When the iconic was announced, my first thought was 'nope, not interested in a cheaper version of what won't live up to what we already got with the previous EVH/Peavey 5150/6505 amps..' After hearing this, I'll happily admit that my reservations were unfounded and I'll happily try out a 5150 iconic in the future if the opportunity arises. Thanks Kyle and great demo!

My local shop got one maybe the day after the initial evh video dropped. We took it out of the box and plugged it into one of the 5150-3 2x12 cabs and I thought it sounded pretty good. I like the gate and though like most on board reverb, the reverb isn't that great, it's still a nice addition. If I didn't have a pile of amps already I would consider grabbing one. Hell, I still might.

Great demo! Best one I've heard so far! Based on your demos only, I think I still prefer the 6505 II, tone wise. It sounded fuller to my ears but it's not taking away the sounds of this one, especially with its price tag! I want to know though how much the 6505 II will be. The only real criticism I have with the Iconic is that it would've been cool that the overdrive, burn and reverb were footswitchable.

Surprisingly, I like the green channel better than the red channel. I’ve found that on every demo I’ve heard so far. And so far out of all the demos I’ve heard (including the official EVH demo) I think your demo sounds better and gives a more honest tone from the amp. I’m still going to hold my opinion until I get to play one myself.
@shanejb2121
@shanejb2121 2 жыл бұрын
The best review yet! To paraphrase...It highlights the "resonance, and the presenance!" ;-) I've said it before...James Brown wouldn't put his name on something crappy. The hybridizing of solid state, and tube tech is really coming into it's own now, and as far as the factory tone that some may find issue with, as time goes on, they'll be tried and true tube swaps that can add more mids, more or less smoothness in the gain etc. The one thing I've heard over and over is the amp as shipped sounds "scooped". The amp ships with an all JJ set of tubes which have long been thought of as a darker or "scooped" sounding tube, especially their 12ax7's. This amp uses solid state in key areas, and most notable, in place of V1 where much of the vintage tube "magic" happens, but the 2 valves it does use are critical to it's harmonics, and toneshaping. Many in metal love this tone, but those that don't may want to experiment with other brands. Much like with the blockletter, (which also got called fizzy, or like a distortion pedal in some circles) which I tried a number of different preamp tube in before settling on a combo of Mullards and vintage Sylvanias, I'm sure there's something out there for them. I may pull the trigger on this amp. My only concern really, is longevity, and quality of build. I'm sure it's all good, but I'll wait until there's some bench vids out there going through the guts before I do. Again....great video.

Great demo. You were able to get amazing tones right away. By the time you got to the active PUp you could have tinkered some more to get more out of it, but i think most people get the drift. This amp is fantastic. The range of gain from that basic Green channel crunch to the active pup + red channel crushing tones and Burn switch is insane. 👌🤘

I’ve had my Iconic for 3 days and this amp is amazing! I’m not trying to dial it in to sound like Eddie. The amp is very versatile and there no need to dial in a lot of gain to get a great lead sound on channel 2. I use a beautiful clean sound on channel 1. The boost works fabulous! I run a line out of the preamp out to a Boss ME70 into a JCM900 into Orange cabs. That way all my effects have a volume pedal so I can blend in modulation/delay effects into the Marshall while keeping the Iconic rock solid with a little bit of reverb. I love the reverb on the Iconic! Anyway, create your own sound with this amp, don’t try to make it sound predictable. The Iconic amp gives you everything you need to blaze into future guitar sounds…

all tube power sections and tube preamp with transister cascaded gain-staging (which by the way most editions of the JCM900 also had) makes this 5150 about 99 times more tube/valve circuit than the "valvestate", which can be described as being more in the arena of Marshall's early attempts at emulating tube tone in an otherwise purely solid state circuit. id wager most modern digital amp modelers sound better at emulating tube dynamics than the valvestate. I like the Valvestate, it has its own uses for certain tones, and is not a bad amp by any stretch, but to compare the 5150 Iconic, to a peavey-ised version of the Valvestate just honestly doesn't even really make sense or hold any real validity as a basis whether or not you should spend your money on it. Not that you can actually find Peavey VTM's these days. If you manage to see a listing for one, it won't likely be in any condition other than beat the fuck up, and probably still won't be listed for anything close to the Iconic's sticker price.

This is the best 5150 Iconic demo I have seen so far and made me almost change my mind.

Hey Kyle FWIW, James himself said the on-board boost/burn is supposed to do the opposite of tighten the amp lol. Its supposed to actually make it fatter and more saturated., closer to an original 5150/6505. That way you can try to get that 5152/5153 tightness with it off and 5150 fatness with it on. ...Also can't wait for people to say it still sounds like a solid state amp lol

I think it sounds sick. Like most people I was on the fence on what to expect from the iconic series, but it seems to deliver quite well. Like you said very tight. It still has that signature 6505/5150 gritty gain tone to it that just makes it sound so nasty. I'm digging it. Something still feels uncomfortable in a purely egotistical way knowing that it's not a full tube section but I can live with it. I might pick one of these up instead of a triple xxx soon.

Hey your review has the best tones I've heard from others but just saying they designed a 4 x 12 specifically for this amp idk if that also or how much it has to do with the sounds they intended for it but it sounds nice thru that mesa

Coming back here to say I eventually bought the 40w combo. It's a little monster, I just think I might replace the stock speaker with a spare V30 I have lying around but otherwise It's a fun and great little high gain amp. Sold a Katana and DSL20c for it and couldn't be happier.
