First,

hahha
young lad. some day you will learn that the 5150 cannot be emulated

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Not a young lad, I'm older and wiser, that is why I play a Vetta !!

Next,

THERE WILL NEVER BE A HEADPHONE PORT ON A 5150!!!

Please post that Vetter-ator stuff on the Line6 thread

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">KidP -- there is no headphone port on Vetta head, and blow me on the Vetter-ntor comment. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

i would go for a vetta head over a 5150 any day.
the crunch channel is very buzzy and the clean channel is terrible on the 5150.
peavey should make an amp with the clean channel of the classic 30 and the distortion channel of the xxx.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">that is bassically, exactly what the JSX (Satriani) head is based on.

Re: 5150 Lovers Thread

i heard about the jsx but haven't read any reviews on it yet.
i saw one in guitar player magazine, but you know how those reviews are [img]graemlins/eyes.gif[/img]
i wish they would just come out and say "this certain product sucks"... [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

anyways, regarding this comment:

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">who cares what you are plugged into as long as it sounds good. i see alot of players plug their guitars into a pod or gt6 and direct into a board and sound great.

Re: 5150 Lovers Thread

Here's mine. I had it posted for sale a while ago, but I'm half glad it didn't go. I could use the money, but it is such an awesome amp. I would probably be sad to see it go.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Heaven forbid that you can change the sound of your amp !!! Good thing those tubes are welded in so they can be changed, the knobs are glued in place and chassis is locked shut so no mods can be done to it, oh yea, throw away the channel switch too.

I would much rather carry around a 5150 for dirty, Fender for clean, and a nice old boogie for crunch. What dumb ass would buy a Vetta and have those sounds at his fingertips. I'm sure the drunks at bars I play would be up in arms if I showed up with a fancy computer amp.

Re: 5150 Lovers Thread

I gave the 5150 a chance, I really did...the old head, new head and the combo....but I couldn't like it no matter what. I can't wait to get a Vetta.

Re: 5150 Lovers Thread

i gotta agree with the drip, dollar for dollar, the 5150 is pretty damn good. you can get a myriad of crunchy sounds on it, but the cleans kindof suck.
