All flaming aside, anyone that plugs a Les Paul into a Peavey is either a total imbicile You claim no flames, yet toss a name and manage to misspell i-m-b-e-c-i-l-e. Allow me... or someone looking for a fight! All flames aside, it appears you came to the game rather late in life. Was a time in the not-so-distant-past where Marshal nd Peavey were it. _ |

Peavey also used low-grade iron in their output transformers, limiting the high-frequency response and taking the bite out of a nice set of pickups. They made great ashtrays, however. -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |

Umm,,in your haste, you forgot to nitpick over the missed key in the next word, as well, Also, your comment concerning people who "couldn't afford a Marshall" is bull****, also, There are countless successful bands that used Peavey to achieve a specific sound, especially when Bass was not a desired effect. They worked, but the spring reverb sounded like crap, and the boxes weren't built that well, either. I place this along the lines of those who always need to have a good view of a band when attending a concert and those who bring their binoculars and base part of their review on the visuals. Serious audiophiles don't give a damn what something looks like...it's all about the sound, man, the sound.. Peavey also used low-grade iron in their output transformers, limiting the high-frequency response and taking the bite out of a nice set of pickups. They made great ashtrays, however. Many past (and I'm certain, present) successful international touring acts prove such a statement totally incorrect. Some musicians are millionaires many times over, yet remain with Peavey. Like manufacturers of cars, all have their fans. You never saw the "Peavey Page". -----=3D Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =3D----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----=3D=3D |

I have a Marshall JCM 2000 Dual Super Lead but the Fender just blows it away. Use a little Marshall G10 MKII for playing in the house. Digitech GFX 1 Twin Tube for effects. Anyone got a Gibson SG (with bound neck) they'd like to part with?? Train |

Umm,,in your haste, you forgot to nitpick over the missed key in the next word, as well, No, Dave, I didn't "forget", I just didn't think it was worth the effort. In fact, I didn't think that you nitpicking -my- spelling was worth the effort, but then I don't share your neuroses. Also, your comment concerning people who "couldn't afford a Marshall" is bull****, I suppose there were some people that bought one because they were naive, or as a practice amp for their kids, or because of a pushy salesman...... also, There are countless successful bands that used Peavey to achieve a specific sound, especially when Bass was not a desired effect. For example....? They worked, but the spring reverb sounded like crap, and the boxes weren't built that well, either. I place this along the lines of those who always need to have a good view of a band when attending a concert and those who bring their binoculars and base part of their review on the visuals. Serious audiophiles don't give a damn what something looks like...it's all about the sound, man, the sound.. Where did I say anything relating to aesthetics? I didn't. The boxes were built with unseasoned wood that often cracked, making the amp sound even worse. And if the wood didn't crack you had to tighten the screws every other month until the holes stripped out, which didn't take long because the screws were short and didn't have much thread. They were built for economy, not quality. Peavey also used low-grade iron in their output transformers, limiting the high-frequency response and taking the bite out of a nice set of pickups.

Some musicians are millionaires many times over, yet remain with Peavey. For example.....? Like manufacturers of cars, all have their fans. You never saw the "Peavey Page". I have no doubt that the Yugo, the Bar-Kays, and Centralia, PA all have their die-hard fans. What's your point, Dave? -----= Posted via Newsfeeds.Com, Uncensored Usenet News =----- http://www.newsfeeds.com - The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! -----== Over 100,000 Newsgroups - 19 Different Servers! =----- |

All "spring reverbs" sounded like crap. BTW: I've used a Peavey mixer and it worked fine. And back in the day, most US groups had no high-end unless they had big contracts with the recording companies. Wouldn't know about the "great ashtrays" part since I don't smoke. |
