New for Summer NAMM are Peavey's redesigned Classic Series guitar amplifiers. Originally launched in 1991, these all-tube amps retain their distinctive sound and circuitry but now feature an updated chassis design and two new models, the Classic 30 Head and matching 212 Cabinet.

Classic Series amps feature three 12AX7 preamp tubes and four EL84 power amp tubes, and are available in two 50-watt designs--the Classic 50/212 and 50/410--as well as a 30-watt combo and 30-watt head. The 50-watt models include an active presence control, and all models include footswitchable channel and reverb and three-band EQ. Classic Series combos and cabinets are outfitted with Blue Marvel loudspeakers.

Peavey Classic Series amplifiers are available now from authorized Peavey retailers.
