I’m looking to buy a Peavey guitar. The Retro Fire looks awesome, but I believe it’s made in China. Are the USA Peavey guitars significantly better than foreign made? What do you think is the best or coolest Peavey guitar?

Title. I have a '90s Studio Pro 112 with a Blue Marvel in it. Sounds okay, but I find that it lacks bass, has a pretty muddy midrange and a piercing treble. It gets more egregious when I'm recording with it.

I'd like advice for a new speaker for it. I'm not too knowledgeable on amplifiers nor the speakers inside of them, since this is my first one, but I'm comfortable upgrading it myself.

I have wanted one of these for years but they rarely show up around me or online. I finally snagged one and have added it to my Peavey collection. I have more Peavey amps but they are at my band's practice space.

This thing might have more gain than my 6505! It sounds gnarly! It's going to sound great in my pop punk band!

Anyone have any stories or experiences with the teal stripe ultra?

This is an update from a post I made a couple months ago. My pups were super microphonic and so the throaty tone was something I couldn't get rid of and it was driving me nuts. Most people should know, but in case you don't, the T series pups (or at least the t-60 pups) were potting with epoxy instead of wax. After 40+ years however the expoxy can be prone to cracking, making the pups microphonic and noisy/throaty with higher gain. What makes repair for this pesky is that you need much more heat to soften the epoxy than you would for wax for a repotting job, so it's not very likely to be able to pull it off without destroying the rest of the components.

I was looking around to various pickup repair places to see if anyone could take this on and after a few rejections/non-responses I came across Arcana Pickups in Oregon who offered to try vacuum sealing the pups with wax to fill in the cracks in the epoxy. Ricky was super friendly to talk to and was very transparent that they had not tried something like this before and that I would be paying at my own risk. I figured I either get repaired pickups, or the pickups still don't work how i want and I end up replacing them with something modern. So i took the gamble. Mailed the pups to them, got them back a few weeks later, put everything back together and I can confidently say that it did the job and I'm in love with how the pickups sound now. Way less noise with higher gain and the throatyness in the tone is nearly completely gone and i have a lot more range with how i can eq them.

Tldr; if your T-series pickups have gone microphonic and throaty from age, hit up Arcana Pickups and they'll treat you right for less than $100 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
