Peavey Valve King 100 Guitar Amplifier Head (100 Watts)

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. Learn More...

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.

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.
