Description
From Our Catalog
Peavey ValveKing amps feature a patent-pending, variable Class A-A/B control called Texture, which allows sweepable selection between Class A and Class A/B power structures, as well as any combination of the two. With this feature, guitarists can coax virtually any tone from this tweaked-out amplifier. The amp's preamp and power sections use 12AX7 and 6L6GC tubes, respectively.
Additional standard features include two footswitchable channels with independent, three-band EQ and volume, plus a footswitchable gain/volume boost on the lead channel to provide extra volume for solos. ValveKing amps also feature global resonance, presence and reverb controls, a buffered effects loop and dual speaker jacks in parallel (head and 212 only).

Peavey Valve King 100 Guitar Amplifier Head (100 Watts) Reviews
10 out of 10
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
"Absolutely the very best for only $500."
Feature:
For $500, what could you possibly want that this amp doesn't have?
Quality:
This is my first Peavey product. All I keep reading now is how solid and reliable their equipment is. This amp looks incredibly well built and also looks cool too.
Value:
$500 and it sounds every bit as good and maybe better than my Mesa Boogie? You figure it out.
Desirability:
Awesome looking Head. Very cool Peavey logo.
Sound:
I have a Mesa Boogie Mark IV. This is every bit as good and much simpler to use. I will probably not use any effects except for delay because this thing is a Monster!! It howls and growls but is quiet as a mouse when not playing.
Ease of Use:
Simple operation, took me 5 minutes to unpack, plug in, set the volume and tone and then, it blew me away!!
Support:
I'm rating a 10 because although I just got it, I had to wait 6 weeks and in the interim, the Peavey sales rep called me to apologize for the wait. He said they have a huge hit on their hands and can't keep it in stock.
Overall:
I will wear this amp out and go buy another one. But, I doubt that will happen for many, many years. I am sold on Peavey now and my next amp will be their Delta Blues model.

"Peavey Valveking rocks"
Feature:
2 channels, one great lead channel and one awesome clean with bright button to get it to sound like a clean Fender amp. Well built and really not much more to say. Had it for 3 month now and Im still in love with it. Not only looks good but plays good. Effects loop as well.
Quality:
Hard to judge but as I wrote, look sturdy and hasnt given me any problems yet.
Value:
Top notch.
Desirability:
Aye, its well built, sexy looking, awesome sounding monster.
Sound:
I cannot belive the sound this monster makes. It can do everything from Jazz to 5105 EVH brownsound. You can set it up to sound like a marshall as well. I can only find 2 things wrong with it, you need to turn the lead channel up to at least 2 to set it free and interfierance from computers can be heard.
Ease of Use:
See sound. Loads of possibilities. Specially the texture knob on the backside.
Support:
Cant judge but homepage looks good. Loads of good players use Peavey so the must have done something right.
Overall:
This'll last me for years I predict.
