I play alot of metal and blues. I was thinking of buying this amp and using the effects loop for my Boss Metal Zone so i can get a nice clean sound and a tight metal sound. Is this a good idea?

Hey candi

This is basically a blues and rock amp (as its name says). It's cool for such music,but for sure won't act as a high gain amp. The clean is really cool, you can also get a sweet crunch and really rocking-out overdrive.When "charged" with additional dist., u can get a punchy overdrive, cool for hard rock etc. I use Boss DS-1 and it's a good "upcharger" for this amp.But don't use the overdrive in the effects loop!It sounds better when you overdrive the input signal (guitar->ovrdrv->amp).

Is this loud enough for gigs and playing aver the drummer?

[boryskow]

yep, i think it is. and has even more power

[charliemount10]

which one is better the fender hot rod deluxe or this?

[boryskow]

this one is more universal, the overdrive is way better than the fender's one. however, fender has this beautiful "fenderly" clean channel. it depends on what you actually need

[rubarb987]

The video starts with him tapping using the worst tone ever, following that is the superb classic 50. Was the intro there to make the Peavey sound even better?

[Relayer1968]

god I hate gear wire, they suck. I hate the goddamn lame intro too...

[91freshman]

I have a fender 410 hotrod deville which keeps breaking on me, Is the Peavey classic 50 410 reliable?

@thejenkins16 you will blow the drummer away":-)

[gitaar079]

@candi8669 ys, i've been doing that for years

i use the boss gt-3

verry good sounding amp!!!

[fyrcrack]

Great piece of Chinese crap!

[kleidaras]

@candi8669 I have a peavey classic 50 and use guitar->metalzone->amp or guitar->any effect->amp

and the channel is so amazing and really clean that you will have a great sound with your effects! the clean channel is as the name sais, clean! so you will get a great sound with the sound of your effects. At least that is for my ears! My favorite amp.

@boryskow

Hell that's all the reason I need

If no one hasn't pointed this out already, The Classic series amp tone stack is passive not parametric as stated in your clip.

[gamergeek3000]

@Relayer1968 hilarious.

[SuperRooster1993]

How does simon neil gets his massive sound out of this??

[0Wallu0]

Wait... you think he's GOOD at tapping? It sounds horrible... His right arm is way off of his left.

The amp is good tho. And it works as a metal amp too. Though i would recommend getting a distortion pedal if someone wanted to use it for that purpose. Check out Pascal Vs review to get a better picture of the amp.
