Rule this Peavey combo amp like a king with the Vari-Class Class A/AB simulation -- it lets you nail the perfect balance of British and American tube tone.

In addition to all the boutique qualities and hot-rodded tones that guitarists have come to expect from the Peavey ValveKing series, the next generation line incorporates cutting-edge features for recording and performing musicians. For the recording musician, the ValveKing features a USB direct recording output, which pipes the miked amp vibe directly into a computer. On the rear panel, the built-in Peavey MSDI (Microphone Simulated Direct Interface) XLR direct interface eliminates the need for miking by allowing users to send the amp's signal directly to a recording device or mixing console.

Great amp once I replaced the speaker with an Eminence Texas Heat. Now I get all the tone and sound I need. The clean channel sparkles and the dirty channel gives me just the right amount of grit.

Musical Background:

I have been playing guitar for many years. I also play mandolin and mandola. Currently in a working blues band.

Musical Style:

Blues, Rock, Jazz, Bluegrass
