Peavey Classic 50

Looking for great-sounding valves for the Peavey Classic 50 amplifier? You’ve come to the right place.

Valves for Peavey Classic 50 amplifier.

The Peavey Classic 50 amplifier (both the 212 and the 410 model) uses:

• 2 x 12AX7 (also called ECC83) preamp valves.
• 1 x Balanced 12AX7 for the Phase Splitter position (V3).
• 4 x EL84 matched power valves/power tubes.

Note: The balanced ECC83 for the phase inverter goes in the V3 position, which is the preamp valve furthest from your input jack.

(Warning: The original Peavey Classic 50 212 models from the 1970s is different. It is a hybrid amplifier using a solid-state pre-amp stage and 2 x 6L6GC power valves).

Over time, your valves slowly lose both their tone and their power. So it’s important to change them regularly to keep your amp sounding its best.

We recommend JJ Electronics valves for this amp. They deliver superb tone across the entire range and are the perfect choice for this amplifier.

About the Peavey Classic 50 amplifier:

The Peavey Classic 50 is a 50W all-tube amp that comes as either a 2 x 12 combo or head version. They both use the same valve set. It has a responsive gain structure and warm and punchy set of 12AX7 and EL84 tubes.

The Classic Series guitar amps are loved by blues players,  country cats and rockers alike. These amps are available in vintage tweed with Blue Marvel speakers and knobs straight out of the rock ‘n’ roll era.

The real beauty of The Peavey Classic 50 is its pure, clean tone, even at high volume. It can get hugely loud without breaking up, but it sounds super-sweet in the rehearsal room and at home. Either channel can be set for chunky tube overdrive, but the Lead channel’s distortion pushes it to a new level.

The Peavey Classic 50 features dual switchable channels: normal and lead (with pre and post). Both are controlled by a master volume. It has spring reverb and 3 bands of EQ (bass, mid, and treble) plus a presence control. There are two inputs, normal and bright.

The channel selection and reverb can be controlled by an optional foot-switch and there is an effects loop. There are separate output jacks for 8-Ohm or 16-Ohm (stock) speakers, so a slave speaker cabinet can be used.
