Peavey VTM 60 Demo

This is a Gibson 2008 Les Paul Classic with Duncan Phat Cat 90's through a Peavey VTM 60 and a B-52 212 closed back cab loaded with 2 V30's and a BYOC delay. I didn't see many demo's of a VTM on here so I thought I'd record some. Not exactly ground breaking material here but I thought it might help anyone wondering what a VTM might sound like. The VTM, I've heard, is Peavey's take on the JCM 800 but with some mod's and an FX loop. Let me know what you think about the tone. I know my playing is below par and I don't have an original bone in my body, so save those type of comments for ____________.

If you could rate this from 1-10 what would it be?

@mwiguitar62 Hmmmm... When I'm after a higher gain Marshall kind of sound I'd give it a 9. It's a great amp but totally a one trick pony. It does, however, do that one trick very very well.

That sounds fantastic. Just a question, have you played a peavey classic, and if so could you compare the two? This amp seems to have the awesome sustain that I get from the classic so I just wanted to see if this was the same.

@b1gnasty69 I have to say it but I haven't played any of the Peavey Classics- I've been interested in them though. For cleaner sounds I typically use Vox or Vox style amps.

how loud would you say this amp is? my band plays a lot of places without pa systems and i have the loudest drummer in the world. could the 60 watt handle it or should i got the 120?

[forgivenman]

I can't imagine the 60 not being enough volume. It's an unbelievably loud amp.

@forgivenman Sorry, but the VTM is FAR from a one trick pony. You just have to be willing to spend a good bit of time tweaking knobs and dip switches.

[mwiguitar62]

@forgivenman Hm. nice to know :) I ended up getting a Hughes & Kettner Attax 40 watt. The price was way lower than the what the other guy was asking but ,meh, I'll live. I'd love to get the VTM-60 though.

Thanks man- I go back and forth with using my fingers and using a pick. It all depends on how much Jeff Beck I'm listening to!
