Sound
I love the sound, great for rock and metal with a good distortion pedal. My teacher bought it today and called me over to try it out and I loved it. It made me wanna pull a Pete Townshend and crush my guitar. That sound makes you do things you would not normaly do. That's how f****** awsome it is!
Ease of Use
You can plug straight in, don't even need a distortion pedal!
Quality
Well made, worth the huge price.
Value
Kinda pricey but worth it.

Peavey 6505 Half Stack Customer Review

Sound
the amp just seems to be overpowered for itself.....the tube readings were very uneven so that made me iffy using my studio equipment with it, if the tubes ever blow its sends out a surge that will fry any fuses or electronic devices used with it
Features
the foot pedal was a good idea with this one but i had my sanpera foot pedal so the one i got with the amp is still in box
Ease of Use
very easy to use amp....it was a bit too easy to use actually
Quality
it has a great look but the stock tubes with it were very unsatisfying. also the amp seemed to have ventilation issues......DO NOT USE THIS AMP AT A GIG where you will play for more than a couple hours
Value
too pricey for the flaws
