Peavey Windsor Studio - 299€ - a steal or a lemon?
« on: April 06, 2007, 10:05:19 AM »
What do you guys think, single ended full tube combo with power soak and other great features at 299 EUR, this is agressive pricing, good for us  :twisted:

but will it be any good? What do you know/think about it? Anyone heard it yet?

based on the Valve King I tried, it will probably sound quite decent.  the weak point in budget combos is always the speakers - I'd figure in replacing the speaker with a G12H-30 or V30.

if it sounds anything like the windsor head, it'll be great for the price. as heavier says, speaker (and possibly cab construction) will probably be the weak link... should they bring out a head version (like a valve junior head type thing), that'd be even more awesome EDIT: specially if they throw £50 off!

I'm dying to try one, that's for sure. far as I know, it can take most octal power tubes too, so that could be cool as well.
