F/S and Trade - Peavey 5150 (signature head)

[Fender868]

Well i recently got this, and as it turns out, just like my other 5150, it's an awesome amp, but it's just too much gain for me. It's amazing how you can emulate Eddie's sound real easy with this amp, but then again it's no surprise with all the work they put in it.

This amplifier has 4 sovtek 6l6's in the Power Tube section and 5 Sovtek ecc83's in the pre amp circuit. The tubes are fairly recent, as they saturate quite well and sound very good and warm. It's the only 6L6 driven amp that i can tolerate as it has quite a large range of tonalities. Again, i like to play with el-34's better. Anyways, it's quite a heavy metal amp and i know a lot of big players out there live by these amps.

The amp itself is in good condition. It's been owned by one guy who had bought it new out of impulse. He sold his cab recently and was left with the head. He busted his strat the other day (no bull****, i saw it and it's a mess) and so he needed money quick. Otherwise he'd probably have kept it even though he couldn't play it. Anyways, i love the tone, but i can get EVH tones from my JSX and two amps is just two much stuff for me.

I will accept equal value trades. Just to put it out there, i am looking for a Carvin Legacy. They are hard to come by in Canada, and i'd reaaaally love to have one as it's right up my alley in terms of sound. So yeah. IF not guitars are also welcome. 7 strings as well, i could use one in my rig.

If not, it is for sale for a nominal fee 0f 750$ with shipping included. The price is pretty fixed, but i will entertain a bit of haggling. Try me if you wish

Would you concider a trade for a mint carvin legacy 212 combo. ?

[Fender868]

I so regret selling this now...

Is there anything else you`d be interested in perhaps ? I feel stupid, i don`t have much money to spend on this. After i bought my last jem, i vowed to save my money and quiet down my expenses. Just let me know. I`ve been looking for a Legacy amp head, but a combo would do fine.

what else do you have

[Fender868]

I have stuff that is more or less normal.

I have a 2001 Fernandes Strat model thats a wicked guitar. Nice flat maple fretboard and a super comfy unfinished necks, probably my number 1 guitar until my jem came in. It also has the sustainer pick-up factory installed and that thing is loads of fun, plus it gives a third dimension to anything you play. They still sell these in stores for 1000$ without taxes. Steves Montreal price that is!

2000 BC-Rich ST-III in decent shape. Theres not much to say. ITs a real nice guitar, but the guy i got it from didn`t like the on/off pick up switching system that ST-III`s have boasted for years, so he plugged up the exterior switches and put a three way in the middle. Pick-ups have all been changed. The bridge is a super-distortion, the two singles i assume are HS series from dimarzio. The floyd was changed for a Jackson Floyd Trem. He said the gold had faded off the original, and he was more fond of the jackson. I agree, it is a decent trem. All in all, i was going to make a restauration project out of her because she plays really well and reminds me of HM strats. It has a rounded stratish body with 22 frets and nice round C-shape neck.

I also have an extra Jem, but i like her a lot - just not as much as my SK. However, she costs me lots and i wouldn`t be willing to give her up for just a combo. I have other things lying around. Fernandes bass with Peavey Microbass. I used to have better things to trade, but i`ve been downsizing. So i put these things up cause i`d be willing to combine most of the things into just one item, even if i get less than what it`s all worth...

so will you trade the 5150 for the legacy combo? I'm located in peterborough ontario

So, I'm guessing the 5150 is gone?
