"I paid $679 for a 50 watt tube amp and only $579 for a 100 watt with simular features. You cant beat it for the price"

Feature:
no accessories were included I ordered the footswitch, however you dont need it to change channels. but it does make it easy.

Quality:
For the money this amps construction is good, but remember your not buying 1200 dollar amp. The good thing about it construction is that it doesnt weigh a ton (69 lbs)for a one hundred watt amp, this is great

Value:
This amp is truly the best bang for the buck!!

Desirability:
The logo on this amp is awsome. Very appealing look

Sound:
This amp rocks, the tone is to die for. It has 3 new adjustments,1 for switching between A and B class and 2 damping controls. With a little tweeking you got any sound thats out there. Now theres no need to spend over a thousand for a good tube amp, this ones a winner. The cleans are equal to that of a fender and the distortion is better than my marshall stack Wow!

Ease of Use:
It took 2 minutes for me to discover how to use all the controls. The manual is short sweet and straight to the point. I does help to know a little about tube amps to understand the A/B switching.

Support:
I have owned many peavey amps over the years , the best thing is if you need anything just call. I called and got a footswitch and had it in 3 days

Overall:
I've own or have owned most brand tube amps the features on this one are simple and very effictive and are great. I would like to see the addition of a reverb switch input jack If this amp ever gets stolen I would have to replace it at once

"A professional amp for a serious musician who takes pride in quality tones"

Feature:
Two distortion channels (regular and high-gain also loudness boost) A crisp clean channel with a bright setting and an A/B class tube converters (never seen one of those before) not to mention spring reverb and high and low end dampening settings

Quality:
This is a top of the line amp. Its price is low for its quality and in my opinion it is as high a quality that anyone would ever need in an amp. Two great sounding, very pretty speakers and a handful of very impressive tubes.

Value:
This is a steal for the price. It will be the last amp you ever need

Desirability:
This is a sexy amp. I eyeballed it for months before I was able to get it and through all of my researching I didnt find anything that looked so close to my ideal combo amp

Sound:
The Peavey Valve King 212 has some of the greatest sound potential that I have ever seen, without the use of effects. The tone is so flexible that many owners believe it to not have such a great sound. Each option is so precise and sensitive that it can be hard to create the distortion that you are looking for, but it is in the amps capabilities. It only takes a good knowledge of what needs to be adjusted. Ive owned this amp for a year and I play it everyday.

Ease of Use:
It is a large amp that could be considered fragile (tubes) It has alot of knobs and the tones are very sensitive so it might take a little bit of practice to achieve optimal tone editing.

Support:
Mine shorted out due to bad electricity in my house and I just brought it in and got it fixed for free in a few weeks. Not bad at all. Though it was a slight challenge finding a place to go to so I would not have to ship it in.

Overall:
I will never get tired of this amp. I will only get better at using its features. Warm rich tones from here on out.

News
The Peavey ValveKing Series is a new, all-tube guitar amp line combining boutique features and hot-rodded tones with legendary Peavey reliability. 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 exclusive feature, guitarists can coax virtually any tone from this tweaked-out amplifier. The amp's preamp and power sections are powered by 6L6GC and 12AX7 tubes, respectively, and drive specially voiced 12 inch ValveKing loudspeakers (112 and 212 versions only).

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).
