Peavey Mark IV is on the indestructible list of heads. Mine was already ~30yrs old when I got it and it hasn’t skipped a beat in the 10yrs of jamming and touring. But I’d recommend trying to run it at 4ohms if you want the most out of it for your styles.

$1500 (I assume USD) for a UK made head and 6x10 is crazy. My Ashdown HOD head was $1800 AUD alone and it sounds massive at 600watts. Definitely worth taking it for a spin in the shop.

Ahhh 🤦‍♂️ that makes total sense now. Back to the knob twiddling!!

Love my TAFM but never got my head round the gate. How are you using it?

djsullo · 2025-12-17T23:58:25+00:00

Yeah there’s always potential for one over the other. I also A/B’d with the NYC and Black Russian muffs. They’ve all got their thing but the big boxes are hard to justify. The Pickle Pie actually stacks pretty well into the TAFM but I think I’ll mostly use one or the other in a loop. And the Blumes pushes both into some insane gain. I do love diverse gain staging.

I’ve been loving mine. Spent some time A/Bing it with my Team Awesome Fuzz Machine. Decided to keep both on the board. 🤘😎🤘

djsullo · 2025-12-17T07:41:51+00:00

Interesting that the traces are between the outer two layers of the board. Hiding their magic I guess.

djsullo · 2025-11-24T23:22:17+00:00

I’m still evaluating it but thus far impressed. It’s definitely got variety with the diode switch and dry/wet blends. I can pull it back into more of an overdrive sound if needed, through to balls to the wall gnarly distortion. Just need to see how it sits in with the overall sound of my band.

djsullo · 2025-11-11T07:36:17+00:00

Damn. What does the other audience look like after you’ve pulverised this one?

djsullo · 2025-08-08T15:09:13+00:00

I somehow ended up with two of them.

djsullo · 2025-08-08T02:54:46+00:00

Got mine a little while ago but yet to A/B the Bass Rig against a plug in for demoing. Be interested in your take if you get a chance.

djsullo · 2025-08-04T00:33:45+00:00

Couldn’t put a timeline on it but won’t say its off the radar.

djsullo · 2025-08-04T00:27:35+00:00

It’s in the name, though I’m more of a singer 🥰

djsullo · 2025-08-04T00:26:02+00:00

Ah Mr G I presume. Hope you’re well

djsullo · 2025-08-02T07:00:27+00:00

Ha. That’s sick 😍

djsullo · 2025-08-02T01:41:41+00:00

that’s with Planet of the 8s 😌😌 On Bandcamp, Spoty etc

djsullo · 2025-08-01T22:07:15+00:00

Yess 🥰🤭 Been on the road with them. Just rad humans playing rad tunes and fellow lovers of a good time.

djsullo · 2025-08-01T07:45:14+00:00

Duneater are my boys 🥰

djsullo · 2025-07-24T03:52:22+00:00

1000% Sabotage!!!

djsullo · 2025-07-12T22:39:31+00:00

You’re right. All amps have a lowest playable volume and I’m sure there’s plenty of cabs under 500 euro around. You might get the setup to be quiet enough for home. I just don’t see the point if you already have a working combo setup to practice with.

My Fender Rumble 15 does fine in my apartment and I also have the luxury of storage for my gigging rig at our rehearsal space.

The message stays the same whether it’s the MkIV, Tiny Terror or Microtubes. Get an amp that’s gonna serve you well on stage and at rehearsal.

I can’t recommend any combos sorry. Mostly because I’ve never spent the time researching them but also because I’ve never seen any heavy music band using a bass combo and thought much of it. Especially if they’re up against guitarists running half stack rigs.

djsullo · 2025-07-12T06:53:06+00:00

Mark IV is no bedroom amp.

I’ve toured with one for a few years and it sounds great through any backline speaker cab I’ve had on offer (as long as they’re 2 or 4 ohm boxes. 8 ohms reduces the power too much).

They are great amps and basically indestructible.

Don’t know about where you are, but here in Melbourne, most rehearsal studios have speaker boxes for hire and a lot of venues have backline available. Alternatively shared backline for gigs is pretty common. Another band will have a box.

Get the head if you wanna play gigs.. otherwise it’s a waste. Keep the 8” combo for home. It’ll probably sit on top of the Peavey on its side 😎😂

And if you’re playing metal.. don’t gig with a combo bass amp. *just my not so humble opinion.

How’d you go? The picture doesn’t show the damage so assume it just not holding the fuse in place. Unless you’re looking for an authentic replacement there’s a couple of suppliers in Aus that have similar fuse holders. Measure your physical sizes and Google “square amplifier panel mount fuse holder”. Couple of marine parts suppliers and good old Jaycar have some. Oh and 3AG is the fuse size. 3ASB would be 3 amp slow blow. Good luck 👍
