The Peavey 5150 (OG) Model Thread

Yes of course. Just send me a real EVH and I’ll get right on it

Firstly i should buy one of it then become enough rich to get second one and the last that it has to be a judgement day to ship for you even though you will never get that package so.

In all seriousness, what about adding the Helix Invective?

Helix Invective added to OP. Can't add more than 10 attachments so settings used are here. Better or worse than the stock 5150?

It's actually pretty cool having variations of the same amp

That's a great take on all of this ^.
Perfect way of mixing things up ... in a mix.


Btw...it would be cool to have Kazrog's Ampcraft 1992 in this comparison if you have it? (£15 on sale right now I believe).

Maybe it would.

I considered Shane a friend from the Sneap forum days but I got booted off his beta team and unfriended on facebook for bringing up that Ampcraft 1992 had a fixed master volume model (rather than a model that behaves accurately across the full range). Apparently it's fixed at 4 because thats where it sounds best and anything else isn't as good. Except I dont like it that high so.....

Not even a message from him when he did that. So can't really take it seriously after that. Apparently they were going to add a full poweramp model later but not sure if it ever happened.

To answer that question, I like the Invective better (and think it sounds a little more accurate for palm mutes/gain character in the comparison here), but reserve the right to change that whenever either one or both become Agoura models.

Invective seems a bit too high gain for me versus the Helix 5150 - the palm mutes/in between chugs are noticeably different.

probably my bad on the settings. On the real 5150 red channel I dont really like going above 5 on the gain. Often I'd have it around 1.
