Peavey Invective MH! Tight, Crunchy And Surprising!
Thanks for watching this episode of my new "One Song, One Amp!" series, the V2 edition! Remember my old one? I wanted to do this again but this time kick it up a notch with 8 different guitars! Should be fun! I hope to eventually feature ALL my amps in this series. Could be great for comparing amps to eachother! Cheers!

Your demos/review videos have become my go-to reference on how good can you make an amp sound. You should do a video on old solid state amps or famously "bad sounding amps".

I always check for your videos when I’m considering an amp purchase. Fantastic playing and riff writing too. I just may have to buy this amp. Thanks and keep up the great videos!
I really enjoy how and what you play here, the amp, guitars are all very well, but what you do here, with your head and your hands, is a beautiful thing!
Fantastic Demo! All could easily be be in my metal playlist. Oh and Mishas amp totally kills. awesome sounds,
Wow! That’s Sounds Great! Your Playing Is On Point Today! Very Good!👊🏻
I liek it. Great tone and cut but yet still pillowy just what im looking for!
It always brings a smile to my face that you have a billion of the worlds best amps and seemingly one of your favourite guitars seems to be a performer telecaster? :)

The inactive is definitely a very good amp, but to see always sounded like the Peavey 5105/6505 with some extras that don't justify the extra money... ended up swapping my USA 6505 with a 5150 50w stealth and couldn't be happier!

@@ddave3388 through a cab its not so good to my ears, i have peavey cab with greenbacks and HB with V30. I recently bought a reactive load and it does sound better now on studiomonitors with ir but still not what i was expecting and i keep turning the knobs searching for better tone. Maybe just not the amp for me.. i have a mt15 as well and i like that one better in every way and way easier to dial in
I'm just here for the music! 😍🤘🤘
Killer demo! How did you bypass the built in ir and use your own?
does it have a successor? micha has switched to the dark side and plays just digital stuff instead..fwould you say that it is worth the money? the 120 version was a bit disappointing for me, sounded very sterile reminded me of the big randall satan, the 50w was much better imo, 🙏
i think the problem with the MH version of this amp is, that it looses a lot of the functionality the big one has. still a good sounding amp though, just not as desireable as the 120watt
@SonicDriveStudio

It still has some cool extra features though. Especially for the studio it can do a lot
Can you balance out the levels of the clean channel and dirty channel because it seems like the same setup as mini 6505 and that would start to distort the clean channel levels to match dirty volumes?
For the crunch, is it possible to get a sound that has less highs with this amp? I like every other sound, but that one was a bit harsh to my ear.
I've been thinking about getting a 1 knob guitar for a while now. Do they feel much different then your other guitars with selectors and tone knobs

I have 3 single pickup guitars, owned more. Think P Bass. You have a good sound, so just adjust volume to taste & play. You just, as Zappa said, shut up & play yer guitar.
I tried one and passed....Thought my DSL sounded better. Problem is, everything "sounds" great here on youtube, when people have high end processing and Mic equipment, but in the real world, doesn't sound Anything like this.

Well, that doesn't really apply here because if you use the same IR that I used you'll get the exact same tone (aside from the sound of the guitar itself)
You need to sell us captures of your Amps for ToneX 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Nice! In your opinion, doesn't it suffer from the same exhausting "fizz" on the top end as the 6505MH?

Yes but you can dial it out and get a good modern tone by really cranking the low and resonance and dialing back the presence and highs a bit

Mine isn't really noisy but the built in gate on this one helps
Sir It says this little thing has a built in attenuator, so why did you decice to go with an external attenuator instead of the built-in one? BTW does the built-in attenuator only gives you the preamp out or pre+power amp signal on a line level with only the main speaker output muted?

Probably so he can use his own IRs instead.
My main issue with these small amps as well pedal/power amp solutions is the wattage is too low. Why 20w? 30w could be gigable. 40w for sure. 800 bucks for 20w is silly

Hey guys!
The Amp sounded OK, but lacked the kind of note/string separation and articulation that I've heard in some of your other Amps. It was too homogeneous sounding for my liking, as that killed the aggressiveness of the tune. 🤷
dude are you in a band? do you write music? You have awesome riffs and your playing is very smooth
