I chose the Peavey Penta because of many reasons. I'm able to get extremely clean sound from it. I can also get a "heavy metal" sound from it and everything in between and it is extremely well built. I'm confident that this amp will last for many, many years.

It is the best Guitar Amp that I have ever owned. Very well built and superb sounding.

"Peavey Penta with Penta half stack is the best sounding setup I have ever owned!"
Verified Customer

At the present time, I love the Peavey Penta and Penta half stack as-is. I expect to have this for many years and if it were stolen, I would reorder the Peavey Penta and the Penta half stack. The quality of the "sounds" that the Penta produces is what I really love about this amp. I am enjoying this amp so much that I'm playing guitar much longer per day now.
Sound
I am able to get many superb sounds from it. I am very impressed with the sound quality.
Features
I love it as-is.
Ease of Use
It's one of the easiest Amps to use. And the sound quality is very deepthful. The manual just consist of a few pages but this amp does not need an extensive manual.
Quality
It extremely well made and it's working superbly. I need to use it for a few years before we can talk about reliability. No blemishes are on it. Superb parts are used throughout so I expect it to last many years.
Value
The Peavey Penta is worth every penny it cost. I presently also own a Fender Dual Showman 100 Watt Tube Amp and the Peavey Penta puts it to shame.
Manufacturer Support
Peavey has superb support and I called them, with a few questions, before I purchased their Penta and Peavey has always given superb support. This is the second Peavey Amp that I bought from Peavey.
The Wow Factor
I really like the way it looks. When I first heard that the vinyl covering was green, I sad ...oh no! BUT, it looks great. It's a nice looking dark green and the Peavey Penta half stack also looks great.

"Peavey has done a remarkable job with their Penta Tube Guitar Amplifier"
I have owned quite a few guitar amplifiers in the over 35 years that I have been playing guitar and I can honestly say, the Peavey Penta is the best guitar amp that I have ever owned or used. It's extremely well made, no hum or buzz and it's a very superb sounding guitar amp. I really do like it a lot. I have owned it close to a year now and it's one of the best buys that I have made in a very long time.
