Rhythmic, not bad in lead, and although you have to like that it's not good at all, Each one of these tastes!
Try that's all.
NOTICE GLOBAL
Since one and a half years it seems to me, I use it only very rarely.
So what I do not understand these integrated amps that go a CD, is that there is no volume ddi so that the CD is bottom power, unless it ' is a player with volume or output phone.
I have not tried other amps before, and I the ailleure regrte.
He was in the promo and I was just looking for a small amp for home.
Despite everything, this little amp can dpanner for a first amp before buying
a true history of playing with his guitar into an amp.
I do not do this choice, too medium for me, at the little hp and petty cash.See less00 - VosraiderPublished on 12/27/13 at 11:12 (This content has been automatically translated from French)It is a transistor amp 15 watts with a supposed imitate the sound of a tube amp technology.

OVERALL OPINION
I use it for about a year, I have tried many other models in its class, not forbid wrong but it is not the best. The fact that the drive channel is unusable can make versatile. It readily accepts distortion and other effects that can overcome this lack of versatility.
In the end it is a good amp for beginners or for those who only have a small budget, it is a good value for money, but with hindsight I do not have that choice in its category there good number of amps that surpasses cheerfully.See less31 - MGR/David W..
Peavey Rage 158
Published on 02/05/04 at 15:00I went to a local shop and looked around to find an amp for christmas because I was in need of one. I was on a $100 budget, so I found this Peavey amp. The guy at the desk played every type of song in this, so I bought it.
When at high power, the distortion sounds almost like a tube amp. The clean sounds pretty good.
When at low, there is no distortion, even on the distortion channel. No effects (you get what you pay for). Distortion can be a little funky sounding at times, which is why I want to get a pedal.
This seems high quality, even though I've only had it for a few months. I have dropped it hard before, but it only got a few knicks.

This is a pretty solid amp that can last you if you don't want to play a gig. It's a good practice amp. The distortion isn't that good, so you might want to get a pedal.

Peavey Rage 158
Published on 05/22/03 at 15:00I bought this amp from Electrohill in London, for £65. I needed a practice amp, with a fair range of effects.
The size is good. The volume is quite a loud for its size. I like the cd input, which you can play along with stereo. The option to use headphones is a nice feature.
And the clean sound is excellent. I actually prefer the way it looks than a Marshall.
You can't get a good distorted sound out it. Its not practible to play with other instruments. Theres not a whole lot of choice with effects, so I had to fork out another £65 for an effects pedal.
Its very well built. Its really good looking. It's not too fragile, for those travelling.

Peavey Rage 158
Published on 04/13/02 at 15:00I acquired the Peavey Rage 158 from someone who was moving away and needed to pass the amp on. Then, I was a beginning guitarist, I'd only been playing for three or four months and I had a Johnson strat copy as my only guitar. Asides from a few dinky 10 watt practice amps, the Rage was my first serious amp. I got it because I wanted something that was capable of live play. The Rage, I believe, retails from 60 to 100 dollars...I didn't pay anything though.
The Rage is capable of a pretty big sound. As I advanced as a musician, I bought effects pedals and new guitars. I had my Gibson through a Toneworks pedal and a Yamaha Mixer, and the Rage certainly held up.

The Rage, I believe, retails from 60 to 100 dollars...I didn't pay anything though.
The Rage is capable of a pretty big sound. As I advanced as a musician, I bought effects pedals and new guitars. I had my Gibson through a Toneworks pedal and a Yamaha Mixer, and the Rage certainly held up. The sound is pretty heavy on the Rage...As long as you put your guitar through something. If you plug the guitar straight into the amp, the sound really isn't that great or that big. But it can handle a lot of power. For the longest time, I thought it was a 40 watt amp, but it's only 15...15 watts can be more than you need sometimes. I play rythm, and if you hit the guitar hard, the rage's sound can be heard over drums, bass and a lead guitar. Trust me on that.
What I don't like is that I'm really overdriving this thing...I feel like my overdrive is artificial. Like this isn't what the Rage was meant to do. It's certainly a satisfying distortion sound through the pedal and the mixer, but the Rage is better as a practice amp...low volume, one-person amp. I don't like its sound sometimes, either. It really sounds like crap sometimes over the other amps I've got.
I know this thing is durable, but it fell apart on me last week. The electronics fell out of the motherboard, and when I tried to fix it, it didn't work. I don't know. The quality's alright, the thing can get loud if overdriven enough, but there are better sounds in other amps.
The Rage is a solid practice amp, but not enough for the gig.

Peavey Rage 158
Published on 03/24/02 at 15:00i bought this amp at a local store for about $80, beacuse i needed a practice amp. and i wish i never bought it!
well i dont like much about this amp, but what i do is the cd input, so i can play along with the music. and it has a really nice sounding clean tone, wich is good for me some times.
the main thing i dislike about this amp is the gain, it is terrible, i wouldnt even call it distortion. it sounds so bad its not even funny, when i first put it on over drive i was like "thats it?" and the modern vintage choice is a joke also, thers not much of a diffrence just like the clean and overdrive. and it dosent even have reverb, wich really sucks, all amps should have reverb.

well i guess its pretty well built, ive kicked it pretty damn hard and threw it across the room and it still sounds the same, wich isnt what i wanted.
so bottom line, if u play clean guitar, well this amp is a good choice, beacuse it couldnt distort if speaker blew. i like the amp for some clean playing once and a while, but i like to play metal, with lots of distortion, and this dosent come close. i use it for a mic amp sometimes, and it sounds alright. but for distorted guitar playin it sucks, but if u play clean guitar this amp is wonderfull. im giving a 3 beacuse it is a good clean amp, so it has some use.

After I had to have during my few years of guitar amps about 8 or 9 "beginners" which I have passed through the hands for one reason or another, and I must say that compared to many it is doing no harm! Generally there are only a crunch / overdrive in the amp like this, this, by putting the volume can be much further!

SOUNDS
This amp sounds only fair. First of all it is small, so you won't get any giant, loud sounds out of it. It is a solid state distortion on the lead channel that sounds a bit grainy and dull. The EQ section on it behaves as you'd expect, but the sound of the amp is not great to begin with. The clean channel on this amp is pretty sterile and clear, but doesn't really add anything. There are no built-in effects on this amp to sweeten the deal. If you maybe boost the low and mid depending on your guitar you can get a passable distortion sound but this is no Fender or Mesa.
OVERALL OPINION
This was my first guitar amp, I've had it for years and just decided to keep it around. It is small, so it's portable and convenient if you just want it for casual jamming. It is also pretty cheap, which is always nice. However the sound is certainly short of spectacular. Most of what comes out of this amp is pretty tame and thin sounding, there isn't a lot of depth. Also, the distortion tone doesn't change much when you vary the pre knob like you'd get from a nice tube amp, it's all pretty much the same at different volumes. You just have to mess with the EQ section. It is a good value for a beginning guitarist who just wants to be able to hear his guitar as he learns with a little bite on it. Other than that, I'd probably pass on it.See less00
