Peavy 6505

Is this just the new version of the 5150? Are there any improvements on it?

sorry if this is old news..I just saw it in the guitar world ad.

Re: Peavy 6505

same amp...different name...Eddie lost the deal again I guess..

they are still going to make the wolfgang as well...but it won't be called wolfgang anymore

just like what Music Man did with their Axis guitars..

Dumb question, I know, but whats the difference between the 5150 and the 5150 II tone wise?

The orginal is a little more brutal. The 5150-2 has alot better clean. I currently own the 5150-2 and i love the amp!

. . . or more likely, Peavey lost the deal. I seriously doubt anyone sent EVH packing. Far more likely that he's calling the shots.

Re: Peavy 6505

I heard Ed lost it..

this isn't the first time either..

he's seems to be a lost "drunken" puppy lately..and he seems to be more of a liabilty / pain in the ass...more than a money maker at this moment.

until...if until he gets his shit together..

5150 II has separate EQs for the Clean and Distorted channels.

Re: Peavy 6505

That's not tone wise dude.

There's not a huge difference. You'd have to A/B them together to be able to tell I do believe. I've only ever heard the 5150. Most people recommend it over the 5150 II . So I imagine its a little bit better tone wise. According to the general guitar playing public at any rate.

Re: Peavy 6505

The original 5150 had a little more attack and bite to me. The 5150II had the gain, but it felt a little too restricted. Hell I can't really exaplain it better than that, but the original had a more "in your face" sound

[/ QUOTE ]I imagine Peavey'd had enough of Ed when he ruined their NAMM 2003 presentation with his slobbery drunken fiasco appearance. They spent a fortune to be the centerpiece of NAMM and he was an incoherent tool that blew it. At this point in history Peavey has a lot more credibility than Eddie Van Hasbeen.
