10:59 Outro 7 Dagan's Thoughts
This dual-channel amplifier provides all the sound and tonal characteristics of the original Peavey 6505 but packs it into a 20-watt head that you can drop down to 5 watts or 1-watt output - ideal for home studios and practising at home.
This is a great tube amp for home use that metal players and those more inclined towards heavy rock will enjoy.

One of the cool features within this Peavey 6505 MH is the T.S.I tube monitoring. This lets you know that your valves are working correctly, and lets you know if you need to change a dying or dead tube!
This is also incredibly versatile as you can USB directly into an audio interface and even change channels, activate crunch, engage the effects loop and reverb effects with a footswitch.
A headphone output also lets you practice in silence and riff away without disturbing your neighbours!
This small tube amplifier packs enough punch with its 20 watts and is portable enough so you can comfortably gig with it and record high quality guitar sounds anywhere.

I'd like to take a second to appreciate Dagan being the one guy to demo this amp who doesn't run a crazy 9-string scalloped Ibanez with Fluence pickups and a Floyd tuned to Drop G tuning and then use nothing but the first fret on the lowest string.
I completely agree with you.
So he instead used a 6k+ euro Gibson, which is of course what everybody plays these days...
@@netherfred well an SG is an SG, its not like the $5,000 Gibson one is going to sound that much better/different than a $300 Epiphone, most people probably couldn't tell the difference.
@@netherfred Considering 90 percent of the tone comes from the amp, the guitar really doesn't matter
😂😂😂
EVH really left his mark everywhere he went
This guy is a master at demonstrating gear!
What a lovely lovely sounding amp this is. I appreciated this demo immensely. Thankyou so much for taking the time to make this.
great demo of this amp, it sounds amazing.
I have this amp and love it. You do a great demo of it too, Dagan.
This guy gets tones out of this thing that nobody else can. This guy does justice to all the gear I have seen him demo
Thanks! 🤘
Love the enthusiasm bro your great at these reviews ..cheers bro nice work dood
My God the clean channel is amazing
Nice demo. Thank you.
What an amazing and comprehensive review and demo. I'm a total metal head and I love the 6505 ± tone from bands like Chimaira and the master Rob Arnold. But, this shows me what I wanted to hear. All the other great things that make this amp so great. Dagan you're just as awesome as the amp.
Bruh, I am also a HUGE Rob Arnold fan. Question, do you think this mini tube head would be a suffice for something heavy but with less crazy high watts? I live in an apartment but really want to invest in something that will give me the heaviness I want. I doubt I’d be able to work with the 6505+ with a 4x12 mesa boogie cabinet lol
@8:27 is what won me over. I’ve always loved the gain channel of these amps but that loose change in the pocket clean caught me by surprise
Excellent demo! I just picked one up. Extremely versatile and extremely easy to dial in many many different tones. So much more than just a metal amp.
I can't really discern from the video, how is the clean channel in your opinion? I assume it'll be a bit better than the full size due to the different tubes
@@joeybydin439 I've had one for about two years now. The default clean channel IMO is a little dull, but with the bright switch on it's actually pretty damn cool. It's a little Vox-ish to my ear with some nice chime in the high end.
That said it REALLY doesn't have a lot of spare headroom, and I had to swap one of the pre-amp tubes for something a little less noisy to comfortably run more than about one drive pedal into it (don't remember what exactly, but I'm sure there's a guide online).
If I were buying something strictly for cleans and had the money to burn, I'd spring for a Vox or Fender. If you're looking for a good metal amp for not a lot of money that also has a decent clean channel, and you're willing to put in a little work, you can do a lot worse than this.
I absolutely freakin adore this amp.
I ordered the mini stack with the 2x12 and the head and they are back ordered everywhere until march first. I cant wait till mine gets sent out to me
That’s a great sounding amp.
Great video,great tone from the el84s as they dont sound thin,typical of many el84 tube amps
Rock on Dagan! 🤘
This recently became available in Australia again a few weeks ago and I snapped one up! What a BEAST!! Well worth the purchase! The rhythm channel can still get a great clean to a JMP-JCM 800 ish (think Def Leppard High n Dry) to that rip your face off 6505 we all know and love on the lead channel. Gain for days and if you put a screamer in front of your choice it’s pure heaven!
Hi.mate this through a 412 loud enough for a 3 piece punk bank report live without micing??
Fuck yeah!
Awesome amp! Sounds so great!
And very nice review!
Cheers from Portugal 🍺🤘🇵🇹
Bad ass playing dude!
Those shorts 🩳 rock! 🤘
This dude is great. This amp is great too!
6:33 - Hey, an SYL quote. Nice! \m/
Great demo thanks Dagan. I love your style man. Just wanted to mention that in some recent videos the sound quality didn't seem very good, but this one was great. Must be that Peavey. BTW, my first amp was a Peavey combo. Cheers from lockdown in Melbourne. Stay safe and well.
same, first amp was a Peavey Rage 158
I still have my Bandit 112. In Melbourne as well.
Mines a silver stripe. I've still got it in the shed.
Sound alot better thru some Vintage 30's. Aside from that love the channel
Huge thumbs up for the Strapping Young Lad riffing 🤌🤘
The big brother's got a quite a bit more low end because of 6L6s but this thing is a monster too.
This is the 2nd demo I've seen on youtube that proves what insane rock tone this amp has. Smoother than Marshall, but yet still crisp enough.
Bit of an Angus vibe man...
The shorts and the SG..
Wheres your school cap?
Nice job !
Appreciate the Strapping Young Lad Riff.
