Is $800 a good price for a NEW Peavey 6505?

Yeah but for $300 less you can get a 5150 EVH.

That's an awesome price, new ones normally go for $1,200ish new.

so that new 5150 is gonna be only $500? or are you talking used 5150?

used 5150s typically hit for around 500 bucks on craigslist.

$800 for a new 6505 is an excellent deal though.

yeah thats what i might do
i got to think though cause $800 is still a big price for a hobby but i'm getting sick of this spider ii that i had for three four years now.

i have a completly rebuilt 5150 which is fuckin awesome. Now i just use my line 6 guitar port!

yes, 800 for a NEW 6505 is a great deal. but used ones go from 500-600 used here and there.

and there is NO difference between the 5150 block letter, signature and 6505 heads. all the same circuitry, just different stock tubes (which should have been changed out long ago). so dont let that judge the price for you either.

and if you want a cheaper 5150 find a used peavey ultra series head.
