Sounds great yall!! But all I can think about now is how I don't have a beer holder for my mic stand haha 😆 love the performance, and I'll definitely be Subscribing!! Cheers!! 🍻

Poor man's Music Man. Killer pedal platform. Probably the most underrated amp tremolo in the business.

great cover guys !!

❣️💜❣️💜❣️💜❣️

Great job Chris!

that's a cool breeze cover of I've just seen a face - great harmonies! like 1!

Awesome playing and singing! thank you for uploading and sharing this cover 😊

Awesome, great sounding amp.

This rocks

Very cool, lots of potential. It is a pity that this is a poor recording.

Cool. Great song.

Hey guys. This came out really nice. You guys sound great together. Your take on this to sounds like it has a good kick of "southern rock" mixed in. It works well. Fun to watch...great to hear...👍from me.

Big Dave!

breeze3003 great live cover of losing my religion!

I got a 75', sounds great- Anyone experiment w speaker swaps ?

I'm 57. Bought one of the from my buddy in 1981. It seemed old even then. The last time I tried to turn it on, it made a puff of smoke and quit. That was probably 15 years ago. On a lark, I replaced the tubes and the blown fuse, turned it on about ten minutes ago and the thing sounds like a million bucks!!! With two 12" speakers, it's a little larger than I'd like to lug to band practice, but that sound... Now I gotta look up what I can get for it... Decisions decisions

I just got this amp from my uncle. Although. Mine doesn't have 1 2 1 2, underneath the input jacks. From left to right under each input jack in the from it reads, " bright, series, parallel, normal." One volume for normal and one volume for bright. No gain knob. But there is real spring in there for reverb and has a tremelo built in. Also it has such bad connections or something so it doesn't work at all rn. Saving money to put it in the shop so I can have a working amp.

Looks brand new.

Not a class A. It's class AB

I want one!

Just got a 71 Vintage Classic 4/10 that’s the stuff! Tube power amp And SS preamp action. The speakers and guts are in good shape, but the tweed has been bar room smoked. Thanks for the video! I really like the old Peavey’s! Rock solid machines that sound great!

I had a Peavey Deuce with BW speakers about 25 years ago, bought it at a local music store used for $125.00. I sold it and have kicked myself ever since, that thing was crushing loud, switch on the phase...oh yea.

i think you mean class ab

horrible distortion. but this is SS into a tube power section. I never got that. tube preamp into SS power section makes more sense for a hybrid to me.

Raging distortion? No. Buzzy distortion? Why, yes!

Your guitar is to low amplitude....

The amp in this picture has only 1 12" speaker..

I had a 78 that was SS head and came with a 1by15 cabinet. 2 channels and a blend button. It rocked with an ibanez l.p. from 77!!!

I grew up with amp. I was born in '79, and my dad sold, traded, and pawned gear regularly. This is the one amp that stuck around.

Got a very Mark Farner sound when you use this amps distortion. I think it best to simply just use the clean channel and add an OutSide distortion pedal like Boss DS100 or TubeScreamer

I did not know a guitar amplifier could have its condensers replaced

I bought one of these in the late 70's. I was playing in a southern rock band, and you had to have a Peavey to do it right. Started doing the acoustic, singer/songwriter thing in the nineties and traded it for a small PA. Dumbest move I ever made, gear-wise. I finally bought a replacement a couple of years ago, a 1981 model. I became friends with the guy I bought it from, now he's wishing he had never sold it, lol. I promised I would sell it back to him if I found something that I liked better. He looked at my wife and other friends and said, "I'm never getting it back, am I?"

Excellent!

cool, i can get one for 300 bucks, think its worth it? i dont think ill do it lol! depends how it takes pedals! the speakers in it look good, its the aluminum dome ones, reminds me of the roland jazz chorus and those take pedals amazingly! Can you get it to where you are playing cleans but jus so they break up when you strum hard? how responsive is it?

how many tubes are in this thing?

I've got one of these bought in 1981 mine mid 70s not sure of year 4x 10s still sounds great took to peavey factory once ( not that far to go for me at that time) had them go thru they replaced couple small things at the time but hardly nothing wrong with it love it wouldn't part with it I was in band in 81 it did it's job well and still does today for me an old man now

Played one of these once. Fucking loved it.

hook it up to a boss me 50 pedal and turn on overdrive 2 switch and you will will hear massive power like a 5150 amp

I have one..sounds great...if you want it to have that in your face punch and fullness like a Fender amp of similar watts and 2 12s ...turn up the PRESENCE knob...

I have a 72. It's sweet as hell. It lives on top of a xxx 412 cab. That plain clean is killer, as is the bright channel with any decent dirty pedal. Buy good pedals, use the clean channel, play decent guitars. These amps can scream, and sound sweet doing it. No joke I've ran my 72 hard. It just keeps going.

Solid performance.That was great.This went to my favorites and had to subscribe.Thanks for posting.Peace.

Been playing guitar for over 40 years. Mom was a classical pianist and taught me piano till the age of 14. I then grasped the perception that girls liked guitarist, yes I did - been playing guitar ever since (Stones, Zep, blues, classic rock era, etc.). Done studio and Honkytonks in several states. In my recordings and live works, I have "ALWAYS" used Marshall amps. And in the last 13 years, the TSL100/122 "HAS" been my amp of choice. This amp, for some reason, seems to get a bad rap, but this amp using Mullard tubes dialed down 12 percent is perfection. Looking back now, the few Peavey Classics that I owned, and used occasionally in the late 70's/80;s seem to be calling - gonna revisit... These days there are many British boutique amps out there, but if u are looking for a sound other than the (Marshall) sound - for the price, I don't think there's anything out there better than the Peavey. With eyes covered, I challenge anyone to determine the difference in this amp and other amps designed to deliver the "American Sound". Just an old guitarist's opinion who usually doesn't do this sort of thing..

Excellent! You nailed it!

Boy who ever said its all in the volume knob of a guitar and called the volume pot a gain control is way off no offense. Im a luthier. The volume pot (if its a single coil) is a 250k variable resistor. It CUTS the signal but has nothing to do with the gain on an amp. If its a humbucker its a 500k ohm variable resistor. Either A or B type. The tone control has a ton to do with the tone on a guitar. When you roll off the volume often you are cutting some mids lows and a lot of treble. Matter of fact a lot of guys (including me) make a volume pot kit. A resistor and a 102 cap which puts the highs back in when you roll off volume. But you tell a person to do that they will lose a ton of tone. The word distortion means a lot. Theres good and bad distortion. Good tube distortion sounds creamy and chunky. Bad distortion which comes often from a bad solid state rectifier which is found now a days even in modern full tube amos, if thats bad you will get a bad sounding distortion . If the person thats playing doesn't know the difference he probably hasn't been playing long. Sorry, I dont mean to but in and be a know it all, but this is what I do. So in this case, (I hate saying I know it all) But In know a hell of a lot!. This fellow has a 74 Peavey VT series good chance hes got a few bad transistors. Cheers.
