Good buy for the money but you still need a guitar.

I didn't have money for both, so I decided to get the amp first, and the guitar later.

She sounds really good.

I've heard the ValveKings really shine when you invest a little more money in some hotter tubes and a better speaker like a Celestion Vintage 30 or an Eminence Governor.

I'm considering one myself...

Congrats on your new amp! I've never played the Valveking, but I'm a Peavey guy. They make great amps, & are a great value. I like the enclosure for the output tubes. Too many tube combos leave the tubes exposed.

Now save up your $$ & get yourself an EBMM guitar!!!

Nice little amp... I too have heard good comments about them - Peavey can work up some great amps when they want to... I second the guitar thing, tho'

I've looked at those. the Class A to A/B voicing change looks neat. Please post real world review for us. Sounded really good the 15 minutes I spent with one in a crowded music store, but I didn't really get to give it a good workout
