    Poll - Best Version Of The 5150 Series Amps?

    I can say that the size of the head is relative to the size of the tone lol. It took me a while to get a 100s to compare, but when I did, the 50s went away pretty quick.

    Poll - Best Version Of The 5150 Series Amps?

    l've had so many 5150s over the years. My order, of the ones I've owned, would be this. The ones I've really liked. 5153 100S (this is my all time favorite amp. The red channel has this weight to it that I love. I have 2 of these.) 5150 212 combo (the most unique and awesome of the Peaveys)...

    PRS Archon 50 - Seems to get alot of love, yet under the radar?? Hidden Gem?

    Yeah, videos seem good, but I haven't played that one. I know they supposedly tweaked a few things with it.

    PRS Archon 50 - Seems to get alot of love, yet under the radar?? Hidden Gem?

    I had a USA Archon and an MT15 at the same time. I don't remember if mine was 50 or 100. It sounded awesome, and recorded extremely well, but ultimately I sold it because the low end wasn't tight enough. It had a response similar to the OG 5150. It was improved with a boost, for sure, but I...

    Kruse amps opinions?

    I had a 5150 50w modded by Kruse some years back. Sounded like a big mess. He shipped it back to me with no preamp tubes and told me all the preamp tubes were bad so he just threw them out. Fucking weird.

    Lundgren M6 vs Black Heaven

    No experience with the black heaven, but I have a black winter in a guitar, have had a few Nazguls, and had an M6. The M6 has this more thuddy character to it that's pretty cool vs the BW or Nazgul.

    Tube amp recording volume. How low can you go? [Updated. Part 2: Straight in]

    Always mics. I had a Weber Mass back in those days, but I was never happy with the DI sounds. Here is one I did with little man hanging out in the same room. This was 11-12 years ago, I guess. Clips would be under NinjaRaf on most forums. For whatever reason RT is the only one that's different lol.

    How many of you have old cassette recordings of yourself?

    I have one tape that my cousin and I recorded with a mic in front of some Marshall cab he had in the 90s. We used our shoes stacked on top of each other to make a mic stand lol. I don't have a tape player, but I will keep that tape forever, especially since he is gone now.

    Tube amp recording volume. How low can you go? [Updated. Part 2: Straight in]

    I used to record at low volumes exclusively for a few years after my kid was born, and living in an apartment. Worked better than anything direct for me, as well.

    Sold Gutierrez Juggernaut

    Glad this worked out, and it's going to someone who will appreciate it vs some rando lol! I loved this guitar a lot and played the shit out of it for about 4-5 years, but I have a handful of customs now that I gravitate toward more, so it just kinda sits.

    Help deciding on a mesa Mark 5 or 7

    I've had the MT15, Fireball 25, and EVH LBX all do pretty well against a drummer with a 212 or 412...though the LBX was just kinda barely getting there. The MT15 was me and my other guitar players main amps for a few years. The V3m is a 50 watt amp, if I remember right, so I would expect that to...

    Help deciding on a mesa Mark 5 or 7

    I had the 25, and it was awesome at home and recording, but didn't have enough power to hold up with a metal drummer. Kinda sucked because other small amps were able to hold up fine. But yeah, I agree, expensive practice amp lol. I think if you don't play out, these are perfect.

    Help deciding on a mesa Mark 5 or 7

    Owned a V25, V90, and a VII (and a couple of IVs, and a JP2C). Of the 2 you mention, the VII is by far the better amp. But the small Vs are pretty good, but for me didn't hold up in a band context. I did not like the V90 at all.

    VH140c vs iic+

    haha no, still waiting on my JP repairs. And I just spent $2600 on a Hapas V today lol. I think the JP will do what I need until I actually do buy one, but I will get one at some point.

    Sold Gutierrez Juggernaut

    This is my Gutierrez Juggernaut. Friend of mine (Laura - used to post around here) had this built somewhere around 2007/2008. I got it in 2014/2015. Pickups are a Seymour Duncan Custom and a Seymour Duncan Lil 59 in the neck. Single volume control. Stainless frets. Dunlop flush mount strap...

    EVH 5150III Stealth 100S - Euge

    I love my 100S. It's my favorite all time amp to date. I've had the 50 watt Stealth and have a standard 50 watt 6l6 just because it's easier to move around, but it's not even close. The 100S sounds as big as it is, physically lol. Perfect metal amp, IMO.

    A friend of mine has narrowed his new amp search to an EVHIII 100 watt standard 6L6 or Stealth 6L6, Stealth has resonance controls....

    Both are great amps, but I 100% prefer the Stealth. More gain and aggression. Deciding whether or not it's worth the extra money is so subjective, but for me it absolutely was. The Iconic is a good amp, but it does not compete to the 100 watt EVH heads, IMO.
