My first and only amp I've needed was my '92 peavey classic 50. I got it in 1999, and have never replaced or serviced a single thing. Original tubes, capacitors, everything. It has stood up to hundreds of gigs and practices from my various punk bands, always played with the gain maxed out on the lead channel. It's been dropped many times, fell on, kicked, spilled on, snowed on, rained on, stored in damp basements for months.... still works perfect. Not as clean as this one (kinda rusty, missing 1/3 of the knobs), but it still sounds awesome. Sometimes it gets a little squeal, but a good rap on the side with a whiskey bottle clears that up. I have been meaning to replace the tubes for a couple years, but since it still works great I haven't got around to it. Love this amp.

Exactly! But I bought mine already used and beat up around 1995. 🤘🏻😝🎸 I did have to get the filter fuse swapped out once. Since I am playing and gigging so much again, I have been doing a deep dive on tubes and speakers. So after all these years, I just installed two Vintage 30s. I just got off work,and looking forward to dialing in some great tones. Hopefully it’s not too wild for my Texas Blues I’ve been playing a lot of lately. I know it will continue to be great for my Metal for sure. 🤘🏻😝🎸🇺🇸

I have a 1991 Peavey Classic 50 410, that I bought when I was 18 after playing the same model that my guitar teacher had in his studio. I fell in love with the sensitivity of the overdrive and the crystal clarity of the cleans. The spring reverb that comes standard is not bad at all and sounds right at home with classic rock. It makes a great platform for effects pedals since the clean channel is so clean. I'm so happy I bought the amp when I did since the original 90s production amps are beginning to get hard to find.

I've had my Peavey Classic 50 for 27 years now - and it's virtually mint - never gigged with it. Mine was made the first year Peavey manufactured it, and it's the only year it came without an effects loop. As my other main amp is a '60s Blackface Fender Twin - which has WAY too much horsepower for playing at home - I mainly bought it because I loved that it would produce great clean, bluesy and jazz sounds with wonderful tone, but at lower volumes. AND it responds wonderfully to the volume and tone knobs of my guitar. So, it has the over-driven horsepower if you want it, but you don't have to make your ears bleed to get its clean sounds. My only real gripe about the amp is, looking from the front of the amp to its back, the control knobs are labeled upside-down - meaning, if you can't walk behind the amp to adjust the controls, it's kind of inconvenient to read the controls. Tradition? I have heard someone say, in the distant past, players used to stand behind their amps. I find that assertion questionable. But, in subsequent years, Peavey remedied this labeling to read correctly when view the controls from the front of the amp.

One of my favorite go-to videos for this amp. Been coming back to this after so many years. But, Mike is right…something has been done to that amp. That gain is the best sounding gain channel I’ve heard coming out of this amp. It’s tighter, and punchier than a typical Classic 50. Sounds absolutely spectacular. And, something else is that this is actually a very warm, tweed style amp. GREAT blues amp . But, the dirty channel doesn’t sound quite this amazing on these amps. This is definitely something really special.

Bought mine in 1994, got the effects loop which I never use since I am a rhythm player and mostly use the clean channel to get a great jazz sound with my Epiphone Broadway, or A nice rock sound with my Tele Special. First heard the 410 from a lead player, insane sound, bought the 212 for more bass resonance more suited to my rhythm sound. I love this amp, best one i have ever owned, will buy another when this one dies, if it ever does, 65lb moose, may grab a 30 112 just for the reduced weight.

I picked up a Peavey Classic 50w x12 for $75 a couple years back. What a great deal for such a great amp. I recently unscrewed the amp section and the spring reverb uint from the speaker cab so I can use the head in the control room and the speaker cab in the studio room. I use it mainly for clean, chimey stuff. I like the way you dialed in the distortion, but for some reason it never fit with the tracks I was producing. I always end up using the Peavy for clean and the Orange for dirty.

I've just played one yesterday and I was surprised how much gain it has, more than my jcm800 by its own...and the speakers are cool too...but honestly I can't say much more, I played it for only few minutes with SD hot rails too and an SD1 for boosting at times...I don't know if its voice is suited for hard rock & metal like the Marshalls and if it sounds as huge and rpesent, but it sounds great for sure, maybe a little bit fuzzier. At first I tought it was a cheaper Bassman, with the same dark voice and poor gain...plus when switched to the clean channel it seemed to have a very focused bright sound even with the neck pickup and the tone rolled off a bit. I think it has definitely a convincing pro sound...worth a check!
@MikeBurn6 жыл бұрын
To be honest the Peavey Classic is probably not the first choice for metal stuff, since it has a clear weakness in bass response. Especially in lower tunings like drop -D you will notice this and it also doesn't help to connect a additional 4x12 cabinet. It is a mid and presence monster. However the amp can offer a very nice lead sound for some metal tracks for a change. :))
