Members feartheunited Posted April 9, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 9, 2011 Did you happen to read all the previous smartass comments? I'm trying to sell my amp I'm not looking. For 40 year old cover band pricks to leave smartass comments therapy no need for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rameumptom Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 I didn't take their comments as smartass, apparently you did? They are only stating that your price is too high in this market. They are stating fact. A cursory review on the interwebs should give you a pretty good idea of what they are going for. Nice amp for sure. I hated mine. Couldn't get rid of it fast enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members feartheunited Posted April 10, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 Just found your local CL post saying you'd take a 5150 + cash. http://charlotte.craigslist.org/msg/2266826402.html You are psycho if you think a 6505 and a 5150 are the same! And yes! If someone offered a blockletter 5150 and some cash i would probably do it. By far the best amp I've ever owned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members feartheunited Posted April 10, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 I know the whole concept of the 5150 series you ass cake. I think alot of people on these forums agree the 5150 and the 6505 don't. Sound alike.. look i put my {censored}ing amp for sale if u want it buy it if u don't that's fine too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dimebag11 Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 Yes, the 5150/6505 are about as identical as two amps can be.....if you think they don't sound alike, then the 6505 you played had something severely wrong with it.

Members illfists Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 I have a blockletter 5150. It has a cosmetic mod (white plate under grill). I'll trade it for this, but the price has to come down some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BryanFTWL Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 Funny how one of my best buds has a 5150II and a Blockletter both. My 6505 sounds basically the same, and any differences there might have been could have been solved by a tube swap.. Personal experience > What you think you know.

Members feartheunited Posted April 10, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 i had a blockletter 5150, best sounding amp ive owned. while it was in the shop i played a 6505. could not get the same tone i had in the 5150 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BryanFTWL Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 Did you play it through your guitar, cab, board/rack, and cables? Did you happen to know what tubes were in both amps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members feartheunited Posted April 10, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 i played my exact setup! as far as i know they both had JJ pres and power tubes, it just seemed like it didnt have enough balls like my 5150 had! i seen parkway drive use the 6505 a few weeks ago in charlotte and their tone was complete crap! you guys are the first ive heard that say the 5150 and the 6505 sound the same!

Members -Juggernaut- Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 They are EXACTLY the same, the ONLY thing they changed were the name plates, same with the Block logos, the only reason they sounded "better" was the tubes they came with from the factory were better than the ones they changed to when they changed to the signature.....

Members creep66 Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 Man i was totally gonna stick up for this guy until he put his foot in his mouth with the whole 5150 thing now im just enjoying the lulz.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members illfists Posted April 10, 2011 Members Share Posted April 10, 2011 I run a 5150 and 6505 through 2 of the same cab (mesa rec).. and its the eq that sets them apart. other than that, I'd say the 5150 is just built with better parts. Thats it. Both get the same job done in the tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members feartheunited Posted April 11, 2011 Author Members Share Posted April 11, 2011 maybe the one i was playing was messed up! thats the only 6505 ive played and it sounded like garbage. ill give it another try at the local guitar center.

Members Inca Roads Posted April 11, 2011 Members Share Posted April 11, 2011 Looks like the 40 year old cover band dudesschooled a snot nosed, punk kid in the worldof amplification! Straight from Peavey's website:http://www.peavey.com/products/instamplifiers/guitaramps/6505/ Named in celebration of Peavey's first 40 years, the 6505 Series is also the relaunch of the 5150 Series, the immensely popular amplifiers Peavey designed with Edward Van Halen. While known as the 5150, these amps became the undisputed go-to guitar amps for scores of rock, hardcore and metal bands due to their raw tone, relentless power and road-proven reliability. The 6505 is still the unquestionable choice for an ever-expanding list of endorsers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
