Guitar God 70 Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Found this on my local Craigslist the other day and picked it up today. It's a Peavey Heritage VTX 130 combo. Listed as an '82 model. Sounds good. Loud, too. Cool sounding amp. Also has a built in phaser effect, too. The guy bought it brand new and only gigged it twice and tucked it away all these years. Still has the original tubes, manual that's still sealed in the bag, and price sticker on it. It is a hybrid amp. Got it for $180. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Natural 203 Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 I think you got a good deal. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdgm 881 Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 Very good deal. In the late 70s - early 80s I had a 4x10 50w Peavey Classic combo, VT (hybrid) with phaser and that 4-way footswitch which had its own special socket. It was an excellent amp, well built and a bit darker than a Fender. Wish I still had it. 👍 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The price tag is still on it where this guy got it brand new in '82 and it was $599.50 back then. Also came with the receipt, too. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It has the built in phaser and 4 button footswitch, too. As good as this sounds, I bet the one you had sounded good, too. Peavey made some great stuff. You can find a lot old/older Peaveys second hand at great prices. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Navy Vet. 149 Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 Peavy amps don’t take a back seat to anyone. Great amp you got there. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mihcmac 827 Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 I had a very similar Peavey Stereo Chorus 212 with Scorpions. Very powerful, very loud, great for any large venue, in or outdoors. Never broke down, sold it 5 years later and sounded as good the day I bought it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LPguitarman 127 Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 (edited) Nice amp. Great deal. I love my Peavey Amp too. I'd post a picture but I don't know how to deal with the 0.05MB size limitaiton. Edited October 18, 2019 by LPguitarman 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
