Hello,

I have not used my amp for a couple of months. I have been doing my practicing and lessons straight out of my RP255 into my headphones.

I have had some time with the wife and kids out of the house the last few days and have been using the amp. I cannot get the tone to sound anything like I am getting out of the headphones. It does not sound bad, but not what I want.

I have a small, old, Peavey backstage amp. For what I need an amp for it works. Just wanted to know where to start, or if I am asking for something that is not obtainable.

Thanks,
Brian S.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I will just live with it.

I used to have one of those Peavey Backstage. Pretty sweet though for a solid state amp, it was my first amp so I guess the feelings aint gone. wink.gif
Kind of buzzy distorion when too much preamp gain but the cleans were quote ok.

Don't expect it to sound professional. Headphone playing from one of those digital units can be rather rewarding, hetting the tone right into the ear beats an old solid state.

Perhaps you can try connecting the PR255 into the Peavey and use some effects from it.


This is what I do, and it does not sound like it does through the headphones. smile.gif
