wickerman667 from PA
Quality:
VERY good, other than not liking the tone of the 6505 head i got i'm very pleased with peavey
Sound:
tone on this amp is amazing, even with all the EQ flat on 5 it still sounds amazing
Reliability:
just got the stack but my combo was a year and a half old and not one problem, wish i could say the same about my 2 bugera heads that went down within 1 month of each other
Overall:
lets just say the valvekig combo was my first amp then i got a 6505 head to replace it and i sent it back for this half stack, the 6505 has more gain, and i have EMG's in my guitar i couldn't turn the gain past 6 or it woud get muddy and sound like complete garbage, my valveking gain is on 10 with the boost switch in and a MXR Wylde overdrive with the gain all the way down pushing it, the tone is better for one and it has a LOT less background hum and hiss than the 6505, even with my Boss NS2 about maxed the 6505 was noisy as heck when i wasnt playing, now with the valveking the NS2 is only a little over half and it's dead silent with the gain maxed and an overdrive in front
Playability and Feel:
sturdy
Finish:
covering and paint is plain but good
Action:
everything is pretty nice looking and works flawlessly
