  • And one that her parents and siblings like: the power sponge
Size: 100 watts
After considering a half dozen or more amps of this size and feature set, I purchased this one for my granddaughter (her little 10-watt practice amp just wasn't adequate any more). This one has way more features than she really needed, but has some key features that she really appreciates. And one that her parents and siblings like: the power sponge, which keeps the volume down but lets her use all the other controls and features as they were intended. She loves it, and has been trying out many of the models, presets, and effects. For the most part, I'm happy with the quality of this amp. But in two respects, the build quality is not up to what I expected from Peavey. One is cosmetic -- the amp arrived with one of the plastic corners of the case broken. No big deal, just cosmetic. A little more serious was the fact that it came with three loose screws fastening the speaker to the cabinet. I heard them rattling around inside, so I took the back off, put one screw back in, and replaced two other screws with larger screws, because the threads were loose in the hole. Careless assembly -- one screw not fully driven in, two screws driven so hard they ate the wood. Fixable, if you're handy with a screwdriver and have extra screws lying around. Not so cool, though, if you're not so handy. One other minor complaint: no written instructions at all, not even a quick start guide. Just a disk with manuals and software. Not that it's complicated -- just plug it in and turn it on to get started. The manual I downloaded was kind of skimpy, too, at least to my eyes -- it didn't really have a whole lot of detail about the various models, effects, presets, and other settings. I expected more. But I'm not the one using it, and my granddaughter is happy with it. I'd buy it again. ... show more

  • Great amp!
Size: 100 watts
To be honest, I had only tried this amp once at a local Guitar Center and didn't get to spend very much time with it, nor did I really know how to work it. The presets I tried sounded pretty good, though. I actually thought about it for several months afterward and then I blew my bass amp (I play bass, too). Since you can run a bass through this amp without blowing it, it started to sound like a better and better idea. So really, I had more than one reason for buying this particular one. I liked the idea of the power sponge as well, for being able to get that more "saturated" sound at bedroom volumes in my apartment. That feature is certainly helpful. The main thing I like about it though are the sounds of the presets. They are pretty darn amazing and I've had other modeling amps and processors that don't come anywhere near it. Keep in mind that you have to take it out of demo mode before you start moving knobs or they will go right back to their default positions after you switch presets or turn the unit off. I do recommend, however, putting it right back in demo mode again once you're satisfied and have saved the preset. Reason being, so that you won't mess it up again by accidentally moving the wrong knob or something and not being able to get it back the way you liked it. It's easy enough to get it in and out of demo mode and if you really mess your presets up, you can always do a factory reset and get it right back the way it came. I got the unit about a month ago and just ordered the sanpera 2 footswitch for it, which I should be getting in a few days. Until then, can't say anything about the looper function, because you can't operate it without the footswitch. In all honesty though, it's the sound of the presets that I really like the most. My main guitar right now is an Epiphone G-400 Pro and the 6505 and 6534 models sound really great with it, beyond what I expected. Peavey really nailed it with the whole Trans Tube thing. I asked myself if I could have done just as well getting the VIP 2, since this is mostly for recording at home, but the power sponge and digital display were calling my name, lol. ... show more

  • And the volume knob goes up to 13!
Size: 40 watts
When I started reading about this amp, I decided I had to get it. If it actually delivered on all of its promises, it was more than I would be even more than I could have ever asked for. Well, it mostly delivered. Let me say that one thing that particularly pleases me is the absence of wires. It's in my living room and I hated the wires cluttering up the floor around my previous amp which I was using with a DigiTech RP90 multieffects pedal. Now I have all of the most important stompbox effects built into the amp and there are no wires on the floor anymore. The single power cord is behind the amp and out of sight. On the positive side let me say that this is the warmest digital amp I've owned. It makes the Line 6 competition seem lame by comparison. In terms of tube tone, it sounds as good as my Bugera V22 did. After I sold that amp, I experienced seller's remorse but that has evaporated with the VIP 2. The stomp and rack effects all sound great. On the con side, the instrument emulations are a mixed bag. In what world, for example, does a sitar sound like the one Peavey incorporated in this amp? Ditto for the resonator. The synth emulation seems rather limited. Don't expect to be able to do a lot with it. The electronic violin requires learning how to use it. For example, stay within a violin's range or things get strange. The 12-string and bass guitar emulations are okay, but don't buy this amp hoping to find much use for the instrument emulations. Another con has to do with presets. You know, with a Line 6 amp in the same price range you'll get a dizzying array of tone presets intended to emulate the sounds famous guitarists obtained on particular tracks. None of that here. Eventually, I'm sure guitarists will put up their approximations of such tones in terms of the settings they used, but for now you're on your own to feel your way toward Jimi Hendrix' tone on All Along The Watchtower or Alex Lifeson's tone on Tom Sawyer. You may at first wonder why there are two electric guitar presets (Electric 1 and Electric 2), but if finally dawned on me that one could for lead and the other for rhythm guitar functions. By pressing the preset's button you can toggle between four memory areas, so you can have four settings under Electric 1 and four more under Electric 2 for a total of eight electric guitar presets, which aren't many by comparison with, for example, the 50 I could save on my RP90 multieffects pedal, but you can't have everything. However, there are probably enough there for a gigging guitarist to have what he needs for a stage performance. He'll want the Sanpera pedal though so that he doesn't have to take his hands off the guitar to switch from rhythm to lead. I don't know if it's an inside joke at Peavey or what, but do you recall the scene in Spinal Tap where Nigel Tufnel brags that while most amps have volume controls going up to "10" his goes up to "11"? Well, this amp's volume knob actually goes up to "13"! I got a laugh out of that. Also, to take full advantage of the amp's possibilities, you'll need to spend at least $80-$90 for the Sanpera i pedal. With it you get pedal control over volume, a wah pedal, and also control over some of the parameters of some of the other effects. When it arrived, it was in a pretty corrugated box inside a plain corrugated box and wrapped in a plastic bag. One of the rear corner caps was broken and the pieces were inside the plastic bag, so I deduct that the cap was broken in China after it was bagged but before it was boxed. I've mentioned this to Peavey. Maybe they'll send me a replacement corner cap. I certainly wasn't going to return the amp over it but it was a bit disheartening to unpack the amp only to discover it wasn't in perfect shape. The amp arrived in three business days, but since there was a weekend in there, delivery took five days. I hate UPS. All the other delivery services are better. That includes USPS. BTW, I'm still learning this amp. If I was wrong or inaccurate, please correct me. ... show more
