Peavey 6505+


I just recently added a Peavey 6505+ to my gear family and i'm
very pleased with it. It's got a lot of balls just like a Dual Rec, but
the thing that i notice is that it has a lot more clarity right
off the bat, even without some sort of compressor or sonic
maximizer.

The 6505 is a reissue of the immensely popular 5150 head designed
in conjunction with guitar legend Eddie Vanhalen. It's really a go to
amp for hardcore or Metal. It's a one trick pony that has a precise,
focused low end and a harsh, one of a kind dirty sound.

Don't let the affordability fool you, this amp is used by hundreds of
popular bands around the world such as:

3 Doors Down, Ted Nugent, Atreyu, Steve Morse, In Flames,
Arch Enemy, Visqueen, God Forbid, HIMSA, Darkest Hour,
Sworn Enemy, Unearth, August Burns Red, Trivium, For The Fallen
Dreams.

I think i'll keep this in my rig for a while. Stay posted, more reviews on
the way.
