All flaming aside, anyone that plugs a Les


Paul into a Peavey is either a total imbicile


You claim no flames, yet toss a name and manage to misspell
i-m-b-e-c-i-l-e.
Allow me...

or someone looking for a fight!


All flames aside, it appears you came to the game rather late in life.
Was a time in the not-so-distant-past where Marshal nd Peavey were it.

Peavey's were cheap amps for people that


couldn't afford a M-A-R-S-H-A-L-L.



Umm,,in your haste, you forgot to nitpick over the missed key in the
next word, as well,
Also, your comment concerning people who "couldn't afford a Marshall" is
bull****, also, There are countless successful bands that used Peavey to
achieve a specific sound, especially when Bass was not a desired effect.




They worked, but the spring reverb sounded


like crap, and the boxes weren't built that well,


either.




I place this along the lines of those who always need to have a good
view of a band when attending a concert and those who bring their
binoculars and base part of their review on the visuals. Serious
audiophiles don't give a damn what something looks like...it's all about
the sound, man, the sound..

Peavey also used low-grade iron in


their output transformers, limiting the


high-frequency response and taking the bite


out of a nice set of pickups. They made great


ashtrays, however.



Many past (and I'm certain, present) successful international touring
acts prove such a statement totally incorrect. Some musicians are
millionaires many times over, yet remain with Peavey. Like manufacturers
of cars, all have their fans. You never saw the "Peavey Page".

No, Dave, I didn't "forget", I just didn't think it was worth the effort. In
fact, I didn't think that you nitpicking -my- spelling was worth the effort, but
then I don't share your neuroses.

Also, your comment concerning people who "couldn't afford a Marshall" is

I suppose there were some people that bought one because they were naive, or as
a practice amp for their kids, or because of a pushy salesman......

also, There are countless successful bands that used Peavey to
achieve a specific sound, especially when Bass was not a desired effect.


For example....?

Where did I say anything relating to aesthetics? I didn't. The boxes were built
with unseasoned wood that often cracked, making the amp sound even worse. And if
the wood didn't crack you had to tighten the screws every other month until the
holes stripped out, which didn't take long because the screws were short and
didn't have much thread. They were built for economy, not quality.

I have no doubt that the Yugo, the Bar-Kays, and Centralia, PA all have their
die-hard fans. What's your point, Dave?
