Peavey Windsors are.....

[guitarguru1969]

Mine came with the bias set to 13 ma per tube. I cranked it to 38 which was 70% dissipation. Huge difference. I now have lots of headroom and warm tone. No more crossover distortion ala Peavey for me please. I like mine with passives better, which sucks because I have to get a good set of passives for my Paul. Prolly a Nailbomb?

Just another color in the palette.... hey, for $200, you can't go wrong. It's a one trick pony, but it beats the shit out of a modeling amp at any price.

I'm not sure if I'll agree with that:

Listen to that and some of LosingReality's clips. They're completely different, yet they're both awesome in their own right.

By "One trick Pony" I mean that it's single channel & might not be your first choice for clean tones.

I'll check your clip out when I can... I'm on my auxiliary machine at the moment & don't have speakers hooked up.

BTW, someone mentioned bias? Does the Windsor have a bias knob?

I believe it is fixed bias but you can adjust the bias on it see here: http://music-electronics-forum.com/t13238/

If I put my Windsor's master on 5, I'm sure my 2 year old niece would die. That amp is super loud (or at least mine is since modification).

Yep, i got mine in my closet....pretty much like an ISO CAB type deal....its all insulated out and kills the noise. Only thing that comes through is alittle low end really. All the highs and mids are killed....
