PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
- The reissued Peavey 6505 II Head: A legend returns Peaveys 6505 II Head is a legendary amplifier that helped create an entire genre of music and to mark its 30th anniversary Peavey is proud to launch the reissued 6505 II Head. The reissue is true to form cosmetically and sonically with a top-secret output transformer made in an undisclosed location to mimic the magical crushing tone of the original series. Improved consistency and tone After countless hours of A/B comparisons conversations with scores of users and artists and deep dives into the amplifier at a component level Peavey discovered some items had drifted resulting in a midrange that varied from amp to amp. In response they developed a top-secret output transformer which has improved consistency and tone. The reissued 6505 II Head includes six 12AX7 preamp tubes and four 6L6GC power amp tubes and has separate equaliser and power amp controls for each channel. Effortless footswitch sound shaping Elevate your guitar sound with the Crunch and Bright switches on the Rhythm channel. The Crunch switch delivers a gritty aggressive tone perfect for heavy metal and hard rock while the Bright switch adds clarity and definition to your sound. With footswitch control you can easily toggle these features on and off during your performance giving you complete control over your tone. Discover the iconic sound of heavy metal and hard rock with the Peavey 6505 MKII 120W Amp Head and its powerful tone control features. Channel-specific equalisers and controls The Peavey 6505 MKII 120W Amp Head gives you complete control over your sound with separate equaliser sections for each channel. This allows you to fine-tune your tone to match your playing style and preferences whether youre playing clean or adding distortion and overdrive. But thats not all - the amp head also features separate power amp controls (Resonance and Presence) for each channel giving you even more control over your sound. These controls let you adjust the low-end and high-end frequencies to create a more balanced and defined sound that cuts through the mix. And with separate preamp controls (Pre and Post Gain) for each channel you can adjust the levels of distortion and overdrive to suit your playing style and the requirements of your performance.
