    My goal on the Iconic for the Green channel Overdrive was to match the Blue Channel 5150 III…but with a little more overall gain. And the Red channel is a little LESS gain without Burn than the III’s. So those two sounds overlap. Plus when you kick in the amp’s Boost footswitch pedal, it adds another 8dB in front in addition to what it adds with the knob after the preamp. So there’s a lot of flexibility using those switches and footswitch.

    I play in a rock cover band. Everything from Joe Walsh to ZZ Top to AIC and in between. I use a 50-watt stealth through two 2x12s loaded with EVH greenbacks. I don’t even leave the blue channel. Simply phenomenal. I’m not saying it’s better than the others, but damn it is a great amp if you play live in front of people.

    I love me some 5150 heads. All of them. Right now I own an Iconic combo and it's little freaking fireball. I don't see myself upgrading anytime soon except to get something like Stealth with a cab or a JP-2C or something, but even then I'm willing to take my time coz this amp just makes me so happy. I'm having a ton of fun with it.

    All great. Invective was my favourite.
    Regarding the Iconic. It’s of the same pedigree and one can’t go wrong with the tone. I just think a used 6505 or 6505+ are a better bang for the buck and reliable long term.

    The first time I heard and got to play through the 5150 3 Stealth I was floored by the blue channel with an OD808 in front of it. It was tighter than either my block letter or 5150 II. Yet at the same time it just had this chewy harmonic richness to it for big chords and open strings. For the record, I've been playing guitar long enough and hanging around guitarist forums like harmony central long enough to fucking hate using terms like "CHEWY" to describe tone... but alas, I really can't come up with another term to describe it and you can hear it here during this stream. The Iconic gets close, which it should since James designed it that way, but the stealth just has a little sprinkle of magic going on that I'm in love with.
    It was the first amp I played in years that made me want to buy another amp. I already had a 5150 block letter, 5150 II, so I didn't think I needed another 5150. The last amp I bought before that was a Splawn Nitro years ago but I ended up selling it to fund the stealth. Great amp. You don't hear a ton about Splawn unless you're on gear forums and such. I know you've demo'd it on the channel before too. Now I own all 3 5150s, pretty much my only tube amps at this point, that and my axefx 2 is all I'm working with these days.

  • @sqrly2u

    Agreed. The discussion in the vids are more important to me than too much playing. I need to hear the playing, but the discussion is the bite for me. As far as tubes, to me it is the highs and lows between them. Not the so-called "tone" or "warmth".

  • @kylegrossi8175
    @kylegrossi8175 Рік тому +6

    I love these videos but i feel so many times you set the amps to sound the same. A suggestion would be to do same setting comparisons across all amps so we can really get a taste of the tonal differences. Example:
    EQ set at noon to compare
    Scooped setting comparisons
    Mid EQ bump comparisons. etc.

    Man, there is something about the original Peavey 5150, as soon as you turned it on the mids popped a bit more and it sounded mean. I almost sold my block letter years ago that I bought new when it was released and that would've been a mistake. That amp is a classic and sounds amazing.

    Kyle, if you don’t have one already - get literally the BEST tuner out there - the Peterson StroboCLIP HD - set it to one of the sweetened tunings and all the issue go away / it’s an insane difference vs. chromatic tuners, etc.. even has sweetened tunings for 7-strings, etc!
    The APP for iPhone is also very good but more finicky!
    Love the stream; thank you!!
    I used to ALWAYS say the OG 5150 was my favorite amp in the world but especially in this comparison (and even in my own room; I have one with the original tubes as well) it just sounds…. Dated! I know it records wonderfully but in this video I preferred the….
    ICONIC! Wtf!! 😮😮😮😮😢😢😢 hahah cheers!

    What?! No Iconic??!?!!? You're trash bro!!! I'm joking. This is Def a dope video. Is anyone buying the Misha anymore? That's not a hit at all, I loooove Misha and Periphery. It's just expensive. Doesn't mean it's worth more than it is at all. But I feel like Peavey people are looking for badass lower prices. But its a dope amp regardless. Definitely worth the money. I just feel like the Iconic if you buy a couple od and noise gates is amazing. And I have the a lot of peavey stuff. Definitely need noise reducers and not an od vut a good od like the KMA Pylon which is a gate and an od is perfect. K, bye
