Peavey 6505 Series 1992 Original Reissue 120W Amplifier Head w/ Footswitch
Product Information
After countless hours of A/B comparisons, conversations with scores of users and artists, and deep dives into the amplifier at a component level, we discovered some items had drifted. In particular, one of the most important items: the output transformer. The changes over the years resulted in a mid-range that varied from amp to amp, so the purists here at Peavey decided to search for a solution. That led us to develop a top-secret output transformer, made in an undisclosed location to mimic the magical crushing tone of the original series.
The Peavey 6505 1992 Original is the result of extensive research and development to produce the ultimate rock ‘n’ roll guitar amp, featuring super rock crunch, harmonic-rich sustain, and screaming metal drive like you’ve never heard from another amp. The undisputed go-to guitar amplifier for scores of rock, hardcore and metal bands for its raw tone, relentless power and road-proven reliability.
The 6505 features five 12AX7 preamp tubes and four 6L6GC power amp tubes with presence and resonance controls and three-band EQ for taming its notorious tone. These features combined with its classic ultra-high gain preamp capabilities and monstrous 120W power section, result in an amp with awesome stage presence and enough volume for any gig.
For maximum flexibility, a foot-switchable effects loop, preamp output and bright/crunch voicing switches (rhythm channel) have also been included. Because of its singular design and distinguished tone, the 6505 is in a category all its own,
