Ya know, I friend and I talked about that. My instructor has an old
Fender tube amp and I'd go for my lesson, and hook it up, and the
sound was amazing compared to my Peavey.

----------------------------------

With a few exceptions, there is no comparison of a Peavey amp to a Fender in
the $1000 and under price range. Fender makes some really good guitar amps.
Peavey makes so-so guitar amps.
My opinion, of course.


If Fender was better I would have thought that Peavey could just copy
it. Few machined parts to figure out how to tool up for. I have wired
up a tube radio, when I was in the 6th grade. It ain't like trying to
copy an IC. There is always someone who is best, sometimes for less
dough, and its always known tech anyone that wants to can do well.
There are exceptions Of course there is the high end stereo amp that
has about fifty pounds of silver in the transformers. Some people are
nuts. The Russians still make all kinds of tubes, I understand.
