04/08 at 15:00I used to play some 30 years ago casually and was in a band for awhile. Nothing serious - I found my niche as an audio engineer and only dabbled with the guitar. I recently got my five year old son an acoustic "real 'tar" he was wanting for Christmas and it rekindled the old interest in playing once again - even though I haven't
I bought it in a pawn shop for $70 - bargained down from $120 - in EXCELLENT condition. It looks like brand new! I went the local pawn shop route since I didn't want to sink a wad on something that may be collecting dust in a month or two since my work keeps me very busy.
It's small, light and easy to carry. Has GREAT effects built in - great clean sound and nice distortion - super chorus, rotary speaker emulation and delay. I also picked up a Cherry red and white Fender Squire Strat in super condition and the two compliment each other very well.
Nothing really - except it doesn't say Hi-Watt or Marshall on it and it hasn't magically transformed me into David Gilmour
But it can crank out great echo and chorus so I'm on my way...
Very well built and solid. No issues whatsoever. Corners are protected and although easy to carry has a well built feel to it.
I'd recommend it to anyone wanting an absolutely super sounding smaller amp that won't break your budget.
