Members lostandfoundpdx Posted January 5, 2007 Members Share Posted January 5, 2007 i had a tweed peavey classic 50 2x12 and it benefitted GREATLY from new tubes and speakers. i put weber bluedogs in there and JJ tubes, awesome. the drive channel is for sure one of the more usable drive channels on a peavey. i did sell it because of the overall build quality though. i'd get the bassman.

Members 9-Pin-Phoenix Posted January 5, 2007 Members Share Posted January 5, 2007 Originally posted by theweight The Bassman has a slight hum when turned up to loud volumes, which is partially why I got it for $300 (great price). I have a friend who's a tech, and he repairs all my stuff for free when I can't do it myself, so I'm not too worried about it. I don't mind buying new tubes, or a cap or something if it comes down to it. If you have a tech friend who will fix it for free, and a cab, this is a no brainer. Get the Bassman. When he fixes it up, you should be able to sell it for a nice profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Electric Catfish Posted January 7, 2007 Members Share Posted January 7, 2007 Originally posted by Minibucker Another vote for the Bassman... I had one many years ago and wish I had it back!mine does have the bass channel modded to be a tweed/marshall preamp, so I use the normal (AA864) for cleans, and the modded bass channel for o.d. Interesting.. who does that? ^ Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
