Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? TOP NOTCH Reliability How has it stood up over time? I've owned Vypyrs for a couple of years now,ZERO ISSUES,SAME AS THE OLD PEAVEYS! Overall Your general opinion of this product. To SHAWN From PA,...NO BOTTOM END,THIN SOUNDING?,UM,Not for Nothing,BUT,DOES YOUR HEARING AID NEED NEW BATTERIES?! THIS AMP,As a Matter of FACT ALL the VYPYR AMPS-I Own 3,a 30 watt,75 watt,and a 100 watt,HAVE BOTTOM END AND WARM THICK TONE FOR DAYS!! Gotta say Shawn,maybe you just aren't "TWEAKING the Right Knobs brother,Read the instructions,you'll see the EQW Acts DIFFERENTLY from Amp Model To AMP MODEL,Give her another try and give it another review that gives the CORRECT INFO!THESE AMPS KICK A--,I would NOT BUY ANY OTHER DIGITAL MODELER OUT THERE,SORRY LINE 6,YOU HAVE BEEN BESTED,..AGAIN,By Another Company : ) I'm VERY HAPPY With My VYPYRS,The 75 and 100 watt have more "TWEAKAGE POSSIBILITIES",Try it,YOU WON'T GO BACK TO BEING A TUBE SNOB! The Vypyr Does offer the TUBE Series,BUT,it's just the POWER SECTION,So,you aren't CHEATING If you are a S.S. /Digital Fan,lol! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky?

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? seems well made! Reliability How has it stood up over time? just got it? Overall Your general opinion of this product. the is a well built amp and has a lot of cool effects and features, it has some pretty good guitar sounds however i have not been able to get any kind of low frequency out of it? i don't know if i got a bad one or if that is just the way it is? even with the bass knob maxed it gives a wimpy tone. and i have an esp h1000 with seymor duncans so i know it isn't the pickups? the distortion tones them self are pretty good though! just don't plan on playing metallic or disturbed with this cuz it won't sound good. it has an 80's metal tone which isn't so bad i guess? if you plan on miking the amp for live sound or recording you may be able to pull it off by boosting bass frequencies on the mixer? the bottom line is it sounds better than the carvin sx200 it replaced, but it really needs some bass response! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? it will take a while to figure out all of these controls! Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? real bright! real thin sounding! no bass! Finish How did the stain or paint job look? good! it looks sharp! and seems to made well! Action How was the action out of the box? n/a

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Seem to be made pretty hefty and will stand up to some heavy use. Reliability How has it stood up over time? It's new....so I don't really know. It will only be used in the practice room. Overall Your general opinion of this product. I am more than impressed with the unit. Everything about it and the price...I almost feel quilty that I got the better end of the deal...I did. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Controls are a little difficult to understand...blame that on old timers disease though. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Tone is the pretty good and even better. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? For the money....pretty good. Action How was the action out of the box? Still learning the dials and buttons, but I sure like what I see and hear.
WoW!!!!!!!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Every Peavey I have owned has been really good. Reliability How has it stood up over time? I have had it 3 weeks but most Peavey stuff is good. It is very light so you don't break your back carrying it. Overall Your general opinion of this product. For the price you can't beat it. It has a lot of tonal variations and more than enough effects to suit your needs. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Finish How did the stain or paint job look?

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Like I said, haven't had it long but like it so far. AMS gave me a great price match so thanks for that! Reliability How has it stood up over time? I haven't had it long, but it seems durable. Overall Your general opinion of this product. I haven't used it too much yet, but from what I played so far, I love it. Lots of options to choose from for different sounds. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The finish is good. There are little spaces on the side of the amp (the plastic part by the input jack and the power switch) and you can see through those spaces. Others had concerns over that. Other than that, looks great. Action How was the action out of the box? Played well right out of the box. Didn't update it yet. It works fine for now so I'm not going to mess with it.
Amazingly does it all...

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Get the Sempera 1 or Sempera 2 to fully enhence the experience and enable the full capablilities of the amp... like the looper, etc... Reliability How has it stood up over time? so far so good... it came out in 2008 and there is not much said aout poor reliability, so that's a good thing. On the 75, 100, 60, and 120 they offer a USB connection for software updates form you computer. very cool... Overall Your general opinion of this product. I've been playing for 35+ years and have not seen such an amp like the Vypyr series. I have the 75... and trust me on this... it kicks major league. All my friends that have played guitar up and down the west coast back in the 60's cannot believe what this thing all offers. Their exact words are... Man, I gotta get one of these. And then they're blown away on how little it costs. I personally, set the amp to start in the Fender twin/clean sound with a bit of reverb and a touch of delay. there's nothing like that Fender twin sound. So, that's the sound that wecomes me every time I play that "first" CHORD from this amp... Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? very well built. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Everything under the sun... edit it and save the sound. Anything and everything... you'll love it... Finish How did the stain or paint job look? very stylish... some don't like the "fang" look... it's ok for me. Action How was the action out of the box? Excellent... very little learning curve. Personally, I like the "light show"... you can disable it if you want.
i love it

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Yes. Three weeks old? Reliability How has it stood up over time? Only had it a couple of weeks Overall Your general opinion of this product. Blew me away. Bought this for my son for Christmas. So I had to give it a dry run to make sure it worked ok.....:) I put the vol on 4 and I'm talking window shakin, floor vibratin, ear bleedin, earth moving sound. I swear you could get a woman to stand in front of this thing, set the vol on 10 (it goes to 13) and with one swipe of the strings, she'd be naked.
