    Which one to get rid of? Peavey or Peavey?

    Hello all, I'm hoping to get some opinions or thoughts to help me decide which of these 2 amps to be rid of. Peavey 6505+ or Peavey JSX (I think I already know the obvious answer for most people but hear me out) The 6505+ is my 4th iteration of this amp that I've owned. I don't really get...

    Line 6 helix question

    Hiya, Thinking about buying a Line 6 helix (the floor version) because I'm tired of tap dancing when playing live. Also I've just recorded a new record with my band and we made some sounds in the studio that would be very hard for me to recreate with the pedals and setup I currently have. Now...

    EVH 5150 III vs 6505+ video, cleans are different... but high gain?

    I managed to get my buddy's 6505+ to compare it to my 5150 III. Mic position is the same, it's a Mesa oversized cab with V30's and used a shure SM57. I just copied the eq settings and it actually comes really close high gain wise. I think with some more tweaking they can sound almost identical...

    Totally new to interfaces and digital gear, what are my rig options from here?

    So I've just made my first ever foray into the digital realm with a purchase of a Zoom UAC-2. The last 6 months of total working from home has given me plenty of time to evaluate my life choices and has got me back into guitar playing after several years off. And rather than noodling around, I...

    Question from a new 6505+ owner

    Hey guys, First post!!:wavey: So, I recently picked up a peavey 6505+ head, it's kind of my first REALLY high gain amp. I've noticed when the gain is up pretty high, theres an interesting"static" type of sound i can hear when I'm not playing. It's not like any hum i've heard, kind of...

    Can the 6505+ be EQ'd to sound the same as the 6505?

    can the 6505+ be EQ'd to sound the same as the 6505? who has done this? and were you successfu? how different do the two amps REALLY sound?. i want to buy the 6505 due to its apparently more aggressive lowmids sound but have recently found out that the + version has a 3rd button on the foot...

    Can i use the 3 button foot switch with original 6505?

    the original 6505 comes with a 2 button foot switch that controls rhythm and lead channels and the 6505+ comes with the 3 button foot switch that controls the 2 channels while the 3rd button turns the fx loop on and off right? can i use the 3 button foot switch with original 6505?

    6505 or 6505+ for 8string ?

    im getting one of these heads soon. im leaning more towards the 6505 due to it having more lower mids making it thicker, "meatier". ive read up as much as i can about the two and often come across someone saying that the 6505 is too "woofy/boomy" in the low end. is .... gonna get all muddy in...

    Peavey 6505+ Rhythm vs Lead Channel

    Just a quick comparison. Some people prefer the 6505's rhythm channel with crunch on over the lead channel. Here both channels are boosted with my ts-9. Excuse me butchering Periphery a bunch hahaha. Recorded with my iPhone so sorry if the audio isn't too good.

    Critique my mix please?

    https://soundcloud.com/nick-sperlein/defend-defend-featuring-shehzi I don't have any studio monitors so my mixing probably isn't the best lol, but any pointers, especially on mixing vocals would be a huge help to me. Gear used: M-Audio fast track, Gibson Les Paul standard (Seymour Duncan...

    Skipping out in owning a tube amp?

    I feel it's time soon for me to upgrade the current gear I have. I currently own a Line 6 Spider IV and while I feel tones I get from it are satisfactory I feel like I could be getting a better sound. I've contemplated getting the Peavey 6505+ 112 combo because it seemed like a very solid amp...

    Peavey Classic 50 and 6505+ Blended

    So I was bored and decided to experiment with blending amps. The classic 50 is a tweed amp and by no means metal, but with a tubescreamer anything is possible lol. I eq'd the low end out of the Classic 50 and kept the high end, and kept the low end of the 6505 and eq'd out the high end. The 6505...

    Hughes & Kettner Coreblade 100W Head

    My fellow musicians, I've been looking for pro/semi-pro gear and I've come across this amp. The H&K Coreblade. It seems to have some really sweet features that I could definitely implement in my band, as we are somewhat versatile, but I'm on the fence because I was thinking of the Peavey...

    RP500 problem.

    It seems I can't get a good tone or overall quality from the RP through my 6505+'s dirty channel. The clean channel sounds near great, but when I switch to the dirty channel my tone sounds like a cat scratching a chalkboard and has no sustain, the reverb sounds awful, effects like chorus are non...
