I own one. I love the Amp. It is very durable. Its been through alot. It has fallen off stage and the tubes never broke. It has good low ends and high ends. I'm currently in a gospel group and the amp is good for small gigs and even some bigger gigs, but the amp will distort. I recommend the MAX 115(For 60watts its powerful) I have to say that the MAX 112 is very good for electric and acoustic guitars.

Great amp

A lot of people are saying this amp is only a personal, at home, practice amp. Well, unless you practice in an empty warehouse that you want to fill with sound, its pretty loud for just practice at home. Its the perfect amp for rehersals with a band. I haven't gigged with it yet, but im sure it will hold its own. Last night I was practicing with the band, our lead guitar has a Marshall 50 watt, and we had an acoustic, electric and elecric drums. I had to back the amp off multiple times, because it was too loud. The only thing it lacks is the massive low end... it doesn't kick it as well once you get to the low end notes. Thats to be expected with the size of the speaker in it. But other than that, its great, and you don't have to refinance your house to get it. If your doing big gigs, its not for you, but its perfect for lower volume gigs and praise and worship at church and youth group. Great buy!

This can get pretty loud to be 45 watts, however, despite the description, it seriously lacks in the tone control department. The sounds you can get out of it are pretty good, but im runnin a Zoom b2.1u through along w/ my bass so I can get pretty much any sound I want now. Headphone jack is great to have though. I would suggest the behringer BXL900. Same size, more EQ, 2 channels, and twice the wattage.

The amp is great for performing in clubs and can be heard over drums UNLESS the drums are miked. Also if your guitarist has a half or full-stack, this amp will have an extremely hard time being heard. So I would recommend having it miked. Excellent for beginners.

I bought this because it was cheap, small, light, simple and there. Intended only for home recording, where it only had to keep up with my fender champ or an acoustic run thru the board, it has surprised me several times. My lead player picked me up after work, saying "c'mon grab your stuff, we're playing a gig tonight." Well the li'l Peavey was all I had available, so I brought that and my Jazz. The gig, which was an outddor thing went beautifully, and the peavey made more than enough noise for a comfortable on-stage environment. In fact I even got compliments on the sound. At another gig, my singer's nephew and his bass player got up to do a couple of tunes. They do nu-metal rage againt the machine type stuff, and the kid was snapping and popping all over the neck. When he came off stage he told me " gee I like your amp. It cuts accross so much better than my Line6, but the line6 is only about 50 watts." When I told him the Peavey is only 40 watts he was amazed. Its as reliable as a rock, simple, and I don't get a hernia carrying it. At this price it's got a lot of bang for the buck. It COULD be a tad louder, but that's why I have a P.A.
