H.F. Yeah on the peavey classic 50. I bought a 212 last week and switched over at the second set last night from my old one. I really thought the old one sounded good and ornery. But this new one has a good bark. I had it on like 3 or 4 out of 12 and it untied my shoes at 4 paces. There must have been something wrong with the old one. It was like half as loud.
I see them normally for $799, but every once in a while you see them for $499 as a closeout. I didn't see too many used that had a really good price tht seemed worth getting someone else's amp that they treat like shit because it's only a Peavey.
Funny story. Last night at the gig, it was totally dead and we were just having fun playing songs of the extras sheet that we never do. On a break, there were these 2 old English ladies at the bar and this one says to me "What's with this Peavey rubbish?", she said it twice, because I couldn't believe this old lady would even cognate a brand of amps. I start talking to her and the other old lady says "She's Marshall". It turns out that she married into the Marshall amp family and goes to all these dinners and stuff where all the rock stars are. She asked about my homemade guitar and I told her I built it because I read an article a long time ago that Brian May was a physicist and built his guitar that he still used at the time when he was in high school. She says "Oh, Brian May. I sat with him a few weeks ago at a dinner. He is just a <insert some proper English flattery> guy..." She was talking about meeting slash a week before.
She may have been bullshitting me, but God, that was a great ruse. Two old English ladies vacationing in the US and claim to be the Dutchess of Triumph or Benny Hill's cousin.

I once fucked off this piece of female arrogance, taking her story of being a major player in Del Amitri's sound team with a serious packet of salt......................only to find that she was!!!!!!
she hated me big time.................but fuck she was up herself
yeah you can never tell who you're talking to
& spinal tap's eleven can go suck..........................these (PV classics) go to twelve

I have a Fender Blues Delux. Doesn;t really break at all on the clean channel until well cranked (8-12). Used for probabaly $400. The single big speaker can get a little boomy, but with EQ it can be worked with nicely, and if you have an external cab with decent speakers, I hear they sound even better.
Great tone, and the OD channel is loud as a mutha when you need it (but still doesn't break up into death metal distortion at all).
Pretty versitile amp IMO, a couple pedals and you can do quite a bit with it.

I know you said Tube Amp, and I agree, but look intoa little gem called "Lab Series." It was designed by Moog and Gibson used them. Made in the US up by Chicago. I had an L4 and it was stolen 
amazing on guitar or bass and you can get them at a really decent price (I don't think I've seen one go over $300 ever). The con is that they're solid state, but man, what an amp!

You could really do your tone some justice by saving more money.I dont
care what style you play.
There are good tube amps in the 500 range,but nothing that is awesome,
and certainly nothing that is extremely versitile.

I agree they're good. I just saw a used delta blues for 200-350 bucks over on guitarcenter.com in the used section toward the bottom of the page.slidey said:

Right on, I used to have one too and they are awesome. Sorry to hear it got stolen. Did you keep the serial # ? If so you could post it places and inform those in your area to be on the lookout and check their equipment, you might get lucky. I think everyone should keep those kind of records for just that reason, and if you can afford it, which I can't, I'd get it insured too.hungovermorning said:I know you said Tube Amp, and I agree, but look intoa little gem called "Lab Series."
