Peavey Butcher death/thrash tones

VOLVO))) · October 26, 2011, 07:44:45 PM

Dont be callin' people morons, man. He's just foolin'. We all do it. Stick around a while, we prod one another often. Gear is so subjective, and we all vary. Just be cool.

I play a jcm800, for the record. I just love me some Peavey.

Quote from: Hemisaurus on October 26, 2011, 07:28:44 PMVery few want a Fender though.

Metal dudes don't care about Fender amps. But that's a small minority

Yeah, then they find out what a Marshall is.

Or they find out that when it's stripped down it's more like a Fender Bassman then they realized. The fuck is it with people not wanting a Fender amp? Seriously, I want to get a Bassman just so I can run effects through it. Great platform.

But yeah... Whatever.

I'm not going to even bother getting into the "Br00tals Def Meatlz usan Peaveez" argument that seems to have been put out.

Ampeg vh-140c, ampeg vl1002, and JCM800S with a boss hm-2 = swedish death metal tone.

don't forget the peavey bandit!

I imagine the only reason that Peaveys were used is because they were relatively cheap and the SS amps had the most disgusting (quite literally) distortion ever.

RAGER · October 26, 2011, 08:04:35 PM

Yep I love poking fun about Peavey. Just for the record I own 3 pcs of Peavey gear, one of which is a bass amp that I love. I also own a 72 Orange. And (gasp) I have Fenders too and some other various other stuff. And yes I have a very "soughts" after 1969 Marshall Super Bass metal panel. Same exact guts as a Plexi. And fuck you Sunno))))), it can run a full 20 minutes before crapping out. And man does it sound bad fucking ass

VOLVO))) · October 26, 2011, 08:11:09 PM

98.6 degrees like all men. I think its because i get warmed up so fast, I just cant handle it. I usually eat a sandwich after, then it works again.

I'm not taking this too seriously either haha. I like all sorts of amps I just found a good deal on this one and it's got the power I need so I'll make it work. I'm glad it's got a tight overdrive. Sounds like a really versatile amplifier.

i will probably never own a marshall 800. so little low end.

Hemisaurus · October 26, 2011, 08:18:03 PM

The reason Marshall's sounded so much better than Fenders to many people is not the amp, but the cabinet. If Fender had made their combo's closed back, they would have sounded a lot ballsier.

The thing about amps, is even something as small as changing the value of a coupling cap, can alter the tone of the whole amp, forget EL34 vs. 6L6 or whether Dagnall's sound better than Partridge vs. whatever the heck Fender were using, just changing a cap value can do it.

Mine is a beast. Has the same low end as my T... just sayin'

What was that pink Behringer pedal again, the HM-2 replacer?

every time I listen to this clip, I dig out my Entombed CD's again.

VOLVO))) · October 26, 2011, 08:49:38 PM

Hm300 or something?

Yeah I found it, hence the vid

hashbrowns · October 26, 2011, 10:03:31 PM

Yeah i like the sound of all those behringer old school clones. They have one for the fz-2 or whatever that pedal that the guy from ewiz supposedly uses. It also sounds pretty spot on. Thats one of the nice things about a butcher is that I've heard that it takes distortion and fuzz boxes well so I could go for that swedish tone if I wanted.

VOLVO))) · October 27, 2011, 02:22:45 AM

I miss mine, nonoman owns it.

Peavey's seem to have some great low end. My VTX has the most low end of any amp I've ever played.

Hemisaurus · October 27, 2011, 08:26:02 AM

Ashdown, mine has the most low end, even without the subharmonic on, probably explains why Tim Bagshaw still uses his, even thoiugh he's switched instruments

SpaceTrucker · October 28, 2011, 04:09:01 PM

Peaveys have GREAT lowend for guitar amps, My vtm's Transformers go down to 50 hz. And that muther sounds great on bass too. Of course I have a hiwatt inspired cab. Slot Ports on the back. Shallow. But bassy as hell even with the bass on my vtm120 at 0.
