Up for sale is a really rare and tremendous tube amp by PEAVEY.... The MX VTX with 112 Black Widow Speaker! This is why Peavey has been around such a long time.... They sure knew how to make amps back in the 70's and 80's. Many great sounds can be had from this box....

The clean or "normal gain" side is pretty dark and warm like many Peavey amps, especially from this era. Particularly if you are a jazz player... You can get those nice, round bassy tones that sound like butter! And if you like a little more prescence in your sound, the treble knob can be pulled out for more brightness. And just like the knob says, it also thickens your sound a bit....

If you switch over to the "lead gain" side, t here is a pre amp knob to increase your volume and gain. There is also a "saturation" knob.... Which I think is like the "post" knob on many older Peavey amps.... I'm guessing it's power amp volume.

But not only does it increase volume, it also increases gain, compression and sustain. On top of that, this model also has a post knob, which controls your master volume. Combine these controls with the parametric EQ and you have a super wide range of sounds you can coax out of ths unit.....

Classic rock, country, soft rock, hard rock. And it takes pedals well, so you can also add your favorite distortion pedal if you are a Heavy Metal Player! All with the warm and powerful sound of 4 6L6 power tubes...

Giving you those Fender Twin like cleans and that greasy Fender Tweed overdrive! This thing is a BEAST. And I'm not just talking about it's terrific soun. D or its immense volume capability!

This box can get LOUD! I mean, It is freaking heavy! I'm guessing the solid 1x12 Black Widow speaker and the huge transformer contribute greatly to the weight of this excellent amp! With the rhino tolex, it makes this machine solid and literally bomb proof!

In addition to the high and low gain inputs, where you can really hear a difference in how early the amp starts to breakup into overdrive, there is a really neat feature not found on too many of these older Peavey amps, whether solid state or valve. There is a high and low power switch beside the power switch. Now, I don't notice much difference in volume/decibel levels going from low to high power.

Not much difference in tube breakup either.... That, you notice with the high and low gain inputs. But what is really cool, is that in the middle of these two settings is a STANDBY SWITCH!

Such a cool feature and super useful, since this is a tube amp!!! Plus, included with the amp is a nice spring reverb tank, which gives you your nice classic spring reverb.... Very subtle at low levels....

Just to give you more space and size with your sound. At high settings, it can get very cavernous for more dramatic and ambient soundscapes!

Also included is a footswitch (which you will really need to access the full capability of this amp) so you can switch between the lead again and clean gain channels of the amp, as well as turn the reverb on and off. The previous owner removed the "combiner" function button on this footswitch, but I really don't know if you can even combine thee two channels on this amp, anyway. This classic amp is in such great physical/cosmetic shape for a decades old amp. There aren't too many imperfections in the rhino-thick tolex or in the wood of the cabinet.
