6505 MH

The undisputed sound of metal. The 6505 defined the sound of today’s heavy metal and remains the most recorded amp in rock. The 6505 MH is a 20-Watt all-tube, 2-channel head that delivers the crushing ultra-high gain metal tones that the Peavey 6505 is known for, but in a small package. It follows the same gain structure as its big brother. 2x EL84 power tubes and 3x 12AX7/ECC83 preamp tubes. Footswitch included. The Resonance circuit originally developed by Peavey is one of the key factors that gave modern players the sonic control to redefine the sound of today’s metal. Tight low-end with clarity and punch regardless of the volume of the amplifier.
