Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? For now this amp feels and look HIGH quality forget the Marshalls, forget the Fenders, PEAVY beats all of them. Reliability How has it stood up over time? I got it a Month ago and i seems built like a tank i`ve also had a Peavy Bandit for like about 4 years and it still works like new so maybe the ValveKing will last for ever. Overall Your general opinion of this product. This amp is the best you can nearly get any sound...nearly. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Like i said with the HardWire Metal Distortion pedal I CAN'T stop playing. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Nice Bright Tones!!!! Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Has a plain look to it but looks real nice. Action How was the action out of the box? Sound real good but i'm planing to change the speakers to some Eminence Governors.....or maybe NOT because once the VK speakers brake in they sound pretty good..... ADD casters they will help you because the amp is like 45 pounds.
Great tube tone at an affordable price!

Reliability How has it stood up over time? I gave it a 4 here because I played mine for 6 days and a tube blew out and caused a short. But considering all the shipping bumps and such, and the inherent semi-delicacy of vacuum tubes, I was not surprised. Overall Your general opinion of this product. I am very pleased with this amp overall, and would buy another if needed. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? This is a HEAVY amplifier for an old road house bum like me to haul around. I installed a set of Ernie ball pop-out casters on it before I even turned it on. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Tone is so subjective, but you can pull almost anything out of this amp, from sweet Fender-like clean to down and dirty grunge. I found the texture control on the back to be very useful for dialing in a good tube tone. The dirty channel is not as bluesy as I like but I simply added a tube screamer and can get very good sounds from it. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The fit of the tolex could be a little better, but all in all good. Action How was the action out of the box? N/A
