Peavey Ultra Plus - Some Drop Tuned riffing featuring my Gibson LPC

[ultimatemetalguitartones]

I don't know if this amp is overlooked or underrated but I freaking love it!
This is the Ultra channel with the gain at 5. Rest of the settings Body 3 / Bottom 4.5 / Edge 8.5 Signal - Gibson LPC 1996 EMG 81 - Demon TS Boost (no drive / level + tone at 13:00 ) - Amp I am recording using a Mackie 89D dynamic center of the Mojotone BV30V

i remember being a noob teenager back in the 90s sometime going to the big guitar store around here with my buddy, he was playing one of these and it was the first time i remember turning down the mid knob, it was an incredible moment id like to have one of these just for that nostalgic moment

I had an Ultra Plus for a while. It was a pretty good amp.

Exactly.I mean don't expect super clean note separation and rich harmonics but in my book it's a great and cheap hard rock / metal amp

It just took a shit on me one day and I just can’t figure it out. I actually kinda think looking back on it that it could be the foot switch. Hell who knows. Speaking of which I need to get a shipping quote on it for 7704a. He tried to help me on it and I told him he could have it.

I am actually turning into a pv guy. It seems like everyone I try I like. And then they fucking break….

Yeah maybe not the most reliable amps in the world!

My first real tube amp.. I remember being a moron and loving the mids on 1. Current me cringes at what past me's guitar tone was like. Always will have a soft spot for it, even if it blew up and ate a set of tubes 6 months after I got it.

I don't think it is that

JackBootedSteve just seems to break things. Or has the worst of luck.

Nice riffing as usual my dude

These amps were underrated for a while.
They serve a good purpose in the right hands.



I think you did pretty good but the boost is adding some fizzy ballsack hairs to the tone. Otherwise, not bad. Good job.
