| Killer Vintage-Style Tube Amp |
| Quality |
| Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? |
| Feels and looks solid and is pretty heavy for a one-speaker amp. The newer edition has a cage to protect the tubes, and a rubber strip to isolate the tubes and reduce the likelihood of tube rattle. I have not heard any rattling with mine. |
| Reliability |
| How has it stood up over time? |
| Only had this a couple of weeks but have given it a couple of good workouts. Roadworthy for sure and solid. I can't imagine any reason for it to have any problems. Peavey has a good reputation for reliability and this amp seems to live up to that. |
| Overall |
| Your general opinion of this product. |
| This is a great amp, especially for the money. Love the 15-incher in it. Too many guitar slingers overlook amps with a 15-inch speaker. There are only a few out there, so the pickings are slim. I love the tank-type reverb and tremolo. I wish Peavey included an amp cover (I had to order one from a third party amp cover maker, 'cause Peavey just doesn't make them, at least for this amp). Sweet, classic tone and a huge sound. It's a solid, and loud 30-watter. |

| How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? |

| Delta Blues: All 30 watts of pure tube tone |
| Quality |
| Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? |
| Peavey is well known for being of outstanding quality and dependability. If this amp had the name Fender or Marshall on the front of it, you'd be paying twice the price. Pros in this business know that to be a fact. Feel good knowing that this amp is still made in the USA! In 30 years, I've only had to use Peavey's Customer Service to check on a serial number
for a date of birth however I've heard that those folks in Meridian, Mississippi give excellent CS. |
| Reliability |
| How has it stood up over time? |
| I've use Peavey amps for full-time work since the mid 1970's. This includes having amps ride in the back of equipment trucks in every kind of temperature extremes and weather conditions.
Peavey is one of the only brands I would trust to handle the challenge of steady road work. Nobody I know likes being stuck in the middle of the Midwest or Canada with an amp they can't rely on! I have NEVER had any problems with a Peavey amp letting me down. |
| Overall |
| Your general opinion of this product. |
| I've had my Delta Blues for over a year and it's a pleasure to play through. This amp is perfect for Blues, Classic Rock, Country and Jazz. When it's sitting up on a stage it gives off the same vibe of a fine vintage Fender tweed. If you show up to an audition with your Delta Blues, you'll get bonus points even before you start playing. |
