Great Amp

by Steven from

This is a great amp, esp for the money. I play a stock Gibson Les Paul Studio and I play everything from Hendrix and Pink Floyd to GNR and Metallica and the C30 sounds great.. It can handle any type... read more [+] of music except high gain shredding but you can always add a pedal since it takes pedals just fine. The cleans are sweet, the reverb is very usable and the dirty channel is perfect for GNR type riffs. Its pretty small in size but gets LOUD but still sounds really good at lower levels. The build quality is very nice (and its USA made) and it looks sweet in person. Mine has a cage around the tubes to protect them and there's even some dampening material in with the tubes to keep them from rattling, which I haven't experienced. I've had it for about 9 months and I haven't had a single problem with it. If you like playing the blues, classic rock and rock, I doubt you can find a much better deal than the C30. I looked at tons of amps before I bought this thing and if anything were to happen to it, I'd buy another one, hands down. close [-]

I have had my Classic 30 for six years. It has an amazing, expressive
tonal range, sweet clean to dirty blues. It has plenty of volume.
It sounds great without pedals. Best combo amp ... read more [+]I've ever owned. close [-]

A Great Little Package

This amp is just great. You get two useable channels. The clean chanel is as good as any fender i have ever played. The distorion channel is also great. With a little gain you get your blues tones.... read more [+] Push the gain half way you get that southern rock tone. Crank the gain all the way and you get that black in back ac/dc tone. Plus its got a boast that seems to ad midrange to your playing. Amp akes pedals very well also. Come with quality stuff the tubes that came stock in mine were ruby and jj's. Bought this jewel right here at sweetwater from nick raffaele very nice guy. close [-]

Peavey Classic 30/112

I just purchased this amp Feb 2008 and it Rocks right out of the box. This amp came stock with JJ EL84's and JJ 12ax7's. I play Country, Blues and Classic Rock and Prefer this sound over my Fender 6... read more [+]5 Twin Reissue. Comparatively the clean is a little grittier but a little more Rock n Roll at the same time. And this thing weighs 25 ibs lighter. The stock speaker sounds great with this amp and is a Peavey Spec speaker built by Eminence in the U.S.... It works very well in a band situation. I've plugged in an Epiphone Valve Jr cabinet that I have dropped an Eminence Patriot Heat into and it gives it an even rounder tone with more bottom. I put my RP350 and other pedals away and at the gigs just use this amp for clean and dirty. Awesome amp, American Made and highly recommended. close [-]

Great Amp

by Tony from South Bend, IN

Music Background: Hobbyist playing 40 yrs.
The C30 amp can give you really nice cleans but can also give you natural overdriven tones without pedals. This amp is plenty loud enough to play in a band in small clubs and venues. It sounds good ... read more [+]with either single coil or humbucker pickups. It is a good amp for blues, rock, or country. The C30 appears to be a well built amp that will be able to handle the road.

When shopping for an amp I was looking for a low wattage amp that would give me clean tones and overdriven tones for blues/rock without the use of pedals. I was also looking for the amp to be light weight, could be played at bedroom levels, club levels, or played in a studio. I compared this amp to several other small amps such as the Egnator Rebel 30, Fender Blues Jr, Marshall Class 5, Tiny Terror, etc.. I liked the tone of the Peavey over all the amps I tried. Really love the dirty channel and I control the amount of overdrive with the volume on my guitar.

This amp does everything I wanted it to do and it is a great amp for a reasonable price. I wished it had a master volume, a standby switch, a channel selecter pedal, and a presence control like my C50. I also wished the amp had a little more bottom end which adding an extension speaker to it may resolve. The biggest disappoint of this amp is that I'm getting a little tube rattle.

I've been playing for 40 years, played a lot of different amps over the years, and I always comeback to Peavey and the C30 is a good amp.

Overall I would highly recommend this amp and I would recommend shopping at Sweetwater. Sweetwater carries quality products, has knowledgable sales personnal and support, and they have great a repair department which I've used for another amp and guitar. close [-]
