Since 1965, guitar players have been showcasing their skills with Peavey amplifiers. Since that time, the Peavey name has earned itself praise from countless top recording artists, including Eddie Van Halen, Joe Satriani and Jerry Cantrell. Whether you're a hardcore punker, a head banging metal shredder or even a sophisticated jazz cat, Peavey's line of guitar amps has something for every taste. Just spend a little time in this section, and you'll find the perfect match for your playing style in no time.
Of course, before making any quick decisions, it helps to consider your own needs and preferences first. For example, if you're a stay-at-home hobbyist - or even if you're looking for something to record with - you probably wouldn't need anything too colossal. Luckily, Peavey has a wide range of combo amps to choose from, and the ValveKing II 20 20W 1x12 Tube Guitar Combo Amp is a popular seller. Combining boutique quality with hot-rodded tones, this model boasts a cool variety of features. To name a few, it has a USB-direct recording output, variable power control and a built-in MSDI XLR direct interface that eliminates the need for miking and lets you send the amp's signal straight into a mixing console. Versatile and easy to operate, the ValveKing is ideal for jazz, rock and metal musicians alike.
Now for those who perform live often and want something that really packs a punch, you might be in the market for a new head - in which case, check out the 6505 120W Guitar Amp Head. Delivering an impressive amount of volume, the 6505 serves up to 120 watts of crunch, courtesy of five 12AX7s in the preamp and four 6L6s in the power amp. Additionally, it has a footswitchable lead/rhythm channel select, 3-band EQ, effects loop and presence controls on each channel. More often than not, this head is the go-to choice of touring professionals thanks to its durability and raw power.
As you can imagine, Peavey's catalog of guitar amps goes well beyond these two items. From solid-state stacks to portable tube heads and a seemingly endless array of cabinets, Peavey is committed to anyone who has an appetite for plugging in and cranking to 10. So have a look through the rest of their options - you'll be glad you did.
