Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? I'm expecting the 6505 to be the same beast of an amp as it's predecessor, the 5150. These amps simply hold up for a long time with very little care take, and if you really take care of your equipment like I do, this thing is gonna last even longer. Not to mention the factory warranty from Peavey is 5years of coverage and then AMS throws in an extra year of coverage for free! Reliability How has it stood up over time? I've had this head for a couple of months and it's held up perfectly. I also have a 5150 that I've owned for about 7 or 8 years now, which is still in great condition with only taking basic care and maintenance through the years and I expect the 6505 to be the very same tank. General Your general opinion of this product. I've read a lot of reviews on this amp. So, here's mine. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? I like the available controls for the 6505. The "Presence" and "Resonance" knobs add so much dimension to the sound aside from just the 3 band EQ. The Post and Pre Gain knobs also give a lot of play in the amount of distortion which is nice, because it gives a lot of diversity control. I can dial anything from a smooth wailing blues tone to a completely crushing metal tone even before using any pedals. I do wish that it had separate EQ's for each channel, but then again I didn't think it was too important which is why I didn't go for the 6505+. I've heard a lot about this amp being very noisy, which I have sort of mixed emotions on. The rig IS loud and produces quite a bit of hiss, but I don't have any trouble with feedback even at Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? I've heard a lot of harsh comments about the clean channel on this amp that I don't think are too fair. I've also heard a lot of people try to justify it by simply saying that they bought it for the lead channel metal brutality or whatever, which I think is kind of a cop-out. My opinion on this is that if you're enough of a tone snob like I am you're probably gonna want a couple pedals like EQ and a TS9 in the loop to give you the extra headroom. I don't think there's an amp out there with every feature for every application out there straight out of the box, but there are some that will get you very close. Also to the ones complaining about the cleans lacking...if you're playing with EMG's, that's probably why and make sure that you're playing with a nice cabinet, a low end cab can really suck the life out of a nice guitar head. This amp pairs extremely well with Mesa's and most cabs with legitimate V30's. Not the new ones. And avoid buying the matching cab. Not the best. Probably the Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The tolex covering, knobs, grill, and panel are in perfect condition. This amp is extremely clean looking in my opinion. Action How was the action out of the box? Since a guitar head doesn't really have "action". I'm gonna talk about the delivery process here. I wound up receiving 2 heads throughout the process, because the first one was damaged somehow. So this was a bit irritating, but AMS made taking care of that really easy. I emailed them and they got right back to me, telling me exactly what I needed to do and they sent a new one out on 2day ground for free as soon as the damaged one was scanned at the UPS drop off and when I got the new one it was absolutely perfect. I assume UPS must have dropped the first. I live in California and it shipped from Jersey, so there's a lot of things that can go wrong in between there.

What a great sounding metal amp! big bass, masive mids, holy sh*t highs!!! Not the best for clean sounds but that's not why I bought this amp anyway. This amp is the metal amp of all!!!
