My bad if this question is dumb or has already been answered hundreds of times.
I have a 6505+ but have been thinking about getting an ENGL head as well as eventually buying an Axe-FX.
With all the buzz surrounding the Axe-FX, is the Engl an unnecessary buy considering the 6505+'s power...
Hey guys, i am currently in the market for a high gain amplifier to play all forms of extreme metal (Djent, Death, deathcore, metalcore, ect) and i am pretty overwhelmed from looking at gear reviews on youtube (lol tone king) and on these forums. the high end of my budget would get me an engl...
My power cord to the ol' 6505+ 112 combo (converted to a head :hbang:) went missing at a gig last weekend, and I just got around to replacing it for the next upcoming gig. Trouble is, the cord seems like it's rated to run at 125v, but the 6505+ says it needs 150v. Would I break something in...
I am about to purchase a 6505+ ( for a very low price )but the only problem with this amp is the clean channel does not work. It will only put out a very soft sound even when the post and pre gains are cranked, i can hear the sound of the guitar strings over the amp itself. Any idea on what this...
I'l start with my budget, I have around £450 to spend and I wan't to buy new gear
Basically I wan't an amp that can cover from Machine Head to Van Halen, having a crappy clean channel doesn't bother me, I just need something with enough tightness and clarity to cover all my bases

So I recently purchased an isp pro rack g (stereo) and I've found that if it sits on top of my head (6505+) I get quite an audible hum when I'm not playing, its not a ground loop, its more along the lines of emf interference, currently its not in a rack unit, although it will be within a week or...
I have a 6505+ and I my friend suggested that I run my NS-2 and Ts9dx through the Fx loop. I tried setting it up myself and I either got no noise coming from the head or I got a ton of feedback.
So how should I set up my pedals through the loop?
Also, is it stupid to run a tuner through...
:scratch: Right.. so, I read through the tube-thread, nice stuff but nothing really covered this stuff.

Gear:

I've had my Peavey 6505+ running through an orange cab for a while now and I absolutely love it. In my last band my orange 2x12 held its own against our other guitarists 4x12 with ease.
I had to leave that band when I went to college, and in my current band I am the only guitarist. I've been...
Seems like I am seeing more and more threads about people's gear or guitars being stolen. Now its my turn...
The nights before I have band practice I load my head, cab, and all my pedals and wires and stuff into my car so that I don't have to do it early in the morning before school. Normally I...
Hi I hope I'm not asking something that has already been asked before, although the search function didn't seem to narrow my question down completely - So... I'll start by apologizing for 'using' your forum even though I do not own a 7-string guitar, I'd love to though.
First of all I'm a...
So I got myself a 6505+ 112 combo which I'm planning on modding. I've taken a look at the stuff FJA does, and I'm very interested in the noise reduction mod he installs.
Does anybody know if there's a way I could do this myself? I'm planning on installing a new transformer and choke myself...
Recording from the speaker out allows you to get the sound of the power section. That includes color, power amp gain and the sound of the resonance and presence controls.
I had read where some people were doing this, but I couldn't figure out what I needed. I was having trouble finding info...
So I might be getting a 6505+ combo (idk if its the 2x12 or 112), but don't know if I should wait and get the head version instead.
I know the combo has 2 less power tubes and less wattage, but want to know what people think.
Is there a difference?
I want to run the combo into my Basson B412...
I'm getting a 5150 II on friday.
So I want to know what are some good tubes for a certain metal tone?
I think there are Groove power tubes already in it.
I don't know what are in the preamp (I believe something Fender)
I have a Basson B412 cab for great low end and mids.
Boss 10...

Hi Guys,
Just wanted to put this out there - I bought a 6505+ 112 combo recently.. Everything was going fine and I was very happy with the amp, BUT, not long after (Roughly a week) I discovered a strange noise that was only noticable while playing certain notes - sort of hard to explain but...