Great demo, but I'm unsure whether you accurately described what the enable/defeat switch does. According to the manual, "this feature effectively disconnects any speaker/cabinet connected to the SPEAKER OUTPUT and redirects the output to an internal dummy load." So I don't think the impulse response in the MSDI is ever turned off, that switch just allows you to play/record silently without a speaker cab or separate dummy load connected to the speaker output. And you'd have to insert a Two Notes into the speaker output and ignore the MSDI altogether to get different IR's... Right? Love your stuff, dude!
Love the SG but would love to see the Kramer more. 🤘
I love this guy's reviews, he can sell me on anything, give him a line 6 spider III and he'd make it sound like gold
Shout out for the strapping young lad riff!
I got one no regerts after trying a V30 in a Blackstar HT5R to no avail. The BS was a slightly pissed Angus while the 6505mh is Armageddon.
Welcome back to pmtv with northern Russel Brand
actually, the SPKR button is for turning the speaker (cab) to which the amp is connected on and off, not the emulated speaker, that cannot be turned off
For Posterity: True, but a line out from the effect send bypasses the speaker emulation for the purpose of using one’s own IRs and recording.
No other amp out there that makes me smile like the 6505.... except MAYBE the Friedman BE but at itS price point, the 6505 OWNS
Can you review the Peavey Classic 20?
Mini amp demand Mini trousers!
FYI... for all in the states... it is in stock and available for $599 at the most dominant store you can think of over here. Not trying to advertise for them at all... PMT has it going on! Sadly, we all know the store I am talking about. Not so many other chains anymore, only a few. Like the amp though and wanted to give a nod to where there is some stock right now.
SHORTS!! What was he demoing again?
Thought about the peavey 6505 mini head i have the 5150 mini tube amp does the 6505 sound better than the 5150 mini tube head
In Line6 terminology I think it is the PV Panama! :P
Choobs, baby!
you forgot to mention about it's voltage selector were you can plug it in at any country electric currency volts
Dam that's a good sounding amp. All the gear sounds so good, how the hell do you choose haha
You buy it all.
Could you use this amp live?
Sounds very "pokey" with that cabinet in this video. Would running it through the Peavey 212-6 cabinet (twin 25W Greenbacks) enhance the low end?
would this amp sound good with a esp ltd Stephan carpenter 8 string
How would this do with a 2x12 cab
This guy should be world famous, just like the Eddie.
8:45 Slipping into several ACDC songs there & quikly turned away
Would you say it has the same feel as the 5150? Great video!
The amps are the exact same wiring wise it's just a difference in tubes. So it will give you a great 5150 like sound but it's different. And if your talking evh 5150 not peavey then evh are known to sound a little less warm
@@guitarandgames1386 great info here, thanks!
Is there any difference between the 5150 3 mimi 15 watt head and the peavey 6505 20watt tube head
We don't talk about that
Just bought this amp and tried to use it at band practise Sounds awesome BUT 20watt setting..
lead channel is getting unusable amounts of feedback at 4 pre gain, post gain at around 6. Is that typical of the amp. Or did I get a duff one?
I see lots of good reviews on this amp but I hear a lot of people just like you say the same exact thing. That's what made me never pull the trigger on one. I hear a lot of people saying that it has uncontrollable amounts of feedback and hissing and buzzing
Would a power conditioner help?
Learn how to use it
@franktib I do have several years of gigging with various marshalls and I have to say I've never had this problem. I've tried this amp multiple times and it is just unusable on high gain channel at gigging volumes without a noisegate, and I don't like the negatives to using those. Great on the crunch channel though.
Are the 6505 20 watt mini tube head different than evh 5150 3 15 watt tube head
All down to personal taste and your own ears, but after a fair bit of reading, I get the feeling that the Pevey Invective MH trumps both but is quite a bit more money
Hey why we don´t have legends?
Does it have a headphone jack?
Is that Peavey cab a 1×12 or 2×12
Can this amp not sound so thin and scratchy?
“Every venue in the world has stairs to carry amps up”………the oricle has spoken….the truth. Yes, sometimes you have to lift the amp up over your head to get over the post at the 90° turn in the stairs…..lookin at you 5th Avenue in Novi….
I know the exact flight of stairs your talking about. Had to help a bass player get his ampeg refrigerator past that very bend 😂
This guy makes me wish I was British!
SYL!
did he harmonized with himself at the start?!?!
Great playing as always but that thing sounds like a fizzy mess
get a peavey vypyr!
I love 6505 20w
I hate my wallet
Okay, I see it, no it doesn't. Didn't see the whole video at first, duh!!
It does have a headphone jack.
The mic placement choice is questionable.
just wondering, where would you put it?
@@iangarza990 I'm for having a mic further away to capture ambience to blend in, but generally if I had only 1 mic, I'd start by put it right up to the grill, especially for a lower watt amp so you can capture as much low end and warmth as possible.
Angling mics are fine as well but it adds colour rather than straight. I'll often have one straight and one angled and blend the 2. But, again, if I had one mic it would be straight on the grill.
As far as where the mic on the cone goes, generally the closer to the cap the brighter, the further the darker. Shift that to taste. If you're going for bright EVH tones I'd put it closer.
Just my 2 cents. It's fun experimenting with mic placement!
@@iangarza990 that's what she said
Not bad for rythem no good for lead
Umm...the 6505 was the Peavy 5150 (made for metal) before it became the 6505. I love Peavey...but this amp sounds like crap. Went with the EVH LBX2 instead.
DO NOT BUY mine quit working after 6 months and my guitar techs stopped working a little over a year. Their costumer support is basically non existent. DO NOT BUY
Where is metal in this demo?
Fuck metal
