So I'm just wondering.. when I got my 5150 II another seller who had a halfstack package deal offered me the cab he had left from selling the head for £100 OBO (This isn't the same guy I got my 5150 II off by the way)
And I've seen another one today for £100...
Just thinking, for practice...
On HCAF there's alot BTBAM hate but seriously... though he's not the best player in the world, his playing never ceases to inspire and amaze me because of the progressive nature of his playing and how he dabbles in jazz, prog, and even country briefly on the "Colors" album.

I'm sure there's been posts on this before.
I'm asking because a friend is looking for a new head, currently owns an old Marshall valve combo but wants more balls and gain.
He asked me about this and I said it was slightly suspect because it's a new Marshall, has built in reverb (Don't know...
So my friend is looking into a new amp and I pointed him in the direction of the Peavey 5150/6505 / II/+ because of the style of music he's into, their reliability and value for money etc etc.
He's been talking to me about Bugeras, I've told him that because of resale value and quallity...
...and it weirdly didn't sound that bad. It made everything I played sound like it'd been run through a rack and been mixed etc, which was kinda weird, it was noisy as fuck and made everything I played sound like generic metal riffing but oh well.
What the fuck do these things do?! in a way I...
I don't think I'm completely satisfied with my Boss 7 band EQ for my 5150 II and I've herd great things about the MXR 10 band EQ.
What do you think? also. Is it worth investing in a KFK 10 band? What's the difference?
What I mean is, say you have your 6l6 or El34 (6l6 in my case) amp biased perfectly, and you throw in another set of 6l6s from a different brand, or same brand (I wanna know both) really what's the largest difference you can expect from a matched quad?
I've installed JJs into my 5150 II but...
I saw something just now about the Boss RV-5 and thought it would be cool as I'm looking at buying a delay pedal and think it would be cool to include reverb into my sound, for more loose riffs, stoner/doom metal stuff aswell. Gojira have some riffs with reverb that sound really evil with...
Which one is better?
I would assume that having a preamp and a power amp would give you much more flexibility.. also I'm not sure but could you have two channels on the power amp foot switchable and have two different preamps running into it?
What does RT think? Would the rack setup not be...
So I've heard great things about the invader, Savage, Fireball and Blackmore, but not much love for the Powerball and haven't heard much about the SE.
Discuss/ :checkthisout:
I heard that somewhere, I have 6l6 EH's in my 5150 II aswell as I think two EH 12ax7s, three JJ 12ax7s and 1 Marshall 12ax7.
Was just wondering, cause the 12ax7s aren't bulletproof like Sovtek are said to be.
Now I don't want to be told to use my ear or find the right tuning for my music. :D
Just want a kinda idea what stoner/doom bands use for tunings.

Thanks.
Laney Gh50L? TT100h? Marshall DSL?
I'm looking at a head format, my 5150 II isn't cutting it for every style I play though I love it still for hard rock and metal, and bluesy tones actually. :confused:
I'm kinda on a budget and I won't be buying straight away. I'm playing so much clean stuff...
