Peavey Solo 12W Transtube Electric Guitar Amp Review

9.1

Peavey makes great guitar amps, so I wasn’t surprised when they were able to deliver great value to a low wattage guitar amp.  Knowing that some low watt guitar amps are nothing more than toys makes the Peavey 12watt Transtube Electric Guitar Amp that much more impressive.

Peavey made a very solid amplifier when they introduced the 12W Transtube and should be considered for best guitar amps under $100. Equipped with an 8″ Blue MARVEL speaker, the Peavey 15 watt guitar Amp emulates the tone and response of a tube amp with the reliability of its solid state design. So while this is not amongst the best guitar amps, this does hold weight.
