Product Description

Featuring 24 amp channel models -- both the clean and distorted channels of 12 popular amps for the first time anywhere -- plus 11 editable preamp "stomp box" effects and 11 editable post-amp "rack" effects with dual-parameter control. Players can use up to five effects simultaneously. When used with the optional Peavey Sanpera foot controller, the possibilities further expand from 12 in-amp presets to 400 programmable presets, with an on-board looper and more. The Vypyr also acts as its own computer audio interface, with a built-in studio-quality USB 2.0 output on most models that is recognized by computers as an audio device. The entire six-model Vypyr Series features the easy-to-use Peavey WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) interface.

With double the processing power, models and effects of competitive modeling amplifiers, the Vypyr Series dramatically redefines the power and scope of modern guitar amplification. Vypyr amplifiers are based on a combination of powerful 32-bit, floating-point SHARC processors and patented TransTube analog circuitry.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (25 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great Amp!"
Overall: The Vypyr 30 amp is a perfect nice amp for me. I have a large full sized 120watt tube amp that rocks, but I wanted something a little smaller for a practice amp. This amp is a perfect fit for my needs. It has plenty of power & many times I don't even turn past 1 on the volume for personal practice. I love all the amp models and the ease of use and I don't need a pedal board to get the sounds I am looking for. The only thing that I wished was included in this amp, is I wished that it had a built in jack for speaker out so I could run into a 4x12 or 2x12 cab, will have local music shop put one in for me. It uses a 8ohm speaker that sounds rather nice, of course its not high end, but does a decent job for my purposes. I really like the tones that I can get out of this amp. Is it like a tube amp or does it sound as good as a tube amp? Simple answer is no, however its one of the best solid state amps that I have ever heard and you can't go wrong with getting one for yourself. Great Value!!!
Style of Music: A little bit of everything. What ever tickles my fancy at the time as I don't ever want to constrained to one type of music.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Highly recommend the Vypyr 30 modeling amp."
Sound: Excellent Stomp Box and Effects encoders and they all sound great at High and Low gains. Even played at low gain this amp still retains its presence and punch. No need for tons of foot pedals especially if you get the Sanpera foot controller as I did. Feature: This amp has everything. I added its Sanpera foot controller and it is complete. You can't find a better amp in this category even if you spend three times the money. Ease of Use: Very easy get great sounds from this amp The interface is intuitive and after working with it for an hour, it was easy is it to edit the sound to taste and save them. In a clean mode even used it with several of my acoustics. It excels with a decent axe. I used it with my Strat and Les Paul and I could get any sound I wanted. There is a slight learning curve but I believe even a beginner can use the preset sounds/effects and be off and running in seconds. The manual is clear and to the point. Quality: This product has a lot of engineering design thought and built in to it. The product is well made. It came pristine as regards its finish and fit. No cosmetic blemishes. The product has been reliable. It is being used on gigs each week as well as in the studio. The speaker is the same as in the 75 watt model and it can be cranked and speaker produces true tone. A studio set of headphones allows you to us it as a practice amp but if you bring it on gigs you will not be disappointed when you and your audience hear it live. Value: This product is actually worth more than its selling price and as compared to other modeling amps priced a lot higher. Manufacturer Support: I have dealt with the manufacturer of this amp for 30 years. This Vypyr 30 is my fourth Peavey I own. Have also bought Keyboard and Bass amps from that manufacturer and never been disappointed. I still have my three earlier Peaveys. I made it a point to speak to their engineers concerning this modeling amp before I purchased it from ZZounds. The manufacturer’s engineers answered all my questions. The Wow Factor: I do not get into the "sex appeal" of a product. But with all the lights and built-in tuner stomp boxes and effects loops it has a very compelling appeal aesthetically. It is indeed a technical marvel but beyond its practical use it way too cool! It will be a great addition to my gear. Overall: I expect to be satisfied with this trans tube modeling amp product for a long time to come. I would compare this product superior to others I considered and I spent hours playing them all before finally decided on this one.
Style of Music: Rock, Contemporary, and Jazz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
