peavey tmax head

[sbrag]

My local rehersal studio has a peavey tmax head as part of their basic backline. I really like the tone especially the valve channel. Im just trying to get an idea of their cost 2nd hand. Cheers

Since you are in Bristol, there is a Tmax 2x10 combo (the same head, mounted in a case). Give him a call. http://www.heronmusic.co.uk/

Cheers. I've seen it its nice with reinforced cab but i think they were asking about £500 which is a bit steep for me at the moment so was just curious how much the heads were on their own to see of its any more affordable.thanks again

Played the T-Max head in my old (black/thrash metal) band, great amp - actually preferred it over the Ampeg SVT-3pro (which I originally wanted to buy before I came across the T-Max). Wanted something lighter after a while, but tone-wise it's still one of those amps I regret having sold!

But 500[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]£ is way overpriced ... Got mine for about 150[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]£ (though it really was a great deal), but from time to time they appear on ebay or the 2nd hand market for about 180-250[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]£. If you don't mind the weight and like the tone, and find one in good condition in that price range - go for it, they really are great, reliable amps [/font][/color]
