Peavey Review: Rage

Peavey Guitar Amplifiers



History:

Purchase: I was looking for something to get to go with my new guitar and I had heard good things about Peavey so I went for the most expensive I could afford, which was 100 bucks from Axe's Music.

What I Like About This Peavey Rage: This is a very good sounding amp. It really helps my Fender Strat. sound great when I play even though I suck. I tried playing without it for a while but then soon realized that I couldn't do without being plugged into this thing. Plus I love the distortion on this thing, makes songs that weren't written for distortion sound really cool.

What I Do NOT Like About The Peavey Rage: Not to much to complain about here. The only thing is when I'm trying to play along with a CD the amp picks up some waves and the quality of sound goes down a bit but that was expected.

Peavey Rage Quality Rating: It is, and always was, in very good condition. But then again, I haven't really beaten the thing up any as it hasn't moved from my bedroom floor since I got it. I do play with it a lot and it seems to be holding up just fine. The casing seems pretty study in case I drop it but I wouldn't go testing that out.



Review Summary: I'd say buy this amp. I have heard a few and this blows them all away hands down. That is of course if your just looking for something to amplify your sound and mabye throw a little distortion in there. If your looking for some fancy stuff I still go with a Peavey, just a different model of it.
