    Ordered a Peavey 6505 Mini Head and Orange PPC112 Cabinet

    I was just thinking......today is my wedding anniversary. I wonder if the wife would like a Classic 20 as a present. Does she play guitar? Not a note, but isn't that irrelevant when it comes to buying gear? I could always return it if she did not like it (after I got done testing it). Just a...

    What did I just do?!

    You certainly did not come off as a braggart and I do not feel there is a need to apologize. I do see your point though and I do get where you are coming from. That said, the people who are on this forum for the right reasons will not be judging you because you can go out and buy a few new...

    Video - Peavey 6505 MH through Orange PPC112 using 2013 SG Standard

    As a side note. I love the fact that we are on a Marshall Forum talking about how great a Peavey amp is...LOL!! Love my Marshalls too.

    Video - Peavey 6505 MH through Orange PPC112 using 2013 SG Standard

    Great Vids yell03. What wattage were you on during the video demonstration? I did some experimenting last night and found the 20 watt clean channel to be very usable. I have not had luck on the 1w or 5w setting for single note picking. 20w gives you plenty of headroom though. I will agree...

    What did I just do?!

    Happy NGD and soon to be NGD and NAD. Enjoy!! That is awesome. There is no reason to just buy 1 guitar when you can buy 2 and an amp!! rock on!!

    Touche.....you make a valid point. My wife is the absolute best but I might be pushing my luck if any more packages show up for a while...lol. Well, I could have it sent to my office instead :hmm:. Gonna need to think about that. Will keep you posted!

    That is very unfortunate. As you stated earlier, the cleans are amazing. It is a fun amp to mess around with. The prices are starting to come down too. You can always pick one up again someday. Better yet, go get that Classic 20 and let us know what you think...LOL!!!

    I am anxious to hear your comparison on the EVH vs 6505 MH. I am so impressed with the tone I can get at low volume form the Peaverys. If the EVH does the same thing, that could be a game changer for sure. That said, if I ever see a Classic 20 for what I paid for my VK, I would grab it...lol.

    The bass on the VK is not as deep as the 6505 but I do not find it to be thin at all. Playing through either a 2x12 1936 Marshall Cab or a 2x12 Carvin V3 Cab. Both cabs are closed back. The cleans are amazing. All of that said, I do not think the VK has enough bass to get you into modern...

    NGD - 2006 Les Paul Custom - '68 RI Triburst

    Awesome score. I have the same guitar, except mine was built in 2008. I agree when you say she deserves to be photographed professionally. I do not have 1 pic of mine that does it justice. The top is just killer. It is an 11 pound beast for sure. Lots of luck and hope you have many hours...

    Ordered a Peavey 6505 Mini Head and Orange PPC112 Cabinet

    Still love them both. Both amps are obviously built off of the same platform and each is tweaked for certain characteristics. The 6505 is just a gain monster. It really has way more than you will ever need. That said the crunch and lead tones that you can get out of this thing at a very...

    Peavey Classic 20 Head. $499

    The other amps I currently have are Marshall DSL-40C, Marshall JMD-1 50 watt head, Carvin X-100B, and a Blackstar HT-5M. To me, the Valveking and the 6505 MH have all of the amps covered. I can get whatever tone I need out of one of the little amps and a very moderate volume. The 6505 MH in...

    Netflix anybody?

    I just got done watching season 1 of The Blacklist. Currently up to episode 6 in season 2. Just 16 more episode to watch in season 2 plus the 2 that just aired for season 3 to get caught up...lol!

    Peavey Classic 20 Head. $499

    I do not have the Classic 20 but I do have the Valveking 20 and 6505 MH. They are both incredible amps for the money. I can not speak from direct experience, but if the Classic is anything like the Valveking or the 6505, the amp should be a homerun.

    Ordered a Peavey 6505 Mini Head and Orange PPC112 Cabinet

    Totally agree. The gain is so good on the 6505 that I can not see the Valveking becoming the go to amp. However, the cleans on the Valveking seems to be excellent so I could have best of both worlds. I was able to get it shipped to my house for $320. I could not say no at that price. I...

    Ordered a Peavey 6505 Mini Head and Orange PPC112 Cabinet

    I only had a few minutes to mess around with the Valveking last night. It definitely does not pack the punch of the 6505MH but I figured that would be the case. Gain channel seems very smooth. The gain boost is impressive. The clean channel is very nice. I will definitely get some more time...

    Ok. I am either crazy or I just love to buy gear. I have made no bones about how much I love the Peavey 6505MH. I think it is the coolest little amp I have ever purchased. Well, based on my own experience with the 6505MH and my belief that Peavey really has hit a grand slam with this line of...

    Hey yell03...have you tried the lead channel with almost zero pre-amp gain. Very sweet tones that can eq's there. It is very close to the crunch channel but it seems a little tighter and fuller to my ears. Let me know what you think. Rock on!!

    I have had the mini head for almost a month now. Honeymoon period is over. I am actually playing more guitar now that I ever have. It is just so much fun to plug into this Peavey. Great crunch and lead channels. If you are looking for a low wattage head, you have to check it out. The cleans...
