The only amp in the peavey range worth looking at is the JSX.

It's quite an all rounder and the cleans sound pretty good - But I'd still say the rest of the amps at the same price range are better.

But if it has to be Peavey - Then go for the JSX.


My favorite is the Classic 50, but the JSX is supposed to have that as the clean channel, so I say JSX too.
Real men turn their volume to 11!

I gigged a 100w Peavey Deuce combo troughout the 90's, it had 6L6GC tubes like the Valveking head. Allthough i cant speak for the preamp which was different on mine, the poweramp was pretty similar. It has huge headroom and Mesa-esque cleans, like peter said it has a very nice depth to it, filling up a hall very nicely, and the best part to me (then) wat that it took effects unusually well for a tube amp. I had it till it fell apart........

EDIT: the JSX seems to take 6L6GS tubes instead of the EL34's, could be interesting
